Bioware to develop for PS3 in-house


Recommended Posts

BioWare plans to do PlayStation 3 development in-house from now on following the positive experience it had working on the console version Dragon Age: Origins (you'll find our review here). "We think it's one of the key platforms, obviously, so we're definitely going to be doing PS3," BioWare final boss Greg Zeschuk told Joystiq when asked whether the studio would take control of PS3 development itself.

"You know, I can't say anything about Mass Effect in that regard but you know, I can definitely say Dragon Age and other things we do will definitely be on PS3.

"It was great going through the experience of making Dragon Age, getting familiar with and understanding the PS3. Again, every platform is different, but now I think we're at the position where future PS3 stuff will be really solid."

Pushed on the issue of Mass Effect 2 for PS3 - the game has only ever been announced for PC and Xbox 360, for which it comes out on 29th January - Zeschuk deflected. "We're not saying anything about Mass Effect for PS3. I don't know anything about that! That's crazy talk. I don't know anything about that," he joked.

Obviously this news will now bring more rumours of Mass Effect coming to the PS3, and after playing the PC version I really hope the game does eventually make it's way to the PS3.

Mass Effect 1 on PS3 coming very early next year, Mass Effect 2 about a month or so after.

i can believe the timeline for ME1, ME2 would probably come later in the year though. On a another note, whatever happened to that "major" game that was suppose to come out for the PS3 in the later half of 09. It was suppose to be a major 360 game that was coming to the PS3, that at the time we all were assuming would be ME1...any word on that?

Ehhh only thing I can think of is people inflating the announcement that ended up being Castle Crashers coming to PSN.

There's very few "major" 3rd party exclusives any more, not like MS owned property is coming to the PS3.

I think that's what it was, although Braid has come, too. Wasn't a big disc-based release.
