• EA buys social games developer KlickNation, renames it BioWare Social
    13 replies, posted
[quote=Gamereactor DK]The time when the Canadian developer Bioware only stood for huge RPG's with deep stories has apparently come to an end, because in the future it will also develop social games. EA has recently acquired KlickNation, Games Industry tells, and this developer will soon be given a new name; Bioware Social. KlickNation has previously made social games such as Super Hero City and Six Gun Galaxy, and will continue to develop Facebook games, and the likes, in the future.[/quote] [url]http://www.gamereactor.dk/nyheder/87152/EA+grundl%E6gger+Bioware+Social/[/url] [url]http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2011-12-02-ea-turns-klicknation-acquisition-into-bioware-social[/url] Nothing big. I just thought it was funny how EA saw fit to name KlickNation after another developer that it has nothing to do with. A blatant attempt at trying to cash in on Bioware's reputation.
Smart move renaming it though. Helps build excitement and may decrease the chances of it failing incredibly hard.
Stick to real games Bioware please.

This craze of attaching "Social" to everything gaming is absurd to me. I mean, there is a "HOOAH!" button that is the analogue of a facebook like in fucking battlefield.
Couldn't bioware do something about this? seems shady.
EA owns BioWare
mass effect. social. spend 1 energy to fire 1 bullet. 1 energy per 5 minutes. yeah that wont work. WAIT ITS A SOCIAL GAME YES IT WILL.
They've got a buzzword in the name of their fucking company. Now we're talking some shit.
