It's like after their so-so impact over at the Game Developers Conference a week ago, and they've decided to make the big splash later for some belated industry reverberations. Shane Kim, after a pretty easy breakfast conversation at the 2007 GDC, had a huge wad of details to puff about BioWare and first-party title releases in a video interview.

The juiciest tidbit is that Microsoft is pursuing to purchase BioWare, probably to enter the MMO slice of the gaming pie. Now aside from going MMO, PC, and Xbox 360 all the way, the guys behind NeverWinter Nights have also been working on a PlayStation 3 title. Now it's unsure what's going to happen to this now-confirmed title, but it might be a PlayStation 3 port of Dragon Age according to 1Up.

But you can guess that if Microsoft had to blow big bucks over to Elevation just to purchase the development studio, you could be sure that the game will be meeting the scrapped end.

Among other things on the pretty side, Xbox 360 owners have a busy, busy year ahead of them in 2007, with Forza 2 coming in May, Shadowrun shipping in June, Grand Theft Auto IV arriving in October, and Lost Odyssey set to vacation in December.

While their GDC revelation over their ambitious title Mass Effect made a "massive" impact, Kim isn't keen on hyping up the title with a tentative release date. It's the same thing for similar highly-anticipated titles Halo 3 and Project Gotham Racing 4, two great games clearing up this 2007 yet don't have a tentative release window open. However, it's a hope that these titles could ship by July or August (for Mass Effect), September (for Halo 3), and November (for PGR4).
