bioware made baldur's gate; black isle only published it. bioware doesn't even have a relationship with BIS anymore since they both sued each other.

BIS hasn't really made anything lately except for the new fallout action rpg and baldur's gate dark alliance 2. honestly, the last true rpg they made was icewind dale 2 (which was pretty fucking good but not omg amazing).

it's not really much of a loss, except they were making fallout 3 and now interplay has shelved it.

good job on laying everyone off like 2 weeks before christmas though.

I thought that didn't sound right that BIS made Baldur's Gate however at 1am I didn't really feel like researching it further.

Thanks for the clarification.
