Best Graphics Cards For The Money: June '09

This month, ATI's new Radeon HD 4770 is missing in action, since online stores are not only unable to keep it in stock, but also de-listing it completely. With violent movements in pricing, though, it'd have been taken off the recommended list anyway. Read more

Great interview, It's just too bad that game piracy is having such an effect on the PC market...to lose such a big developer to the consoles is a big hit...I hope they knock it out of the park with Dragon Age though.

Eh? What is that you say? BioWare has yet to release a game that ended up only on consoles. Sure some of them were console-exclusive at first, like Jade Empire and Mass Effect, but BioWare did end up releasing those games for PC, even if it was 18+ months after the console version's release. ;) I think their first game that won't be for PC will be Sonic Chronicles.

In any case, here is the list of the seven BioWare development projects that I believe Mr. Muzyka referred to (listed in the order I think they will be released in):
- Mass Effect for PC
- Sonic Chronicles
- Dragon Age
- Unannounced next-gen game
- BioWare MMORPG
- Mass Effect II
- LucasArts/BioWare project

You forgot that they are planning more DLC for Mass Effect 1 so that has to be at least one of the projects they are currently working on.
