LucasArts and BioWare Corp. today announced that they have entered into an agreement to create an interactive entertainment product. Normally we wouldn’t cover this because both are private companies. But BioWare is in the process of being acquired by Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS), and we have covered how EA wants to come up with more answers to the success of the Halo franchise. This is not the first such agreement between the two companies.
The product, details of which will be unveiled at a later date, will be developed and published by BioWare and LucasArts, and will push the boundaries of the gaming market by utilizing the strengths of both companies to deliver an innovative, high-quality experience.
It sure sounds like a new MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game) is coming down the pipe. These and other companies are soon to be covered in our Special Situation Investing Newsletter because of some radical changes that are coming in the video game sector in 2008. Bungie Studios is on the path to independence, at least somewhat. Certain previews will be made to our free email distribution list.

Credit Card Companies Are Doing Something Nuts
Credit card companies are at war. The biggest issuers are handing out free rewards and benefits to win the best customers.
It’s possible to find cards paying unlimited 1.5%, 2%, and even more today. That’s free money for qualified borrowers, and the type of thing that would be crazy to pass up. Those rewards can add up to thousands of dollars every year in free money, and include other benefits as well.
We’ve assembled some of the best credit cards for users today. Don’t miss these offers because they won’t be this good forever.
Flywheel Publishing has partnered with CardRatings for our coverage of credit card products. Flywheel Publishing and CardRatings may receive a commission from card issuers.
