Before they were a part of Electronic Arts and bringing Dragon Age: Origins to the masses, BioWare was small and scrappy. And one of their founders walked around the office barefoot.

The reporter meets company founders Ray Muzyka, Greg Zeschuk, and Augustine Yip.

The common bonds led them to form BioWare in 1995 with about $ 100,000 in start-up capital. However, even before they formalized the company, they had started development on their first piece of software in 1993. While they were still residents in family practice, they put together a computer tutorial for the U of A’s faculty of medicine. … Muzyka notes that BioWare is a showcase for the three doctors to express themselves creatively. “That’s a good part of why we do this, because in u31 เข้าสู่ระบบ medicine to some extent, you have to stifle that (creative urge) ทางเข้า winner55 ผ่านโทรศัพท์ มือ ถือ quite a bit.” Since then, BioWare’s made some big games. Baldur’s Gate. Knights of the Old Republic. Mass Effect. Now Dragon Age. I’m guessing the initial investment has been recovered. [PIC]
