@ixaarii, I don't think he's privy to the contracts between BioWare and MSFT. Maybe they (BioWare) have an exclusive for Xbox for ME1, but 2 and 3 are up in the air. There is absolutely nothing that has changed that would cause Patcher to throw out his "prediction" that ME would head to PS3. If anything, EA buying BioWare would be that much more reason for them to stay exclusive to Xbox, as far as I know, there are no giant PS3 exclusives from EA.
While we don't know for sure about the ideas, I don't think that BioWare would give up the last 5 years of development time that they've put into the ME trilogy right away to EA. I don't think that any previous deal would be affected by the EA acquistion; rather, their deal probably takes effect regarding IP developed after a certain date. If that includes ME, we don't know, but I'm very certain it doesn't.
If anything, I think we should be discussing the possibility of KOTOR 3 being multi-platform.
