I changed Chris Parker so that it doesn't now link to the article on the British actor Christopher Parker. I think it's reasonable to assume that they're not the same person. If anyone knows otherwise, feel free to undo the change.

I found out that Sega has purchased Obsidian Entertainment and thought it would be important to add this, as they are now working on a MMORPG for Sega, while Neverwinter Nights 2 is still in development.

[edit] Sega didn't buy Obsidian.

Sega and Obsidian just collaboratively develop an original role playing game... I think that Obsidian is a developer and Sega is a publisher. Obsidian is still a independent developer.

According to Feargus Urquhart, an RPG Obsidian is developing with Sega is called Project Georgia and single player, not MMORPG.

Looks like someone beat me to the explanation.

Edited and merged the Sega entry into the Games section. A Blue's News page that seemed to spark the confusion has since been corrected. I've also removed the buy-out reference. We only know of a one-shot development partnership, not a merger/purchase.

[edit] 33 Employees?

I work QA in Obsidian, and we've got more than 33 people just in here. I know Wiki looks down on self-editing, if I got an updated staff number would it be okay to put it in myself? Not like you can POV or opinionate a number...
