BioWare's upcoming MMORPG needs one million paying subscribers according to analyst.

BioWare's next big thing is without a shadow of a doubt its upcoming MMORPG -- Star Wars: The Old Republic. Working closely with LucasArts and publisher EA, BioWare's new project certainly has massive potential. But according to Sterne Agee analyst Arvind Bhatia, the game will need at least one million paying subscribers to break even. Industry Gamers says as much.

Electronic Arts hasn't shied away from going head-to-head with Activision in the battle for online military shooter supremacy. And according to a new report, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is effectively pulling players from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and making them Battlefield converts.
