REDMOND, Wash. -- Oct. 29, 2002 -- Microsoft Corp. today announced that Micro Forté, which specializes in computer and console video games development, has signed a deal with Microsoft Game Studios to create an exclusive Xbox (TM) game to be published by Microsoft.
"Microsoft Game Studios seeks out the best developers in the world to partner with, and our relationship with Micro Forté adds yet another high-caliber development house to our roster," said Ed Fries, vice president of Xbox Game Content at Microsoft. "I can't wait to see the results of its extraordinary game development skills combined with the power of the Xbox."
"With every new project, our goal is to push the envelope in game development. We believe Microsoft shares this philosophy and look forward to working with it to bring gamers even more stellar Xbox titles to enjoy," said John De Margheriti, president and CEO of Micro Forté.
Founded in 1985, Micro Forté is responsible for developing such critically acclaimed hits as "Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel," a squad-based, third-person tactical combat game with role-playing elements. In addition to creating the Australian Game Developers Conference and the Game Developers Association of Australia, the company founded the Academy of Interactive Entertainment Ltd.
