Then you would know what jerks they are. They are worse than Lucas for choking the life out of their games. Look at a lot of their computer games. Some of them are just complete crap. You can blame the developer if you want to, but as tightly as they hold the reigns, they have a lot of that responsibilty, too.
They don't do what Interplay (who held the license for all D&D based games) does "make me a D&D game, I don't care what you do..." Which is how you end up with crappy games like the second Pool of Radiance, but you will also get something halfway decent like some of the Baldur's Gate console games. They (GW) are the people who update their rules 5 times just because. They will ship a whole system and not even include an army list.
There is the potential for a lot of good things to happen, but there is also the chance that they will pull an SWG.
