Yes, there was a game called Omikron: The Nomad Soul, starring a virtual David Bowie, released in 1999 for Microsoft Windows.

No, the game was not made by Microsoft. Suggesting that Bill Gates had anything to do with it is like calling Apple CEO Tim Cook the mastermind behind Facebook because the social network runs on iPhone.

For the record, an independent French developer made the game and Eidos published it. It got mediocre reviews and most of the publicity was due to Bowie's involvement.

It's getting so meta in here that (((Mark Zuckerburg))) is already talking to his (((lawyers))) about suing you for use of his company's new name, or at least that's what I hear from a conspiracy theory friend of mine.
