EA To Propose Ubisoft Buyout Too?

I'm not too positive but...does EA make really good games? I mean besides sports? Cuz if not...I'd really rather not have crappy games being released by a company that has just too much money

Is EA trying to become the Microsoft of games? Zero competition, and totally screw the industry sideways with worthless trash games? YAY! Hope they have a guy who wants his stapler back and burns down the building. :P

EA is more like Sega and Atari... Go away, fade into history already! -.-

Please oh Please Ubisoft, say no!

I know I shouldnt like EA, and i dont.. But I do like some of the games like Battlefield. I dont see Burnout as a EA game, though.. and I KNOW im going to get flamed here..

But Burnout.. Paradise city? im bored. Its fustrating, Im annoyed, its so close to being perfect, but inches might as well be miles. And I do blame EA, I blame them because I think that Criterion probably would of delayed the game to get a few things bang on, but with the advertising at stake, i can see EA pushing that title...

so should we expect the same with GTA and Ubisoft games if they do buy them out? EA dont make great games, they dont make great decisions either.. its the companies under their belt that make great games, but its EA that pushes them in to bad and tight corners.

Do we really want this to happen with GTA? see how TT needs the revenue from GTA4? they could of forced GTA4 out on the streets months ago I reckon, probably a decission that EA would of made, but they didnt. they wanted to get it right and looks like they have.

If EA get their hands on TT and Ubisoft I really do fear for the quality of those games, and the amount of advertising that will go on. EA are unethical when it comes to advertising and just shouldnt happen unless they warn the consumers on the packaging and sell the games at a discounted price because of the advertising involved.

lol... but that wont happen.

I just thought about something. EA proposed $26/share for Take2, which it was around what, $16-$17 a share? Then Monday it jumped up. I assume EA has stocks in Take2 as well as Ubisoft. Wouldn't that technically mean by boosting public attention that raised the stock saying "this is what we value it at" and shareholders themselves boost it up. EA makes 50% gain on those shares. They can then sell those share, back out of it... Hmmmm... -.- Profit while messing with stocks. I wonder if they're going to value Ubisoft's shares up, and if their stocks will go up as a result of that. I think I been watching too much Ghost in The Shell SAC recently xD

its funny, a friend said something to me about this.. he said imagine if EA brought Ubisoft and Take-Two and all the other game houses it wanted, then two years down the line Microsoft buy EA.. wouldnt that be funny.

I didnt laugh.
