Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Ubisoft has answered to the taking over of their shares by calling it a "hostile act" , so they have asked for financial backup from the french government... Backup was given, but not from the french government, surprisingly from a rival company, Infogrames which stated that they will do whatever it takes to stop this growing hydra.... What I just wrote is official, don't remember the source though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gryph Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 ................. /me walks away and goes to a google search engine and trys to find more review on upcoming games<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why don't you Google up some lessons on business and how it works. It'll give you an idea how insanely competative and cut throat the business world is. And what happened to the great zeal of learning to be part of game industry you exhibited a few weeks ago? You may think it's mean, but you should seriously educate yourself before you make a fool of yourself in the real world. Online forums don't matter.

Gryph Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 Hey man, that's how I learned. I would be a failure if I didn't learn algebra in 4th grade and geometry in 5th. No joke. And those tactics worked, I'm glad I was pushed like that. My father always tells me what good is knowledge if you can't teach it to someone. That's the kind of family I have... Where science is a dinner topic, so boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I just wrote is official, don't remember the source though...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Latest Game informer says the situation is being watched by the French government, which regularly helps french businesses in this way. They want to preserve the deals ubisoft has with other french companies, and by extension their own economy, I suppose. Ubsisoft itself is considering a buyout of Eidos as a line of defense. How buying out a crappy company like Eidos is going to save them, I'm not entirely sure. Infogrames has said it is willing to help but (as of the Game Informer writing), nothing solid has been laid down. Chairman Bruno Bonnel told reuters "When Ubisoft has defined the limits within which it is prepared to work, they know we are ready to listen." and "I hope Ubisoft will find ways to defend itself so that Infogrames does not become the last bastion in the European video games community. It would be a pity to see great European creations end up in a relatively hegemonic US conglomerate." While I can't help but imagine he said that first sentence with a sly smile, I can't agree more on the second one. It has also been rumored that Vivendu Universal, also a French company, has made mention of a merger with Ubisoft. This was denied by Vivendi, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I officially took Algebra in 8th grade and Geometry in 9th. I'm just saying you should take initiative outside of school to broader your horizons. Of course, I'm not saying you start learning crap well beyond your reach (as I did ) but you should start taking some outside interest in that. Damn, now I'm being all preachy. Just ignore me or you'll become a workaholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
