UH OHS FOR UBISOFT
Well it seems that EA is really trying to become the next American conglomerate. The also have their eyes on Ubisoft, and after the questionable reviews of Assassin's Creed, I doubt much will change if this bid is successful.

Gee, I wonder how did EA get so big?

I do notice that most of their racing games like NFS and Burnout play other peoples music.

Uh-oh for chance of being the next American-conglomerate, as xbot said.

Not much of a gamer but mergers are bad for the market.
It's better to have more companies that have unique ideas rather then one big one pushing for a single idea.

I agree with Mike lol. A merger from EA wont make the videogame market any better then it is.

Nope. Rockstar develops the game and Take-Two only publishes them. Take-Two has no say or impact on GTA games. So if EA were to buy Take-Two then GTA would remain the same series.... but we might see some EA billboards in game or something minor like that.

I truly hope it doesn't happen. A conglomerate in the gaming business= not good for gamers.

Take-Two declined the offer I think. Most likely EA will buy them out anyway but for a higher bid.
