EA Renews Digital Illusions Deal

Posted by Zonk on from the if-at-first-you-don't-succeed dept.

We reported last week on EA's bid on DICE, the makers of BF1942, and their lack of success at winning the shareholders over. This week GamesIndustry.biz is reporting that EA has revised the proposal in hopes of swaying those finicky stockholders. From the article: "However, EA's latest move conditions the offer upon a lower acceptance level of more than 50 per cent of the total number of shares - representing more than 50 per cent of the capital and votes in DICE after dilution due to an employee option programme launched in 2002." Update: 12/21 19:18 GMT by Z : Fixed broken link.

    The revision of the proposal merely links back to the old article in Slashdot. I think maybe that it was meant to link to actual news.
