Ubisoft CEO Speaks out Against EA Move
Gamespot is reporting that Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has spoken out against EA's "hostile action". From the article: "Considering the industry practice of communicating informally about such decisions, we were disappointed, to say the very least, that EA chose not to inform us of their specific plans beforehand." Further, Voodoo Extreme is reporting that a financial report may suggest the French government is going to assist Ubisoft in staying out from under EA's thumb.
No, really.
The heaven 500 was getting an all-star race...
.Jesus hugged his precious child then revealed his perfect plan
for the racing departed, heroes of the track, with nerves of steel
and sitting on the pole, was a cat named Neil
Adam Petty was there with his beautiful smile
Kenny Irvan determined to finish in style.
Lee Petty was glowing with grandfatherly pride,
with Davey and Clifford both in a new ride
Fireball Roberts floated in on a cloud,
while Tony Roper waved to the heavenly crowd
Morrosso and Nemecheck, then Tim Richmond appeared
Alan Kulwicki strapped in while the racing fans cheered
The honorary started for this heavenly race,
Ralph Earnhardt was chosen, a tear on his face
But the red flag flew, it had just begun,
and every eye was open wide and looking to the son
A last minute entry was the cause of the delay
the fans were instructed to kneel and pray
The heavens turned black and the clouds turned dark
the lightening was brilliant, the thunder did bark
Then out of the rumbling for all to see
The clouds formed a number... a black number three
The heavenly fans then erupted with pride
and welcomed this star who had recently died
With a bolt of lightening Dale Earnhardt arrived
and he stood before Jesus, his spirit revived
"I brought you home to let you know that I'm your biggest fan!"
The intimidator was needed for this heavenly race
leaving all of earthly fans with honor and grace
Ralph Earnhardt stepped forward and embraced his son
then whispered in his ear, "let's go have some fun!"
As Ralph stood proud the green flag flew
The crown went wild and the tension grew
And just like salvation the admission was free
and every eye focused on the black number 3
When the checkered flag dropped not a dry eye remained:
It was a photo finish and Jesus explained...
There are no losers on this heavenly track
This was a welcome party for the man in black
First Post Mother Fuckers!
gotcha!

"You're right," Fisheye says. "I should have set it on 'whip' or 'chop.'"
