Vivendi Will Not Help Ubisoft After All

Posted by Zonk on from the didn't-report-that-rumor dept.

Arnaud writes "A rumor saying Vivendi Universal Games could help Ubisoft against Electronic arts began to spread on the web yesterday. This information has been denied by Vivendi: "In view of the rumors reported in the press, Vivendi Universal denies that any negotiations are taking place concerning the takeover of Ubisoft." The amazing thing is how widely reported this rumour was, to the point where the real story was drowned out by the rumour.

    I used to work at Red Storm Entertainment, and Ubisoft took them over. Is karma just coming around?

    // I don't know if ubisoft buying red storm was a good or bad thing, I had already left by then.
