EA in Takeover Talks with Ubisoft

Voodoo Extreme has the word that EA and Ubisoft are in talks regarding a possible takover price for the French company. From the article: " The talks are still preliminary and running parallel with other approaches that family-run Ubisoft is making to broker solutions that might shake off a bid from EA but they could be the beginning of an eventual agreement between the two, the paper said, citing people familiar with the situation." Gamespot states that EA denies the topic of takeover is on the block during the talks. No word on what such a development would have on Ubisoft's relationship with the Canadian government.

    That's how it works in other industries where projects are managed properly.

    In industries/companies where "Project Management" is a punchine to some joke, it is usually the norm to work insane hours, make lots of mistakes, and waste time & money. Oh, and have "deadlines" that are fantasy at best.
