LOL. I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully they'll be a BIT more successful in convincing their stockholders than Trip was. :O)

I hope Ubi Soft will remain independant... It is one of the last french video game company. And I really don't want to have only EA on the PC market.

I wouldn't be afraid of a total takeover by EA upon Ubi Soft, since 20% of total shareholding in Ubi is quite insignificant.

Besides the rest of the 80% is probably scattered troughout France and the province of Quebec in tiny bundles of 1, 2, and 3% each shareholder. EA has to successfully invite all of them to a shareholdings meeting place in order to make their intentions to buy at least half of all their current investments to gain absolute control over Ubi Soft. I don't think that would ever be possible. Such an attempt to do so would be perceived as an act of absolute desperation to gain control over a viable competitor.

So does our egos and opinions onto everything.
