    Who will win!
    I know who I am rooting for...

    Basically, the French government may step in to prevent the buyout of Ubisoft by EA... thank god I say.
    The French government already have pro-games industry legislation in their country, they clearly want to protect Ubisoft from being EA'ed...

    Yea cos if EA win there'll be Tom Clancy games churned out every year and they'll start adding rock music and 'attitude' to Prince of Persia, heaven forbid that were to happen.
