About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

Ubisoft and EA Hold Preliminary Talks

by Judy on Feb. 16, 2005 @ 10:04 a.m. PST

According to the Wall Street Journal, Ubisoft and Electronic Arts are holding talks two months after Ubisoft dismissed EA's acquisition of a near-20 percent stake in the French video game maker as "hostile." While there is no official comment from either side, the talks are still preliminary and running parallel with other approaches that family-run Ubisoft is making, such as the recent 10% capital reinforcement by the Guillemot controlled Guillemot Brothers S.A, to bring their shares up to 22%.
