Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 I don't keep track of the news. Good to know that EA won't f*ck this up like they've done with many games in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daangelo29 5 Report post Posted November 28, 2009 not true they couldnt afford rockstar You missed the other posts like "EA is a wealthy company and could easily own Take Two and most likely will have some type of involvement with them b4 the year is up." Even if EA managed to buy Rockstar, Rockstar would still be the one making their games. Buying a company doesn't also mean "erasing it from existence". The only concern we might have is that EA might do the "Disney treatment" to Rockstar's games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mini-Me 24 Report post Posted November 30, 2009 Grand Theft Auto: Sim City, huh? But I guess this was enough off-topic now . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2009 (edited) Actually they had a sim city driving game. It's called Street's of Sim City and the driving is kinda like GTA. Where it's an open map. Edited November 30, 2009 by Joe Statler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluespace88 9 Report post Posted November 30, 2009 So what, you make your own city and drive in it and watch it change over time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 no the maps are premade. They're sim city 2000 maps. The rating is 4.4 out of 10 on GAMESPOT, it's not even worth mentioning unless it's for a comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluespace88 9 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 was talking about gta:sim city, but guess you missed the sarcasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mini-Me 24 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 IF you could play regular Sim City and then switch to 3rd person view in order to do stuff like chasing criminals, fight fires do street races ( on randomly chosen tracks) (and more) that'd be a good mix to my mind.

EarthwormJim 1 Report post Posted December 1, 2009 im pretty sure that all that would happen if EA bought rockstar is the games would have better funding and the developers (most likely the same developers) will get better paychecks. thats all disney is doing with marvel because they know not to f**k with a good thing, and i should hope EA knows the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iMaster 0 Report post Posted December 2, 2009 Disney learnt that after Pixar seperated from them, which was a decent nutshot, so after they got Pixar back they stopped messing with their purchases' business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike 214 Report post Posted December 12, 2009 They won't allow that. You remember this is a corporation (that just got bought out by EA) so of course they have their secrets. You got a link to something official stating that EA bought Take-Two Interactive? All I see are stories for 2008 which never came of anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2009 (edited) Thanks for putting me on the spot. But in my defense the info. about EA buying Take-two didn't come from a website, but a friend of mine. I'll make sure not to trust that friend's information anymore. but here's one from March 2009. The purchase probably is still in the works. OK now you can close it.
