Criterion bit the dust earlier this year and now the gaming nazis have made a move on the last bastion of gaming creativity Ubi Soft. They now own 20% of Ubi and it's only a matter of time until Ubi fall to EA completely. I don't like to predict doom but this year has proved that no developer is safe. Acclaim went bankrupt, EA and Microsoft have been buying up everyone in sight and even Sega fell to slot machine makers Sammy. Finally Rare seemingly disappeared without trace after the dire Grabbed by the Ghoulies. Chances are 2005 will bring more of the same.
