At least a chunk. Although neither
publisher has commented on the proposed $100 million deal, all sources point to EA buying 20% of Ubisoft's
shares. This comes as little surprise however, since the EA beast has been gobbling up developers, publishers,

name. With the Clancy franchise, Prince of Persia, and a host of other acclaimed titles, Ubisoft definitely fits
the mold.
