The timing of the news is particularly interesting, given that SCi last week said that it had rejected an unspecified acquisition offer, though it remains unknown if the publisher was talking about Infogrames or some other mystery suitor. Not long after, SCi accepted a £60 million investment from Warner Bros. as part of what it called a strategic relationship.
We know how you feel Infogrames (or is it Atari?). You put yourself out there, and you're vulnerable. But thankfully, it's not as if you don't have options.

The comment section looks lonely, so I'm giving it some love.

Grah! All these stupid mergers and talks about stocks and market! I only care if they're going to butcher something I love because of it, but I hate the unending speculation!
If I wanted to hear about Video games and stocks, it'd better be about Super Market Crash: Rogue Analyst on the Nintendo Wii!
Y'know, the one with the pointy haired guy who uses magic powers to pick stocks and destroys evil Alien companies by buying them out, with a market value reducing laser beam.

I hope Infogrames trys again to buy SCI because with Phil at the lead of this company too Edios and SCI would be back to the glory days in no time.
Plus Atari needs all the help they can get.
