Gamasutra quotes Ubi's CFO, Alain Martinez, as saying the company was "a bit mad [about]" losing the deal. "We were a bit disappointed," Martinez admitted, though he said Ubisoft is moving ahead with other planned acquisitions. "We have about three deals within [the] five million euro range that we are negotiating," he revealed, stating that, "Most probably, one or two of them will be closed in the next three or four months." One of those wouldn't happen to be Eidos, would it?

It would be interesting if the other one was Valve.

I'm pretty glad Ubisoft didn't acquire them. I love Cryptic Studios to death and I wish Ubisoft would DIAF already. Imagine a casual MMO *shudder*
