Blast UbiSoft!

I have had this major hankering for Might and Magic for about five months now. Ubisoft bought the rights to the Might and Magic franchise from 3dO in thier bankruptcy auctions. That was two years ago. Any news about a new Might and Magic or Heroes of Might and Magic? Nope.

Blast! Why spend 1.3 million on a franchise and then stick it in a drawer? This isn't Hollywood.

I think they did it solely to fuck you over. Its seriously the only logical explanation at this point in time.

Ubi's had problems of their own of late. Since they're one of the few really creative and fairly large outfits still out there (Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia, Rayman, Rainbow Six, Beyond Good and Evil, etc), EA has been trying to buy them out and practically all of Europe is trying to stop it.
