Rumor: Ubisoft buys out Eidos aka Prince Lara Craft together at last? | Forums

[Zapages]

There are quite a few Eidos games showing up on the support website for UBISOFT. Just type the game title (thief, hitman, tomb raider, etc.) in the search box.

Check it out by using the ubi customer support help

Wow maybe Tomb Raider will actually be good now

It may just be because Ubi may have published editions of them , they've done deals with other publishers to re issue their games, or release them in certain markets.
I have a few myself, I have Microsoft's Age of Empires 1 Gold Edition for example, and if you look on the Ubi support site, you'll find it on there, along with Age of Mythology.
If you check the titles on the PC alone, you'll find quite a few games from other publishers that Ubi had deals with.

This is verbatim of what Shamrock said on Neogaf

I'm going to go with BTO as they probably had Ubi publish some of their games somewhere at sometime.

Crystal Dynamics develop Tomb Raider
If Ubisoft buy Eidos, it won't make a difference will it?

[Yolkboy]

Since the current project is so far along, the only thing it would probably affect is where the money comes from to fund it. After that though, depending on how the contract is written up, the direction (art, concept, etc.) could be in Ubi's hands for the final decision.

I'm gonna be honest I've only played Angel of Darkness and well you can probably tell I didn't get very far. I remember thinking that Lara looked ridiculous with those sunglasses

Actually, I don't think that will affect TR unless the developer is changed, too.

And if that happens (changing the dev) that would be bad, because CrystalD are just "finding" Tomb Raider and changing the dev again means that we will get a game that doesn't have anything to do with TR.
