It all seemed pretty inevitable from the start of partnering with EA that they would eventually get taken over, so nothing new about that.

Somehow I thought this had already happened. Gee, I can hear it now: No DICE, we aren't going to buy you until you make us at least a solid billion dollars in profit. What's that? You have already done that? Ok then, I meant to say a trillion. We won't buy you until we gross a trillion on the franchise. Huh? Did that too? FINE! EA will purchase your dinky little company and replace you all with low paid programming hacks to carry on your name.
