Reverse Midas touch.

Looks like EA overpaid by about $234 million US.

Suckas..................

Another great developer down the toilet. Shame.

I've had a grudge against Codemasters for a while since buying GRID3 and how they handled the community backlash over the removal of the XBOX login for PC Steam users. Their customer service prior to that was just as horrible.

Well, with Take2 they would just make GRID Online and DiRT Online. But with EA they will get closed down after a while. Not much difference. They lost their way a long time ago.
