It's not , I posted a bunch of stuff in another thread but the quick facts are :

Ubisoft is valued at 4 Billion Dollars, EA would have to offer a substantial premium over that.
A huge chunk of Ubisoft voting stocks are held by private investors and are not for sale( the Guilmaut brothers that run Ubisoft).

Ubisoft stock has gone up 240% over the last 2 years while EA stock has been flat so EA would have a tough job convincing investors that they can run the company better than it is currently run...

Ubisoft is making money and their sales are improving dramatically ( up 44% on holyday quarter), EA has trouble just making a profit....

 

Heck even if EA was offering a 64% premium (which is what they are offering for Take Two) I woudn't take it as a Ubisoft shareholder. With AC2 and all the others games in the pipeline, Ubisoft is bound to appreciate by more than that in next 2 years.....



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
