EA Doesn’t Buy Take 2

So much for analysts. The self-imposed deadline for Electronic Arts to buy Take 2 has come and gone.

EA set Friday as the expiration date for its offer to buy shares of Take-Two stock for 26 dollars each. Take-Two shares were priced slightly above that amount in after-hours trading.

“There is nothing going on right now,” Take-Two spokeswoman Meg Maise said when asked about the status of the bid Friday afternoon. “It is in (EA’s) court.”

EA did not return AFP requests for comment.

With such titles as Civilization Revolution, Fallout 3, and a BioShock movie on the way, Take 2 may have proved to be too big for EA to eat.
