EA has fought against claims the publisher tried to acquire Oddworld Inhabitants in the early 2000s. Spokesman Jeff Brown gave a stirring response to Lorne Lanning’s previously published interview.
Lanning had indicated how badly OI wanted to stay clear of EA’s grasp.
”When you say that to us we go ‘f*** you very much’, quite frankly. That’s not a sustainable model, that’s a hostile acquisition,” Lanning said.
”That’s why we had to strive to get independent. Rather than get into bed with someone we knew was a horrible bed partner we said ‘let’s stay virgins for longer.’”
Tune in same time next week, folks.
