The 20% stakeholder confirms its backing of the proposed acquisition; Eidos shareholders to vote next month...
Last week, Square Enix revealed that a bid to acquire UK publisher Eidos had been made, which would see Lara Croft, Agent 47, and augmented humans fall under the House of Cloud Strife.
Although the deal had the strong backing of the Eidos board, there were two potential banana skins: a vote by Eidos shareholders, and the opinion of Warner Bros, which currently has a 20% in the publisher.
Today, one of those barriers has been removed, with Warner Bros throwing their weight behind the deal. The US giant had been seen by many as a rival to Square Enix for Eidos, but now means that over a third of shareholders now support the deal, with the rest due to vote at an EGM at the end of March.
In an official statement, Square Enix confirmed: “...it has an obtained irrevocable undertaking from Time Warner Entertainment Limited to vote in favour of the Scheme.”

Hopefully, now they've put that particular storyline to bed, Crystal Dynamics can concentrate on evolving the franchise again.

yeah, its the difficult economy thats to blame, not the god awful game play, rubbish plot and repetition of a franchise. The words horse, dead and flogging, spring to mind.

Odd review. Anyway I've been playing Underworld for the entire weekend and it's definitely worth your money. I bought this, Left 4 Dead and Dead Space this Friday but have only played the latter 2 for about an hour combined. All my time is being spent with the lovely Lara Croft. It's how exploration really should feel.

$th August Anon - Core are no more. After the Angel of Darkness fiasco they released one forgetable game as a new studio for Capcom that sunk without a trace. They ten got into DVD games, but that didn't last long. The only thing left of them was acquired by fellow UK studio Rebellion quite a long time ago. Toby Gard is the only link between old Lara and new Lara.

KURTIS:D! KURTIS LISTEN TO US! why crystal dynamic dont read forums? like this!

Why can't Tomb Raider have both Core and Crystal Dynamics making games? I mean Ratchet and Clank have got 2 different developers making games: Insomniac Games(PS2 and PS3) and High Impact Games(PSP)! CORE could continue the AoD Triology and Crystal Dynamics doing Legend Triology! Doesn't anyone else agree with me? PLEASE REPLY!
