Disney acquires Ingition parent company UTV

I thought this said he would report to Angry Bird instead of Andy Bird.

I just love reading how these big corporations like to buy smaller companies right after they get rid of one or two that they already owned. I think there should be a law that if you close company A, and then buy company B less than 3 years later, the employees of B that used to work at A get a huge bonus for ruining their friggin' life.

You know the games Ignition put out don't exactly fit the "Disney mold" even pixar had to tone down their movies.

@pszone oh they will. not looking forward to this.

Disney dont srew this up

Looks like we'll be getting less niche Japanese games now. Well, to be honest, considering the localization ATROCITIES Ignition has committed this may be a good thing. *Thinks of Lux-Pain, Muramasa, and Arc Rise Fantasia and shudders*

As long as they don't screw it like they did with Blackrock Studios i'm fine

@eddie you missed a spelling error in the title - unless "Ingition" is the name you meant

Seems like their expanding in the land of the Rupees!

Nice move by Disney. UTV and UTV games are very famous out here in India..

So are they still publishing Dragons Crown?

Well there goes any chance of Deadly Premonition 2 or El Shaddai 2

UTV? That t.v channel :P

I never played any of those games. Not sure why Disney would waste their money on that company. They were better off keeping Blackrock studio open instead and create some new IP's. I understand why Propaganda Games was shut down. Tron game was complete (it sucked) and there was no need keeping them around. "Pure" & "Split Second" were great games though. Blackrock was a good asset if you ask me. Acquiring UTV was just stupid. I don't see them lasting long.

Well it was nice knowing you Ignition. How long before Disney cans them like they did Blackrock Studios.

I don't like disney much.....they should leave other video game companies alone

I still feel closing down Blackrock Studios was not a good judgement on their path. Eventhough the sales were lack-lusting but split/second set the path ahead for destructible driving games which Motorstorm 3 based themselves upon.
