I was looking at upcoming Wii releases on GameFAQs when I noticed this:
03/04/09: Grey's Anatomy
Yes, there is going to be a fucking video game based on the hit TV that all the girls love. The game is published by Ubisoft, and so I submit to you that Ubisoft is Hitler. At the very least, the those soulless French bastards are the Vicchy government. Since o video game does not a Hitler make, let's take a look at some of the other Nazi-friendly titles that Ubisoft has released over the last two years:
2009 (thus far:)Petz: My Monkey Family (DS)
Petz: My Kitten Family (DS)
Petz: My Baby Panda (DS)
Imagine: Cheerleader (DS)
Jojo's Fashion Show (DS)
Petz Horseshoe Ranch (DS)
Word Academy (DS)
2008:
My Fun Facts Coach (DS)
My Fitness Coach (DS)
Wordfish (DS)
Happy Cooking (DS)
Who Wants to Be A Millionaire 2nd Edition (Wii, DS)
Babysitting Party (Wii)
Petz: My Puppy Family (DS)
Planet Rescue: Endangered Island (DS)
TV Show King Party (Wii)
How To Pass Your Driving Test (DS)
Real Soccer 2009 (DS)
Imagine: Gymnast (DS)
Petz Monkeyz House (DS)
Petz Catz Clan (DS)
Imagine: Ballet Star (DS)
Imagine: Movie Star (DS)
Petz Crazy Monkeyz (Wii)
Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party (Wii, DS)
Petz Rescue Endangered Paradise (DS)
CSI: NY (PC)
Petz Sports: Dog Playground (Wii, PC)
Planet Rescue: Ocean Patrol (DS)
My Stop Smoking Coach: Allen Carr's EasyWay (DS)
Petz: Horse Club (Wii, PC)
Imagine: Party Babyz (Wii)
Imagine: Dream Wedding (DS)
Imagine: Champion Rider (Wii)
Planet Rescue: Animal Emergency (DS)
Imagine: Interior Designer (DS)
Imagine: Wedding Designer (DS)
Guitar Rock Tour (DS)
Family Fest Presents Movie Games (Wii)
Petz Rescue Wildlife Vet (Wii, DS)
Petz Rescue Ocean Patrol (DS)
Cesar Millan's Dog Whisperer (DS, PC)
The Price Is Right (Wii, DS)
Hell's Kitchen (Wii, DS)
Fuck it, I give up. The really sad part is that I was only able to list roughly 20% of the awful titles that Ubisoft published in 2008 before I gave up. TWENTY FUCKING PERCENT.
So yeah, Ubisoft = Hitler.

I also can't stand how Ubisoft pumps out sequel after sequel on an annual basis. One thing I enjoyed about the Metal Gear Solid games was the anticipation of the next one. Ubisoft goes the total opposite direction with this and makes a game and then a year later makes another. In my opinion it totally takes away from the anticipation of the sequel if they churn them out at that rate.
It is kind of funny though when they have all of their studios doing sequels and they all get released it then takes a long ass time for the next one to be released. For example Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway. They popped out the first two games in the same fucking year and it then took like three years before we saw another one.
Same goes for Splinter Cell. They put out the first one in 2002. Pandora Tomorrow in 2004, Chaos Theory in 2005 and then Double Agent in 2006. And now close to three years later Splinter Cell Conviction has yet to be released.
They also did it with Prince of Persia. We got Sands of Time in 2003, Warrior Within in 2004 and then Two Thrones in 2005. Granted it was a trilogy but it then took them like three years to put another one out.
It's like they get all their studios working on the games at the same time and then when they are all released they have nothing started on the next game. The rate in which they release sequels almost makes me not want to play them since I just finished the previous game. I like when sequels are spaced out, like the Star Wars movies where you'd get one every few years. It would give me something to look forward to instead of them trying to shove it down my throat.

I have always considered them to be a B class game making company.
They have a few great titles, but in general, they fail to bring the best. They are everything that is wrong with the industry.
Are they Hitler? No.
They are more like the pineapple that the devil shoves up Hitler's ass in Little Nicky. So... they are closely tied to Hitler, but not Hitler himself.

I saw that too when I went on GameFAQs, very lulzy. It shows how commercialized gaming has become.

I applaud Ubisoft for bringing the price is right to consoles. I've been waiting for something like this since I was a kid.

I would have applauded them for TPIR if they had made it when Bob Barker was still running the show. From what I understand, it doesn't feature a host at all.

I have to defend Ubi, for at least the Tom Clancy games:
The Rainbow Six series
&
Ghost Recon series
Also, for it's flightsims. One of the very few companies who still makes them. And, I mean REAL flight sims, not those gay action ones (such as the Ace Combat series), which are just 21st century versions of Afterburner.
IL-2 Sturmovik series
(IL-2, Forgotten Battles, Pacific Fighters, 1946)
Lock On: Modern Air Combat

I like the Rainbow Six games but they just crank out sequel after sequel and I hate that because to me it feels like they are trying to cram those sequels down my throat.

I thought it was going to be Rainbow Six Reno..."It's like Vegas just not as cool." Or maybe Rainbow Six Atlantic City! Or maybe just maybe Rainbow Six Cripple Creek/Central City/Blackhawk!
You wouldn't know the last one but those are a few small gambling town in Colorado. I went to one in Central City once and it was lame. Old people smoking cigarettes while connected to oxygen gambling their social security money. Plus my fingertips got all black from the damn slot machine coins. Plus a buffet that was overpriced and was just horrible.
