Take-Two Interactive finally taken over - Image 1Remember Take-Two Interactive's shareholders plan to take over the reins of the struggling video game publisher? Well, they finally did control the boardroom - last night. According to reports, the take over happened during Take-Two's annual meeting at the Hotel Gansevoort, and the action was quite swift and decisive.

The investors who are not so keen on former CEO Paul Eibeler's way of managing and handling the company installed Benjamin Feder as the acting chief executive officer. Strauss Zelnick, likewise, was installed chairman. These shareholders actually control almost 50% of Take-Two's stock and that is why they were able to pull this stunt.

Anyway, it seems that the latest development was favored by the so-called big Benjamin players as the publisher's regular NASDAQ trading immediately rose by US$ 0.24 ending at US$ 21.10. More remarkably, Take-Two's shares also rose from US$ 1.36 to US$ 22.46 during last night's extended trading.

The new chairman, Zelnick, said that one of the things that needs to be done first is to look for a permanent CEO, and CFO Karl Winters will keep his post for now. And then he added, "The first goal is to get to know the company and its employees, to reassure people and create value for shareholders."

Strauss Zelnick used to head Bertelsmann AG's BMG music company and video game developer Crystal Dynamics Inc. He currently  takes charge of New York-based investment firm Zelnick Media. Other newly installed directors include Michael Dornemann, Jon Moses, and Michael Sheresky.

Lastly, the reports added that Eibeler and his companions tried to look for a last-minute buyer in favor of them but to no avail.

Eidos - Image 1British publisher Eidos has announced their plans to open shop, specifically a new development studio, in Montreal. This new Eidos studio will be working on unnamed and undisclosed next-gen games. The coveted role of general manager will be given to Stéphane D'Astous. The new GM's first task is to recruit a new team for the Montreal studio.

This is all part of Eidos' expansion strategy. After opening new studios in Sweden and Hungary in the past 12 months, it seems that the expansion is going as planned. The company also internal studios Crystal Dynamics, IO Interactive, Pivotal Games and Beautiful Game. According to Bill Ennis, commercial director of Eidos:

This is a really exciting time for Eidos. We are actively looking for opportunities to further our drive to become a major force in global videogames publishing. Montreal is the ideal location to open a new studio because of its thriving game development community and favourable economics.

The Quebec Government has been known to have a really supportive program for games companies. Earlier, Ubisoft was the recipient of a multi-million dollar grant to fund the expansion of its Montreal office. According to Raymond Bachand, Quebec's minister of economic development, innovation and exports:

Our talented workers, competitive operating costs and the support of our government have enabled Quebec to become the sector leader in Canada and attract industry's major players, like Eidos.
