:lol: Yves Guillemot CEO Ubisoft says...
"We have sold more than 5 million units of games in the Petz line and casual games on DS and Wii. So the casual series exists already, but we plan to do a lot more,"
(quote from GamesIndustry.biz)

The Petz kids game from Ubisoft sells about 15 times more copies than SH and doubtless is a lot less complex to program and retails at inflated console prices!

Looking at that, it's amazing Ubisoft even contemplate doing a subsim at all!

Maybe this explains part of it...

"Yves is a sailing and horse-riding enthusiast." source Mobygames

Although I don't think that the next part of his bio is accurate based on recent events!!!

"He is married with three children, who are the harshest judges of Ubi Soft games."

He is married with three children

Isn't it ilegal to marry more than one person, and also ilegal to marry under 18?

I'm glad he's a sailing enthusiast. Maybe a modder can map his boat into the game and you guys can try and sink it with a faulty TDC.

"sailing enthusiast."

If someone was to mod his boat so he can use it instead of a sub he might ensure UBI put a lot more money into the series.

A sailing boat with bow and stern torpedo tubes plus a bow and stern AA guns might be pretty fun actually. :arrgh!:
