I like your ideas RR.

The only stipulation I would make before entering into the bargain, is that I control the game and can continue to play it after Ubi (or whoever) decides to move on to simulating cheap gangsters shooting and knifing each other, or simulating alligator wrestling, or whatever. Of course, the longer they stick with it, the better the end product (we hope). However, sooner or later, the people involved will want to move on. We certainly have learned that by now. If you have to pay and pay, just to play what is already there, I don't see much advantage to it.

Is it true that the devs did not document their code? I was under the impression that this was SOP. Why would anyone even hire professionals to produce code that wasn't documented? It seems like it's value would be very dubious.
