Ubisoft dude says online gaming sites rule, we agree completely photo

Finally, an executive that knows what the hell they are talking about! All praise due Ubisoft UK managing director Rob Cooper, for he has prophecized that online gaming sites are the future. Straight from a genius' mouth to your eyes:

Speaking in the latest edition of the Games Central podcast, Cooper said that "a lot, lot more" of Ubisoft's money is now being spent online.

"Only last week we were looking at ways and means we should further our spend in sites generally, because it is so active. You see such a big result on a website," he stated.

"[Gamers] like to read it when they want to read it, rather than actually sit for a certain time or read when a magazine comes out," he observed. "Certainly, if I'm looking on the Internet, I've tended to look at things because it's instant. Rather than wait for something to read it, I can read it there and then, which to me is much more important." 

We are just going to go ahead and assume this brilliant man has his keen eyes already focused on Destructoid. We're ready to sell out when you are Rob. All praise due Ubisoft.

"All praise due Ubisoft."

...Except for Raving rabbids, which was lame.

I love the pic with this story.

Oh, and I think the word you want might have been "prophesied".

Not sure but I think you made up "prophesized".

Silly americans and your Z's...

Will the explosions and titties be there at the same time? Because I'm not sure I like the sound of that...

Raving rabbids was fun...

I like elipses...

Lots of people spell "prophesied" with a z. Easy mistake, I do it too. It still doesn't mean it's right, but at least he has plenty of company. Now, if he were using the word "prophesizing", the z would be correct. Also, cockz.

Raving Rabbids was good, and Red Steel had potential but had been ruined by controls. And they went downhill from there.

If you want to sell out to them, wait just a little longer.
