Give Ubi a break. The worst M&M stuff came out under 3DO. Besides, have you taken a look at Wizardry, Ultima, and Bard's Tale lately? XD

I kindly disagree, I guess I'm in the minority here as I like all the M&M games, even those that were published by Ubi. I own all of the Ultima series, have played a majority of Wizardry games and played all of the Bard's Tale series.

I just wish that Ubi would do just one more M&M title. Dark Mesiah was fun, but only left fans wanting more.

I don't know if it's a recent thing or not, but I've read the same thing. The reasoning most likely being that the multiplayer component of a PC turn-based 40k game could cause a noticeable loss in revenue by stripping away a chunk of board game players who'd find it more convenient to play online. I'm sure many players wouldn't trade a computer game version for the fun of putting together their own armies, painting them, and playing with friends in person, but it can be a fairly expensive hobby, so certainly some people would ditch the board game in favor of a modern video game version of it. I assume they don't worry about that situation as much with something like a hand-held game system that doesn't support the kind of multiplayer capabilities that a PC game would.

That's always been my assumption, at least.
