Tomb Raider: Underworld - Image 1The rumor mill is abuzz over talks of someone making a grab for Eidos Interactive's parent company, SCi Entertainment. With a devastating drop of 92 percent from their share price, a buyout for SCi is certainly not unbelievable at this stage.

According to the sources of Daily Mail, Ubisoft and Electronic Arts have both approached the struggling company and are currently undergoing "early-stage" talks over a possible buyout. However, both buyers are also reportedly holding off to see how Tomb Raider: Underworld (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, DS) will perform in the market.

Ubisoft would probably be better for developing Tomb Raider as they have their experiences with Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia.
