"My belief is Rockstar would be perfectly happy if EA never put a bid in at all. White knight commentary is total bullsh*t, and disrespectful to both the developers at TTWO and the new management team that has already achieved success,"

"I would think with how successful the GTA games have been the issue hasn't been getting them to a wider audience. The issue is really more about shareholder value and whether EA is a white knight for Take-Two shareholders by offering to pay them the maximum value they feel they can get,"

" 'White Knight' usually signifies rescue from a hostile suitor (the connotation is to a damsel in distress). I think Riccitiello's use of the term was incorrect, and perhaps a misplaced attempt to sound clever. They are in no sense a White Knight."
