Take Two to EA - You aren’t the only game in town


EA may have thought it was the big man on campus by throwing a whopping $2 billion dollars at Take Two, but it looks like Take Two has other suitors as well. Take Two although not naming names, has admitted that EA hasn’t been the only one asking them to the dance, others are reportedly trying to court Take Two as well. Shame on Take Two, trying to hold out for $4 billion apparently.

Take-Two has stated that following its rejection of EA’s USD 2 billion acquisition offer, the company has received interest from other companies interested in a merger.

However, no formal offers have been received and the publisher is not currently in any negotiations with any companies, according to a report by the Associated Press.

    EA has a similar mentality to the Ted Dibiasi, everybody has a price.

    What about Atari or Sega? They have money…I’m sorry, I couldn’t say that with a straight face.

    Activision.

    All this is a battle between EA and Activision to get everyone. I’m not too keen on the idea of them doing this. ;(
