Report Benchmark company on possible takover TTWO by ATVI

[blubber]

Mike Hickey of The Benchmark Company wrote his thoughts on a possible deal.

* EA attempted takeover TTWO in 2008 for $ 26 per share, failed because shareholders and Rockstar didn’t agree. Relationship between TTWO and Activision is much better.
* Current console cycle has great strength + Activision is now independent from Vivendi and ATVI has a lot of cash.
* By acquiring TTWO, ATVI would have 3 strongest development studios in the world (Rockstar, Bungie, Blizzard).
* Takeover would help smoothen annual release calendar + results
* World of Warcraft and Call of Duty becoming less popular
Conclusion : Acquiring GTA, Red Dead, Borderlands, NBA 2K, Bioshock etc would seem like a very smart move for ATVI

Et hop ça se diffuse sur le web

Call of Duty publisher Activision could be making an offer to acquire GTA publisher Take-Two, according to a recent report.
[…]
Hickey described this as “an emerging romance” between the two mega publishers.
[…]
Though he did argue that annualizing Take-Two franchises could prove difficult.
