Electronic Arts Up For Sale? · Slashdot Mirror

Posted by Soulskill on Saturday August 18, 2012 @05:50AM from the take-a-check? dept.

John Wagger writes "One of the world's largest gaming publishers and developers Electronic Arts has quietly put itself up for sale. While there have already been talks with private equity companies, the talks have not resulted in anything concrete. One of the sources is saying that EA would do the deal for $20 per share (currently at $14.02). Over the past year, EA's stock price has fallen 37 percent. Like other major game publishers, EA has been struggling against growing trend of social and mobile gaming."

CS: GO, utter shit (even worse than CS:S, if that's even possible). HL3: myth. DOTA? Shit. Steam? Complete forfeit of all consumer rights to "buy" games. I don't think GabeN is the messiah you believe he is.
