| I'm not complaining at all about the bid since I bought ten 100-share contracts to buy TTWO stock last summer when it was $14/share that expire in January of 2009. I will be really happy the higher it gets pushed this year.
GTA is the most lasting video game franchise of all time. If EA ends up screwing that up because they don't feel like providing adequate compensation to the Rockstar devs or because their greed causes them to make it "accessible" to the teen market then they are complete idiots. The fans of GTA are typically diehard and, as the teens whose parents wouldn't let them get GTA3 and GTA4 get older, the potential market for next gen GTA games will grow exponentially.
Even though I lost my job last year, I fully intend to shell out the $500 for a PS3 and GTA4 the day it hits stores. San Andreas cemented the position of the GTA franchise in history and there are millions of us fans that will always want more and more of it.
Now all I need is for someone to make a new version of Severence (Blade of Darkness) and I will be a happy camper :)
Here's to hoping TTWO stock hits $40, regardless of what company buys them out. |
