Description
By acquiring Activision Blizzard, the largest game publisher in North America, Microsoft, is becoming a "powerhouse of content and distribution," explains Joost van Dreunen, an investor and expert in the video game industry. "One of the topics that remains after this acquisition is of course, what happens to the rest of the market?" says van Dreunen from his office in Brooklyn, New York. "What happens to the rest of the market? What happens to a publisher like EA? what happens to Ubisoft? Will Amazon swoop in? Will Netflix acquire one of them and at what price?" IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
