    Soooo close. Years ago, John Doerr joked on stage with me that “God intended” Zynga to be above $10 per share. The sale price works out to $9.86 per share. https://techcrunch.com/...

    Never thought I'd see the publisher of Grand Theft Auto buy the publisher of Farmville. https://twitter.com/...

    Take-Two buying Zynga. Solves the biggest problem for each. Didn't have confidence in Zynga ability to move away from casual or ever develop own IP. Take-Two has needed a bigger mobile strategy for forever. $TTWO $ZNGA
