Hi Alex!

I always thought your hunter-gatherer theory had some merit to it!...lol :)

Well, some interesting news....

1) Frank Evers, former vice prez of production at Activision is now the new vice prez for production and product development of Disney Interactive. If Evers left ATVI on good terms, this could be a great alliance for ATVI to have....it would further advance ATVI's current agreement.

2) ATVI will make an Asteroids remake for the color GameBoy. Fits this format perfectly.

3) Dark Reign 2 and Battlezone 2 are being developed by ex-ATVI-ers Pandemic Studios...previews at ogr.com

4) Cabela's BGII is at #2...I thought it had knocked DHII off the charts, but it turns out that DHII is only selling for an ASP of $9!....so it doesn't make the PC Data cutoff...according to mmWire.

5) ATVI sold 2.2 million units last year to take a 3.9% share of the overall game market....up from 3.4% a year ago..Tops were Havas, ERTS, GTIS, Hasbro the Learning Co, and ATVI rounding off the top 6.

Have a great weekend!

Tom
