ELECTRONIC ARTS To Be Bought By South Korean Company? Leviathan Swallows Another.

This is some crazy sauce. I can’t imagine a company being able to unhinge their jaw to such a degree that they could swallow Electronic Arts, but apparently it can be done. South Korean company  Nexon is readying its gullet, poised to consume the  leviathan.

Kotaku:

Interesting. According to a report onBloomberg, originating from the South Korean media, MMO publisher Nexon is interested in a takeover of Electronic Arts.

While details were thin, the Bloomberg report did mention EA’s shares jumped 6% on the news.

Nexon is the publisher of games like  Maple Story.

Neither Nexon nor EA  is willing to comment  on what both companies call “rumor and speculation”.

…Has anyone actually heard of Nexon? I haven’t.
