Holy shit the world is coming to an end. This would be terrible for gaming in the US.

I hope this is a lie. EA is shit now but Nexon is even worse.

[Baneblade]

Now that is poetic justice if I may say so myself.

[Hamma]

Never even heard of Nexon

[Baneblade]

Heard of Combat Arms?

[Zulthus]

I would have assumed at least everyone has tried Combat Arms at one point or another.




Ahh, you beat me to it.

[Saintlycow]

maybe are allowed to do what they want...

[Geist]

Still a rumor guys, although if true, they deserve it.

[Hamma]

Heard of Combat Arms?

Nope.

[Coreldan]

have you heard of Maplestory?

I havnt personally played Combat Arms, the only Nexon game ive played is Vindictus.

That said, how on earth could they buy EA? I know Nexon aint exactly small either, but EA should be gigantic in comparison?

[Hamma]

None of the above. :lol:

[Coreldan]

Sir, you've been living in a barrel the last 10 years. :D

[Graywolves]

I've played Combat Arms and Maple Story but I can't understand how they would be able to buy EA.


Unless EA has actually lost lots of money and gamers aren't the horrible consumers I think they are.

Nexon was ranked 15th (right ahead of NCSoft) in Aug 2010. That could have changed a lot since then. EA was third.

[Bittermen]

WoW this is an interesting turn of events.

Shares jumped 6%

[Vash02]

They dont need to buy the entire value of the company, only 51% of it.

[Gonefshn]

If anyone has not seen this yet you might find it interesting.

I think someone just wanted to do some insider trading.

[p0intman]

Well thats good, if thats the case. However, my FUCK NEXON comment stands.
