Walt Mossberg – For iPad and Mobile Devices, a “Port” out of the Norm
Blame the launch of Take-Two’s Grand Theft Auto IV for long lines at video game hawkers today. It’s expected to bring in some $400 million this week alone. The company has held Electronic Arts, its hostile suitor, at arm’s length since February, awaiting the game’ s debut. That now looks smart. Big anticipated revenues from the virtual testosterone-fueled rampage should give it an edge in negotiations.
This is a section of the AllThingsD Web site featuring posts that have been curated from around the Web: pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Five posts are included here each weekday, but only the headline and the first two sentences. We link to the original site for the rest. The section is explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that content comes “from other Web sites.”
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions. Voices is edited by Beth Callaghan.
