Activision to Buy King Digital for $5.9B
This is the exact same as Zynga buying OMGPOP just for Draw Something, and we know how turned out. Except with 10x bigger numbers.<p>King, in fairness, has multiple games in the App Store at the top of the Top Grossing charts in addition to Candy Crush Saga. No idea what Activision gets out of this. (games like Call of Duty have been sneaking ad-hoc microtransactions similar to F2P games)
