Video Games in Danger

The videogame giant Electronic Arts (ERTS)is taking advantage of the Simpsons movie to make The Simpsons Game (which has an original plot different from the movie). The gaming industry should be capitalizing on this kind of mass media appeal, because with the beastly poll numbers of Hillary Clinton, they may not have much time left.

In the online gaming communities that pocket the face of the internet, Hillary is often known as “Ban it All” Clinton for her history of crusading against violence in video games.

If she chooses to take executive action against the industry, the big names would really feel a sting in their sales.

Microsoft (MSFT) is expecting millions of sales on their Halo 3 this fall.

Activision
(ATVI) makes the Quake series of games, and is also responsible for titles such as GUN and Doom 3.

Konami (KNM) makes the Castlevania, Contra, and Metal Gear series of games.
