EA looking for smaller acquisitions after Take-Two failure

ealogo22

EA CFO Eric Brown has said EA is now in the market for smaller buys, speaking at the Pacific Crest Technology Leadership Forum in Vail, Colorado, this week.

Talking of EA's failed attempt to buy Take-Two this year, Brown said, "That's a deal whose timeframe has come and long gone. We're just not interested in a large-scale, traditional packaged-good publishing deal."

Brown also said EA is "underweighted" in Asia relative to its global sales.
