As a former EA/BioWare employee I watch the value of EA stock like a hawk. I'm sitting on a small bundle of it and when I was first hired it was worth ~$60 a share. These days it's lucky to get within groping distance of $20 (much to the shagrin of many an EA employee).
Seeing as how I spend most of my day staring at a computer screen I've added a little stock ticker to the right hand side and I (morbidly) track the value of all the publicly traded game dev studios. Now the share price alone isn't a perfect indicator of the stocks value, that being said our company (Square Enix) is the highest valued stock at the moment of the group. I'd honestly expected it to be Activision/Blizzard - but I'm guessing maybe their stock is too prolific?
Poor THQ is in danger of being de-listed from the stock market - their shares are approaching .50 cents a stock - with IP's like Saints Row, Warhammer and WWE I'm sure it's only a matter of time before they're picked off and absorbed into another studio.
