o Take-Two Acquires Sega's Visual
Concepts, Kush Games for $24 Million
New York -- Video game publisher Take-Two Interactive, developer
of the "Grand Theft Auto" franchise, announced on Tuesday that it
has acquired two game studios owned by Japan's Sega -- Visual
Concepts Entertainment and Kush Games -- for $24 million in cash.
Visual Concepts develops Sega's "2K" series of sports video games,
including its Major League Baseball titles; yesterday, Take-Two
announced an exclusive deal with MLB to publish official baseball
video games. Under the deal, Sega will publish 2K and other Take-Two
titles in Japan and other Asian markets. "These studios and their
unrivaled talent represent a significant addition to Take-Two's
internal development capabilities, which are now approaching 1,000
people worldwide," said company president Paul Eibeler. New
York-based Take-Two also formed a new publishing label, 2K Games,
which will incorporate Visual Concepts and Kush, in addition to
Take-Two's Indie Built, Venom Games, PopTop Software and Frog City
Software studios. The 2K Games label will publish the 2K sports
titles as well as titles due for release on Take-Two's Global Star
label.

o Bush's Top
Lawyer, Christian Coalition Side with RIAA in File-Sharing Appeal
Washington -- A number of conservative groups, including the
Christian Coalition, joined the Bush administration's Solicitor
General and the Business Software Alliance in filing "friend of the
court" briefs in support of the movie and music industries' appeal
of a file-sharing case to the U.S. Supreme Court. The RIAA and MPAA
have appealed a landmark ruling, which said providers of
file-sharing software cannot be held liable for copyright
infringement committed by end-users, to the Supreme Court. While the
U.S. Solicitor General admitted that peer-to-peer networks can be
used for legitimate purposes, his brief argued that the file-sharing
firms being sued in MGM v. Grokster "have built their particular P2P
networks around the 'draw' of massive copyright infringement."
Conservative groups including the Christian Coalition, Concerned
Women for America and Morality in Media -- which are usually railing
against indecency in movies and music -- sided with the RIAA and
MPAA in their brief, deriding the "untraceable peer-to-peer networks
that facilitate crimes against children." A group of technology
firms and public interest groups yesterday filed their own brief
with the Supreme Court, criticizing the use of file-sharing for
copyright infringement while maintaining that outlawing all such
technology would stifle innovation. The Supreme Court will hear oral
arguments in MGM v. Grokster on March 29, with a decision expected
by the end of July.

o Google, Yahoo
Launch Free Video Search Services
Mountain View, Calif. -- Search engine giant Google on Tuesday
launched a new service that allows users to search the content of TV
programs. The Google Video beta lets users search across the closed
captioning content of TV programs from providers including PBS, the
NBA, Fox News and C-SPAN. Mounatin View, Calif.-based Google, which
began indexing content for the service in December, said features
will include a preview page, list of upcoming episodes, search
within the show, and the ability to find when a program will air
locally according to zip code. For the time being, the free service
will not include Google AdWords advertising or playback options. On
the same day, rival Yahoo launched a similar service that allows
users to search video from providers including Bloomberg TV, BSkyB
and the BBC.

o Electronic
Arts Completes Tender Offer for Swedish Developer DICE
Redwood City, Calif. -- Video game publisher Electronic Arts
announced on Tuesday that it has tendered its final offer to
shareholders in its bid to acquire Swedish game developer Digital
Illusions CE (DICE), creator of the "Battlefield" franchise. EA
already holds about 20% of DICE, but an earlier offer to acquire the
remaining shares of the company was rejected by DICE shareholders.
The company said that 32% of DICE shareholders now accept its offer,
and with another 8.9% of shares it has acquired in the market, it
now holds a 59.8% controlling interest in DICE. EA further declared
the conditions for its offer have been met, and expects to close the
transaction by Jan. 27. Separately, Redwood City, Calif.-based EA on
Tuesday shipped its "Oddworld Stranger's Wrath" for Xbox to
retailers. The title is the latest in the series developed by San
Luis Obispo, Calif.-based Oddworld Inhabitants. EA also said that it
will bundle the Super Nintendo title "Super Punch-Out" on its
upcoming "Fight Night Round 2" title for Nintendo GameCube.

o Missouri
Governor Bans Video Games for Prison Inmates
Jefferson City, Mo. -- Missouri governor Matt Blunt has announced
a ban on video games within the state's prisons, labeling them "a
luxury that inmates should not be allowed to enjoy," the Associated
Press reported. The video game ban, which is also in effect in 47
other states, followed a Dec. 2004 story in The Kansas City Star
that revealed inmates were playing violent titles like "Hitman:
Contracts." The governor had previously removed 35 violent titles
from prisons, but this week expanded the ban to all video games.
"Our penitentiaries are punitive institutions where those who have
committed crimes against society are sent to pay for their actions.
They are not meant to be arcades," said Blunt, in a statement.

o French Mobile
Game Publisher In-Fusio Acquires Developer Thumbworks
Los Angeles -- French mobile game publisher In-Fusio announced on

transaction were not disclosed. In-Fusio said Thumbworks president
Craig Holland will become head of In-Fusio's U.S. operations.
Thumbworks has created branded games for clients including Jeep,
Honda, Wilson and Paramount Pictures, in addition to a streaming
animation service called CellToons for Sprint. "The merger is a
definitive step for expanding In-Fusio's publishing expertise and
technological capabilities, positioning the company as a leading
mobile entertainment entity in North America," said In-Fusio co-CEO
and president Gilles Raymond.

o Venture
Capital Reverses Three-Year Trend; Rises in 2004
Arlington, Va. -- Venture capitalists reversed a three-year downward
trend by investing $20.9 billion into nearly 2,900 deals last year,
according to a new report from PricewaterhouseCoopers, Thomson
Venture Economics and the National Venture Capital Association. The
annual investment level had fallen each year beginning in 2001,
culminating in a six-year low of $18.9 billion in 2003. According to
the report, the increase in 2004 was due largely to a sharp increase
in late-stage investments, from $4.9 billion to $7.2 billion. "The
strengthening IPO and acquisitions markets clearly helped fuel late
stage financings in 2004," said Mark Heesen, president of the
National Venture Capital Association. "Now, as venture capitalists
are beginning to invest their new funds, we may well see a shift in
focus back to early stage companies in the coming year."
