However it adds up, Zynga is clearly a huge player in modern video games. How do they compare to those other giants in video games?
Here is the market cap for the biggest players. Market cap may not be the perfect way to measure how much a company is worth (it’s the number of shares multiplied by the share price), it does help put things in perspective.
