I dont think any of you guys have heard of these games called World of Warcraft or Guitar Hero, but today the companies who produce these games have become one company known as Activision Blizzard.

What do you think this means for the gaming market?

Well, reading about it, it's sort of new, because July 10th was the date they sealed the deal and officially became ActivisionBlizzard..

No Jawz. You are a singular everything outside of you is all, an indeterminate mass of seemingly limitless potential.

Whereas you are a definite thing, a person, we all is an idea, and you will never be part of it so long as we all discuss you.
