This week on Tech’s Last Call, we really get into the details of things. Facebook buying Whatsapp in the second largest ever tech acquisition? We consider it from every angle. Candy Crush Saga maker King Games going public? We unambiguously think that they will go the way of Zynga. Ken Levine closing Irrational Games? We think you should expect Bioshock: Infinite 2 in 2015. The debate over what are the largest cities in America? We give it ten minutes on our tech podcast. Twitch Plays Pokemon? We’ve been watching it for days and yelling, “start” a lot. We are really detail oriented.
