From what I little I do know about Sir Branson, I can tell that he is the most over-ambitious dude on the planet. (Not that there is anything wrong with that) Just doesn't seem like the right time, or place, to dump millions and millions of his "hard earned" skrilla. I agree with Mr. Morris.

It's interesting that Branson, who initially made a splash in the business of content, pointed out that the best opportunities in gaming today have nothing to do with actually making games. Not sure I think this venture's bound for massive success, but it does underscore the point that the market may be grossly over-saturated on all fronts. So much for game publishing.
