TCW Podcast Episode 065 - The Rise and Fall of Infogrames Part 2 We go into the mass consolidation that sprung Infogrames into an international powerhouse.  It was due to these quick consolidations that led them to have a high value on the stock market.  When the tech bubble burst in the early 2000's the stock value plummeted, and Infrogrames was unable to service the massive debt consolidation has built up.  This eventually led to the outer of Bruno Bonnell from Infrogrames.  We go over the parade of leadership as the company collapses and sheds all the assets that they have.
