I was looking for Id in the stock market, but it doesn't seem they have a stock symbol. Does anybody own them? I figure the company that owns Id should have a stock symbol.

id is a private company, thus there's no stock symbol.

Well you COULD invest in ID, but the board of directors would have to approve, so you'd have to give the Carmack's a call![]()
It's amazing how small and focused id is; 23 team members do everything for the whole company, and only 3 guys don't directly work on the games, the CEO, the Business Director, and the secretary/mom.Originally posted by: Beau

Most of the big wigs at ID have more money than God, so I doubt that they would go public. They probably wouldn't want to lose full control of their company just to make a few more bucks off of the stock options.

g4tv said something about them maybe going public soon.

You guys must be joking if you don't think that you can invest in private companies. Sure, you can't buy stock on the market, per se. But every company needs investors, private or not.
