      I think several of the other replies to this thread have done that for
      me, but as a small datapoint, a quick google turned up the following
      article:
      http://www.ocregister.com/news/blizzard-game-games-1796404-warcraft-company
      which lists employment figures and growth for Blizzard as of last year.
      That's a lot of manpower, and how many other companies can afford to
      compete with that?
