This paragraph was interesting.
" The major expenses in the gaming industry is on content and marketing, and Zapak aims to reduce the cost of publishing a game by buying out those studios and relocating them to India. “This will reduce the cost drastically from $30 mn to $10mn, which will give us the advantage to channelise our funds towards marketing and other activities,” the official said."

This story is completely false. We aren't for sale
No idea who made this up. We are in discussions with various companies in India about bringing our games to this growing market but that's it. We aren't for sale.

Ah, fair do's. Looks like I was bamboozled.
My bad.

Of course it's a fake. Relocating games companies to India? 'Buying out' SOE? Come on. 
When do companies use the term 'buying out'?

Doesn't 'buying out' refer to shareholders rather than companies?
Imagine contacting a CSR in India who has been on a English course (but not really) and explaining to them an issue your having with the game >_<
It would be like contacting my ISP... or my Satalite TV provider, and it is terrible.
"My router is plugged in and the lights say everything is ok and I am getting a connection, but when I open an aplication that uses the internet it says that there is no internet connection"
