Pre-orders for both the Playstation 4 and the Xbox One are sold out on Gamestop, and in this video, Motley Fool consumer goods analyst Blake Bos asks the question, "Does that mean it's time for investors to take a look at game developer stocks?" He compares the three big game developers listed on the U.S. exchanges -- Take-Two Interactive (TTWO +0.23%), Electronic Arts (EA +0.11%), and Activision Blizzard (ATVI +0.00%) -- and gives investors his favorite pick of the bunch.
