id software, Epic, EA, Dice, Microsoft, Red Storm, Valve, THQ, Activision, Sierra, etc., then I'd rid them of the corporate BS level, and combine all the raw talent together to make the most awesome game in the universe and distribute it for free.

i dont think you'd be able to maintain all of those companies and their workers if you didnt charge for the game. =\

Just buy a quantum computer that ill make with my 3 quadrillion, and hack all of those companies and take all their ideas/developments.

I'd just invest it and give them salaries off of the interest.

Edit: Invest it in other companies before I bought these out, as their stocks would likely go up. ;)

I would purchase a small army to kill every single one of the people sueing. These morons should understand that you choose to live in an area where this could happen. Choice is yours. It's not the Military or federal governments job to protect your property from mother nature. Your own common sense could do that for you. I would like to see everyone who has ever lost a house because of a tornado sue the government for not blocking it or not giving them enough notice to move their house.

I'd start with this...
http://neversealand.downtothesea.org/2007/11/30/vatu-vara-for-sale/

This is my dream land!!!

Then I would finance the research and cultivation of super-weed for personal consumption.

...and buy lots of big expensive toys (submarines, ships, my own interwebs, etc...)

I would invest and stash enough to set multiple generations of my family up for life then give the rest to organization(s) that help and treat serious and terminally ill children.

Quote from: the article
"That's the mother of all high numbers," said Loren Scott, a Baton Rouge-based economist.

3,014,170,389,176,411 would blow his mind, oy.

None of you have even made a dent in 3 quadrillion so far.

 3,000,000,000,000,000 = 10 million, 100 million times

You could buy every company all of you have listed here, produce everything for free, pay extremely high salaries, and stay in business for years and years (probably more than 20).

If each company cost 1 billion dollars you could buy 1 million of them.

Realize the size of the load man...big money!!!

I'd build a large factory, hire a load of oompa loompas, build Lekky's Oompa Loompa Sexual Exploration Factory, hide 10 purple tickets in the worlds 10 fattest womens kitty, and offer a free tour of the Factory whoever managed to grab a ticket with their teeth, whilst maintaining wood.
