Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ: TTWO) is recently up $7.64 to $25.

Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) made an offer of $26 a share for TTWO, a publisher of Grand Theft Auto videogames.

Cowen says: "Because of the potential accretion of the deal to ERTS, we believe there is a good chance that the deal could get done at a higher price than the current offer."

TTWO overall option implied volatility of 70 is near its 26-week average of 68 according to Track Data, suggesting non-directional price movement.
