Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA): Nvidia has partnered with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to combine its latest graphics card release with the debut of the newest Batman game, Batman: Arkham Origins. Nvidia will include game codes to download the Batman game with purchase of its GeForce Experience, hoping to drive sales of the graphics powerhouse with the bonus. The deal also works out well for Warner Bros., as Nvidia has historically only partnered with games whose graphics are of the highest quality.
