Major video game publisher Activision Blizzard's CEO Robert Kotick was one of the highest paid executives of 2012.
The CEO made $65 million in compensation, thanks to a major stock award.
Kotick's base salary jumped to $2 million, and he received a $56 million stock award. Additionally compensation was performance based.
The company's revenues and net income only saw low single digit growth for 2012, much slower than 2011 when the exec made a much smaller salary and bonus.
Kotick has been a director and CEO of the company since 1991.
