the company activi$ion is already a big pile o crap and then you want to add micro$oft... wow I can believe its goin to be far worst than that haha

already with activi$ion the server is down what more with M$, blue screen of DIABLO hahahaha

 

[whimseh]

Not Microsoft.......... oh god NOT Microsoft................................

 

[kcorp2003]

the moment they sell it to microsoft. call of duty becomes an exclusive for xbox. its already like that too. I also heard that Vivendi owns some of the game reviewers companies websites.

I wonder what would happen if they merge with their nemesis EA. That will be Armageddon.

O god, Time Warner? Of all the companies, they manage to find THEM?!?!?!

At least M$ does games, but Time Warner???? They are the worst company I have ever had the curse of dealing with!

M$ on this one, choose the better of the two.

How about Valve?

Doing so will void any 3rd in a series of games that hasn't been released. Then again, it would be funny to see Blizzard go under Valve which recently had an argument over issues about ownership of DOTA.

i don't even.

At least release the Legacy of the Void and then sell Blizzard to whoever u want - even to the devil himself..

I'll give them 1 quarter for it.

 

[bobbyp86]

Can you say Xbox exclusive? ;(

 

[Guest]

Valve doesn't have the money, since Activision Blizzard is a larger company.

Sad really...

Founded back in 1853, and headquartered in Paris, Vivendi's heart is in music publishing and TV broadcasting.

Seriously... I didn't know they had such devices in 1853. Phonograph didn't come out until 1877 according to wiki. What did they have before then?

If TimeWarner gets Activision-Blizzard, games will become ad supported.....

Wow so much hate towards Microsoft.

I don't really hate them or like them but MS has realy do take care of their games compared to Activison.

Not that I liked them, but it would be a major blow to PC gaming. Call of Duty, Starcraft, Warcraft and Diablo exclusive to the Xbox... because we all know it would be the case.
