    Microsoft to buy activision

    Can someone tell gaming companies to stop selling out ? Lol. So far anything bought by microsoft has been ruined - first skype, then linked in, then doom, and they started with ruining windows after version XP.

        I heard this on NPR this morning.

        Activision is going through a difficult period right now. They just rolled out a new version of Call Of Duty called Vanguard and it was completely fucked up, and it fucked up all other versions of the game. It was so bad that at a certain point you couldn't play any of the COD line of games; Some of their staff walked out in protest.

          Microsoft's acquisitions reminds me of Yahoo's acquisitions back during the Dot Com bust days.... Broadcast.com (which made Mark Cuban's career) = bust Geocities = bust Tumblr = wasted opportunity The list is endless.

          If it weren't for Yahoo's stake in Alibaba, Yahoo would be worth shit

                Way before that Microsoft fucked up stock photography. They bought the stock photography companies then pulled the money out of it.

                  They said it will take through the end of 2023 to complete the buyout / merger / takeover.

                  Spend you some brain.
