Vivendi owns among other companies...BLIZZARD. Of course I have serious doubts that Apple would buy Blizzard, but remember how they were f**ked last time a major game company that supported the Mac platform was sold? Microsoft bought Bungie a few years back and screwed a loyal mac base...
Well, Discuss?.

Not only that, but Bungie SOLD all of its other franchises/games besides Halo before accepting the MS buyout. Yes, the Xbox has Halo (which is excellent) but what has Bungie done for them lately?
As for this topic, I'm going to move it to Software as we're talking about a 'rumor' of Apple buying a software company.
