Update:Details on the Blizzard-Activision merger
2007-12-03 01:59:00
Update and Clarifications : It seems a lot of confusion about what this merger means comes from the name. The actual merger is between Activision and Vivendi Games, the name Blizzard is simply being used in the new branding. The merger won’t affect our development, just as having a parent company hasn’t affected our development when we were owned by Davidson & Associates before we even shipped our first Warcraft game. Or when we were then briefly purchased by Cendant, and then owned by Havas, then finally on to Vivendi. We’ve gone through quite a few changes throughout the years, and throughout all of it we ensure that we always have our games and players first and foremost in our minds. The same people from Vivendi that have been hands-off in allowing us to develop our games are still there after this merger, and that policy is going to continue to be the same as it always has. While this is a very exciting announcement as it means a lot of positive business c...

One who visited gamespot recently would notice how Eidos purchased ad placements on some of Gamespot’s busiest pages and one could only guess how much Eidos actually spent on those but it’s definitely big, given the high demand for those ad placements because of the Christmas Season and other million dollar games that were released recently that is in dire need of advertising from media giants. Though it’s still a rumor, evidences of Jeff Gerstmann’s untimely termination from Gamespot is due to his poor review (6.0) on Eidos’ Kane and Lynch has been floating around the net and it’s difficult to ignore or brand as “coincidental”. Gamespot and Cnet’s, or even Jeff’s silence in this matter is further fueling the rage ...
