"Too bad"? Are you aware of what that would have done? Take a look at the various companies which Microsoft has absorbed in the past. How many of them still exist in any meaningful form as a part of Microsoft? And how many of them are even a shadow of what they were before Microsoft absorbed them?

I don't see the problem. Atleast not in gaming. Sure they had to close Ensamble studios... But otherwise rest of their development teams have had great critical and commercial success.

Bungie is still Bungie.

Rare is still being invested in to despite it not delivering hits like they used to.

Turn 10 still makes solid Forza games.

Lionhead is still kicking ass.

It wouldn't pay off for MS to demolish Sega and make them in to a shadow of them former selves as they are now.
