That story you related was debunked months ago. The source was entirely disreputable. There is no proof Level 5 is looking to be acquired. There is anecdotal evidence however that Square is not adverse to that. In a heated console war with a semblance of balance their value is exceedingly high, and perhaps too high. The old saying is true buy low sell high.
Microsoft bought low and got themselves Mistwalker. Despite what some think it was a smart cost effective move. I doubt they are going to get in a bidding war over Square, or attempt a hostile takeover. I also doubt that anyone will go after Level 5. Sony cannot afford it, and Microsoft doesn't need to do that. Better to put more money into Mistwalker.
