People should keep in mind MS just closed down some of their major developers like Ensemble *Cries* . Why the hell would they buy 3D realms ?

All of the Essemble Employees took other Jobs inside MSGame Studios...

 

 

"Microsoft is working to place as many Ensemble employees who do not move to the newly formed studio into open positions within Microsoft as possible."

I'm sure Microsoft did keep many Ensemble employees but it's my understanding that they are attempting to downsize internal development in favour of 3rd party exclusives, some did leave.
