Why does everyone think this is gaming related? Just because we're on Vgchartz doesn't mean that everything has to do with videogames (especially when the article was linked from Yahoo). It wasn't even linked from the gaming section of Yahoo, so most of these posts seem like knee-jerk reactions to me.

Most likely they'll buy a software company, but one that doesn't have to do with making games. Microsoft has been swallowing up other companies and crushing the competition for a long time now, this just seems like business as usual (especially with so many companies struggling).

 

Considering the purchase of Rare (the biggest gaming company aquired to date in terms of money) cost around $300 million ... thats only a small slice of $3.75 billion ... Its not all for the gaming division obviously. But some of it could be.
