MS let's Bungie go, and completely ignores BioWare and Bizarre, letting them get snatched up by EA and Activision, but they're suddenly going to buy Epic? The company that has only produced one second party game for them? This makes little sense.

Epic likes their independence too much to be bought. They are a fan of mods and user-gerated content, something that MS loathes. Hell, they even make some of their games for Linux.

and Mac

 That's not saying much.  MS released Halo 1/2 for Macs.
