I will put money on the fact that Activision does not have enough say in Blizzard affairs to make this happen. I will also bet money that there is not one in-game advertisment in Starcraft 2. We will see tournaments sponsored by real companies and their logos will be plastered all over everything advertising for the tournament. Blizzard is the sole reason VUG was ever profitable and everyone knows it. Blizzard is far more importan to Vivendi than Activision is, and they are certainly going to do whatever the hell they want like they always have. The important part of that quote is "trying." Blizzard will never, ever allow that kind of shit to fly, and they definatly have the leverage to put their foot down.
