The OR guys have said they have no interest in consoles, it wouldn't make any sense. If they're getting bought by anyone it's going to be Valve, but that's also unlikely.

But if MS bought them out, that stance would change.

You know they have to want to be bought out right? Microsoft can't just buy them on a whim. They've stated that consoles are too weak for their tech, why would they agree to a buyout?
