C level execs never get fired, they retire to go do other things, like family, gardening etc.  He probably would not leave right away as well but there will be conditions if MS wanted them.  Right now, all is just speculation so who knows what will happen.  For all we know, Bobby could just move to another position within MS as a condition.  Something like head of HR or customer service.

So you believe MS could demand that no more MP games are released before the deal is closed but couldn`t fire Bobby and other execs involved in all the troubles caused at Acti?

MS can demand whatever they want, its up to Act/Blizzard whether or not they agree to the terms.  In other words, MS coming in saying I will purchase your company at this price, here are our terms.  Its on Acti/Bliz to say yes or no.  They will have over the months multiple meetings hashing out the terms of the sale.  Actually, they might have already hashed out those agreements and now its just getting approval of the sell.
