I suppose I overestimated Valve's value since they made a console. They definitely couldn't afford ABK.

But otherwise I think their studios have not been shuttered, and their games haven't been complete flops like some of MS game studios.

All Google/ Amazon would need to do is support game development/innovation and clean up the corporate culture. Otherwise they wouldn't need to have a big hand in the day to day operations.

Care to explain what games recently from Ms have been complete flops?. And like i said so your ok with any other big tech making this deal as long as it isnt Sonys direct competitor?.

I'm confused why are keep making this question over and over 

MS being the direct Sony competitor is the only reason why there is debate about Blizzard upcoming acquisition 

Nobody would care if it was just a billionaire saudi using their money to buy another piece of a market they don't have presence yet

That's the same question that arrives when Disney buys Fox, because they are from the same market. As someone who uses box office and cinema forums and boards the discussions used to be just as strong as here, although the consensus was the acquisition was not good and it would be better if Fox was still independent
