So I was perusing my usual sites and I came across some interesting information.
Seems like Vivendi Universal and Activision Inc are merging to form Activision Blizzard (though Vivendi, Blizzard's parent company, will still own more than half the new corporation).
A few official links for any interested...

Personally, I'm not too excited about the concept. The creation of an EA Jr. isn't a good thing as far as I'm concerned. The only good thing I can see coming out of it, is more of Blizzard's greatness (the upcoming StarCraft 2, for example) on consoles. I'm not at all worried about WoW, because Activision would be dumb as rocks if they put their hands in that which has been proven to be the most successful online game ever and mess up those works...that and I don't play WoW anymore. :P
