Microsoft seeks to buy Capcom
As if Rare was not enough Microsoft is now targeting to buy out Capcom. After the news of Capcom losing money Microsoft has apparently spoke with Capcom about this but was denied purchase of the company. Both Capcom and Microsoft are not commenting on this and I suspect that Microsoft will not be successful in obtaining Capcom.
Microsoft has been targeting out many companies lately and I really do not like it. Microsoft is changing the gaming world so fast that by the end of 2004 I can’t bare to think of who owns what company and who’s developing for which console.
This news is very disturbing to me because Capcom has been one of my top 5 favorite companies since I started as a gamer in 1990. Lets hope that no one buys out Capcom and if anyone does that Nintendo uses the money it got from the Rare purchase towards buying Capcom.
