Vivendi still looking for a €8 billion buyer for majority stake in Activision
Vivendi has been looking for options on how to get rid of their €14 billion debt, and may now have to consider looking internally for the buyer. But even if they are able to pass along the rights, would it even matter? One doesn’t have to look at too many blogs to see that fans are distancing themselves from the company for a variety of reasons. Last month it was reported that WOW lost more than 1 million subscribers, and one can only wonder if games like Diablo III are the cause. Has Activision Blizzard suffered an ill-fate of putting all their eggs in one basket? Do fans feel that they’re getting the same regurgitated product, just with different covers?
Let us know what you think in our comments section! Is Activision Blizzard even worth saving? Can some brave new soul enter the stage with some fresh ideas and bring you back? More on this as it develops.

They Diablo III probably is the reason why WOW lost so many people.
IMO, Diablo III is awesome and a lot better than WOW.
I've played D2 and I prefer that over WoW, I hate WoW.
