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.

Anyone that says black ops is bad is obviously not seeing how balenced the game was and that it took more skill than mw3 and mw2 , and treyarch is more profestional in keeping hacks, glitches and other various items out of the game. In Blacks ops u couldnt die from 2 bullets making it make u get more skill. Black ops is one of the most balenced games out their and to doubt its predecessor is ignorant until u actually buy it!

Ha, I agree.
Black Ops just sucks. They should ditch the series and make a zombie only game.
Zombie game? Oh, you mean Dead Island. The Call of Duty series is based on war. I don't understand why people only buy a multiplayer "war game" just for zombies.
Well if the game mode is better to play than the actual multiplayer itself, why not get it?
I think they would benefit from a CoD Zombies arcade game.
I happen to agree with you. A zombie arcade game with all the same controls and such as it has now. Honestly, a stand alone version would sell amazingly I think.

i doubt anyone would invest 8 billion they might as well cut that down into 100 million and have more investors

Black Ops is a very balanced game. It may not have the graphics of a Modern Warfare game, but it's still a very good game.
