SOE being sold to India for 300 million

[Ellay]

Well, quite an interesting tidbit of news found at http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/Zapak_set_to_buy_out_Sony_Online_for_300_mn/articleshow/2643807.cms
SOE which is one of the leading companies for MMO's is about to sell to an India based company for 300 million.

I suppose this wouldn't be coincidence that Scott Hartsman the lead Producer for EQ2 which completely turned that game around and made it profitable left 2 weeks ago.

They've produced/owned such titles as Everquest 1 and 2, Vanguard, Star Wars Galaxies, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Planetside - many more.

Any thoughts on where this is headed?

Yes.... three weeks ago I started leveling 5 Palidans

Aloogobi Paneer Tandoori Vindaloo and Masala

All delicious Indian foods that I enjoy eating often.

This company in India obviously got wind of my epic leveling skills and decided to start aquiring companies that make MMO's in the hopes of eventually sponsoring me and my 5 boxing Indian dinner Pally squad.

I am also hoping for Subway to contact me about my delicious Druid sandwich squad..... only time will tell

I guess its just too bad for them that Im now RL boxing with my four clones due to the constant boxing glove ads as I log in....... Im a victim of consistant image advertizing
