Fixed

So is this true.

[ethomaz]

So is this true.

WSJ... so 90% sure it is... they didn't make bad rumors.

[Mmm_fish_tacos]

Then why would he tweet that?

[the-pi-guy]

Then why would he tweet that?

Money talks. 

[ethomaz]

Then why would he tweet that?

It is a 2012 tweet

He said NO to MS in the past... now MS will buy them.

[Mmm_fish_tacos]

Oh okay, Anyway MS is a big phile of shame. I've been on the fence about an x1 for a while now. Thinking about jumping in on the recent deal thats going on this week. Not now, they  can forget about it. I'm tired of them making gaming worst than actually moving it forward.  Sony has already proven if you build it they will come. Maybe MS should learn something. Throwing their money around isn't going to get them back in the game. Only hard work and dedication will. It's a sad fact the only semi successful IP they made and not bought was forza. It just shows MS has no talent, at all.

I don't think it's true.

Wsj has had some bad gaming rumors as of late.

" according to a person with knowledge of the matter" Like really?  This is your source, some person?  Not "an insider told us", not "Someone at Microsoft told us".  Plus this news comes out conveniently when Destiny's about to destroy records with the PS4 on the forefront?  shame rumour started by people at MS to slow down sales of PS4s if you ask me.

seems like notch himself suggested the deal to MS, and will leave once MS buy it. if this is true seems like he wants out and wants a huge retirement fee. im still taking this with a grain of salt though. but depending on these rumors we should know soon enough.

Yeah I'll believe it when I see it
