And Nintendo or Microsoft didn't have the money......how? It just seems a little odd especially since Nintendo and Microsoft would most likely be more than willing to pay a huge sum of money to buy out Rare and more than Activision would ever be willing or able to pay. The only way I could see Rare being bought by Activision is that the Stamper Bros. weren't totally concerned with the amount of money they'd get. They must have also had certain preferences that Nintendo or Microsoft just couldn't meet such as allowing them to go multi-platform, etc. Anyways, right now it's only a rumor so........

Yeah, they are probably eagar to be a 3rd party.

We'll see at e3
