    *Fingers Cross* Come on EA don't drop the ball. You'd have another Infinity Ward fiasco where half the company just runs and starts another studio. I just prey EA buys them so we don't have to worry about Rock Band being flushed down the drain.

    Please god, don't let Activision buy Harmonix. Forget Viacom, if Activision buys Harmonix this will be the day that the music game died, period.

    Ya if Activision buys them then it wouldnt make sense to have two different games that exactly alike. thats like Cod and Moh having the same publisher.

    Interesting, considering that Harmonix was the studio that created Guitar Hero. Activision would probably just whore out Rock Band as much as they have GH.

    "But some analysts suspect that Harmonix would be a better fit for Activision" If Activision buys them I will cry.
