The one thing it shows is just how valuable Vivendi thinks the Blizzard name is. They've been Vivendi Games for years - neither mentioning Blizzard nor Sierra in the name. Now they're an even bigger company, and they put the Blizzard name at the forefront.
I find all the doomsday scenario posts amusing, though. Calling Blizzard sellouts and such. Guess they didn't realize that Blizzard sold out in 1994, and have just been lucky to have a name so valuable that all their previous owners have known to leave them as a Skunk Works. It's been out of their own hands for over a decade.

Trade yourself in for the perfect one. No one needs to know that you feel you've been ruined!
