The most interesting thing about this buyout is that Blizzard has stated that the intent of it is to start creating more console games. They now how a new studio dedicated to these console games after SC:Ghost ships.

Wasn't the old Blizzard North (pre Diablo) a console game maker? I recall in dicussions with the Hellfire programmers were they noted that the code for Diablo showed some such "hints" that it was from people that seemed to be more into console than PC coding. Perhaps the difference is smaller today though.
There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
