Square deal fell through for Microsoft | |
|
||
| Time: 18:28 EST/23:28 GMT | News Source: Eurogamer | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

A report in technology journal Red Herring by author Dean Takahashi has revealed that Microsoft attempted to buy out Sega and Square once again earlier this year, in a deal which would have cost the company over $1.8 billion. Negotiations between the companies collapsed just before E3, however, leaving Microsoft once again without the Japanese giants which have been on its acquisitions radar for several years. Microsoft previously attempted to purchase Sega in late 1999, but its advances were rejected as Sega wished to continue promoting its Dreamcast console. | ||
