Not to mention that would mean.. CoD could maybe only played on Xbox.. as microsoft own xbox, and activision has rights to CoD

Just because Microsoft may buy it, doesn't mean it will be a bad thing. I like how that article still questions the cross-platform compatibility of World of warcraft is Microsoft did buy it. Except they probably don't realise that Microsoft create apps for Mac and iOS devices all the time?

I hope so, Blizzard Activision are two *REMOVED* companies blended into a *REMOVED* supreme so maybe Microsoft will be able to pull it back

Would be a bad move to make. Subscription MMOs are on the decline and Call of Duty is going to decline in the near future.
