That is the most off the wall company to say is going to buy SoE.

Which makes it kind of more believable.

No idea who made this up. We are in discussions with various companies in India about bringing our games to this growing market but that's it. We aren't for sale.

I seriously doubt the guys that run Zapak.com - Free Online Games India, Play Free Online Flash Games, Multiplayer Games, Download Free Games and More are in the market to buy SOE out. But damn that would take the cake if true.

Read, please:
In the "About Us" section

Reliance ADA Group Among India's top three private sector business houses, with a market capitalization of Rs. 100,000 crore (US$ 22 billion), net assets in excess of Rs 31,500 crore (US$ 7 billion), and net worth to the tune of Rs 27,500 crore (US$ 6 billion).
Although it is more likely then not that this story is fake.

That's a lotta crore.

Glad to hear that the story isn't true... people were kinda freaking out in the 1-9 channel on Najena. Lots of Indian CS jokes though, which are always welcome

Wow, they sure are going to feel dumb when they have to recant and post an explanation.

That article just quoted what the other one did.

With or without the Boss-Man denying these rumors....sometimes you need to just think a little and not just believe what you read.

Something that would be a very large deal...is kept quiet until December 22nd and claims to be happening within a few days to a week? Not only that but there is no real information really. They list a few companies and well, thats all. You don't think that major names would be put in these letters? lol

And I personally don't think people want to be doing a business trade like this with the Holidays right here. Just my opinion.

In ending, think a little will you.
