Xfire bought by MTV Networks/Viacom
As pointed out by Perry in the discussion in the Newly formed MTV Hip Hop Gaming League thread and reported in this morning's Wall Street Journal, Xfire has been bought by MTV Networks for a sum of $102 Million US Dollars. Share your thoughts on this purchase, as Xfire may soon turn out to be to Viacom what Myspace.com is to Fox (A social networking procrastination tool flooded with intrusive and often inappropriate advertisements)
