Does Microsoft still own the IPs?

Did they even own any IPs?

EDIT: Unless you meant did the dev even own any IPs.

I think they still own all of them. Unless the dev made a buyout deal, like Remedy did with AW. But they would have said so in that Tweet announcement.

I still see them using the IP's for future games, but good for them.

Not unless they made a new one post-merger.

They already have Rare and Doublefine. Not that they're using them to make platformers or anything.

Edit: And its not like Crash 4 did all that well, either.
