SOE NOT being sold to Indian company

On the Internet when a story breaks, everyone jumps on it. The same was the case not too long ago, when Indian site The Economic Times (and subsequently several major news sites) reported that SOE was being bought by Zapak Digital Entertainment for the sum of $300 million, with further details to arrive next week.

Guess what? It's not true. When reached for comment, Sony Online Entertainment President and CEO John Smedley quickly refuted the article. "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," he said. "It's completely and utterly false."

Um...SOE is not known for its ability to tell the truth to people until it's absolutely unavoidable. I (and many hundreds of thousands of others) don't believe a word that Smed says.

How about Zapak Digital? What do they have to say about all this?
