Interesting you say that. Bungie used to hate Microsoft, but they had to let MS buy them out to stay alive. Bungie, since it's now owned by Microsoft, can't quit.
Bungie could quit whenever they wanted to. They just won't want to. And really, Bungie was doing swell before the "most egregious sellout in the history of the known universe" (as Jack Miller from As the Apple Turns recently referred to it in passing). Bungie didn't get Acquired™ so they could "survive". And anyway, Alex started out working for Microsoft when he founded Bungie.

I suppose they could quit, but Microsoft would still own Bungie and all their franchises (Except Myth and Oni, owned by other Evil Corporation, Take 2.) That defeats the purpose.
Anyways, you say that Bungie wasn't "acquired" to survive, then why did they get "Acquired"?
By the way, didn't a certain The Man steal floppies from a certain giant, Evil corporation when he quit?
