Is that what everyone is worried about? I'm more worried about the IPs getting turned into something bland or botched releases due to overly aggressive deadlines. Examples being bioware, bungie, infinity ward, and obsidian which were all acquired by larger companies and as a result turned into "meat grinders" responsible only for churning out titles to feed their parent companies.

Before anyone else mentions it, I will say Insomniac has been a success under Sony — releasing spiderman and ratchet and clank. That said, a company is not a person. You cannot trust companies to behave consistently.
