Sega has acquired Atlus

Atlus is a company that a bunch of us love around here. They've got some great games such as Persona 4 and Etrian Odyssey. I've actually had fun sitting with them at E3 a few times even though I wasn't as familiar with their games. I know plenty of folks on our staff that really enjoy their stuff. Jeremy loves Dragon's Crown for example. 

With $140 million, Sega has bought Atlus from Index Corporation, who filed for bankruptcy early this year. I think Sega got a great company and it looks like they got it at a pretty good price too. Kudos to Sega for a solid acquisition.
