I'm kind of surprised Microsoft has never made a serious push to buy Unity. I know that I would be happy to be able to use Core and more modern C# than Unity's rather old version of Mono.

The Microsoft M&A team will obviously be busy with GitHub but I would be surprised if no one there thought of it already. It does however seem to me like Microsoft know that Window's dominance is on the wane and they are pushing to be a software developer's 'tool' vendor. Considering how important Unity is to game development, from grass roots up to big triple A games, it does seem like an aquision target.
