Activision was founded in 1979 by a group of Atari programmers who were dissatisfied with Atari's then-current policy of not crediting the creators of the games.  In 1986, Activision purchased Infocom, and closed down Infocom in 1989.  After this time, all Infocom games were developed by Activision, although the Infocom label was used until 1993.  In December 2007, Activision merged with Vivendi (who owned the rights to the Sierra properties), and the parent company became Activision-Blizzard, although the Activision label (without the Blizzard) is still used on games published by the company.  Re-releases of Infocom and Sierra games are now published under the Activision label.
