The judge was 100% corrupted and made sure MS could close before the deadline. That was the most important thing for her. Complete disregard for regulators.
Microsoft wins US court case to buy Activision Blizzard in loss for FTC.

Seems like MS reached an agreement with CMA to back to disccuss remedies.
So now MS can show more remedies to cover CMA concerns.
Basically CMA back one step and MS can now try to remeies these concerns again... let's see what new commitement MS will show.

FTC needs a retrial, no idea why they ever let her stay as judge in the first place.
corruption is new Justice. got you.
Seems like the deal is close to being over. Man, that story has been holding gaming industry news in a chokehold for over a year.
Not a fan. The less first party studios the better. Hopefully this doesn't escalate any further
PS has a large enough stable they don't need to panic, but if I was Jim Ryan, I'd be scrambling to lock up Rockstar. If only because MS might get it otherwise. Who knows where this ends.
Looks like CMA might give in.
I am shocked. SHOCKED!
Who would have seen this coming that the CMA bends the knee.
I mean I'm truly shocked.
This isn't the CMA caving. If Microsoft communicated their willingness to reconsider the CMA's proposed remedies, the CMA would be extremely foolish to ignore that discussion. This is more a story about Microsoft acknowledging the CMA's unique muscle and power. They are no pushovers.
The CMA was always open to remedial action. Nothing has changed. In the case of Microsoft vs. CMA, it's Microsoft who have blinked first. The question now is, how far are Microsoft willing to compromise in order to satisfy the CMA's expressed concerns.
My personal hope is that Microsoft remain arrogant and find the remedies unacceptable, and the CMA stand firm.

we can just hope. no chance m$ will cut CoD off, when all this acquisition is to kill sony.
The real question is, does MS has experience in management of that so many studios?
Sooner or later MS will want their investment to pay off.
And looking at how they are managing their studios, I think things will not go well for MS.
