Microsoft's acquisition of Activison Blizzard
- Thread starter Darth Vader
- Start date
To weaponize and use it against MS.
Yes, to use MS own deceit to expose them.
things are getting messed-up.
i know we have a lot of Playstations fans here.
I have to ask something.
How can you not see all the mental/emotional damage PlayStation is exerting to gamers around the world?.
even Pacther said he was pissed of at PlayStation's behavior...i swear i heard his voice cracking up a bit when he said sony are acting little whiny babies.
having a mental breakdown is not fun. I wonder if some of those people will hate PlayStation even more after all this circus is over.
People having a mental breakdown over Xbox dying will never not be funny to me. It's a shitty plastic box.
No one is going to hate Playstation after this who didn't already hate them, except maybe Activision execs, and it's not like they would stop doing business with Playstation if they were suddenly forced to stay independent.
The ones who are expecting a hefty bonus in the event of the merger definitely will (hi Lulu!).
Lulu won't be an Activision exec for long after the acquisition fails. She's poisoned the well and it's not far fetched for Sony to voice their opinion, shall we say, to the ABK board on how the lucrative relationship just wouldn't work with her and Bobby anywhere near the helm.
I agree.
If hate = console, games and accessories sales...it looks like nobody is hating PlayStation at the moment or anytime soon.
Over emotional fanboys means nothing to the bottom line and their little podcast is not influencing trends.
And although that is not their intention (since they couldn't care less), that alone would indirectly improve work conditions at ABK.
Correct! And new management may see the benefit of releasing COD on Switch and GFN, but probably not the latter because honestly who gives a shit about GFN. This is a better market outcome for everyone that doesn't result in an SLC.
There is already this thread but nobody goes there lol

I started this sticky because it seems like it would be something where people could share their feelings about how another site got them banned permanently or simply wanting to discuss the strengths of another site over this one. Remember the rules : NO personal insults of people regardless...

It was lose lose situation, you show contract and expose your bullshit, or you redacting and show your bullshit, that contract so good that you just hided it from public to the same public you are appealing
She is gone 100 %. Workers are extremely unhappy with her. She denying left and right rightful rises of salaries with : m$ will do it when sale pass through. And other bullshit from her.
Not even them. Money is all that matters to these people.
Lulu should've been fired already. The way she personalized this whole deal is ridiculous and unprofessional. She always sounds like a child throwing a temper tantrum and it's not the right way to do business.
So, whatever Patch said it ends otherwise. So, it will be very bad for Xbox.
Stalker 2, Darktide, not to mention locked Bethesda games from other platforms after acquisition like Hifi, Redfall, Starfield. When you trying to compare something, do it properly. And btw. Death Stranding. It is like you mentioned Bloodborne and why isn't a multiplatform. :/
That's not a taking away games from other platforms. It would be released on other platforms sooner or later just like Deathloop and Ghostwire.
Comparing timed exclusives, it will appear on other platforms sooner or later comparing vs 3rd party publisher buyout and whole IP library and locking them from other platforms ( like MS did with Bethesda 2 years ago ). Totally 1:1 comparison. Totally makes sense. :/
