Microsoft's acquisition of Activison Blizzard
- Thread starter Darth Vader
- Start date
Why is the UK economy’s health dependent on a monopolistic corporation acquiring a large video game company?
Was simply a not-so veiled threat IMO.
My comment from gaf
Something to consider. The cma had to drop the console concerns due to ms calling them out and providing new figures thereby making the cma look incompetent.
I doubt the cma would appreciate looking silly on account of ms calling them out. This might be the cma saying “oh yeah, think you so smart, aight, Lina Khan hold my beer”.
The focus on cloud is iron clad argument for the cma, there is no way out for MS after this. The cma clapped the fuck back.

You think its possible this makes Microsoft delay their Summer games show?
Things Sony didn't do during all this:
- Threatened the UK.
- Ran adds to pressure regulators.
- Talked shit on Japan.
- Started acting like they owned a company before it was a done deal.
nope. They have to show something to make their fanbase happy since this is a huge blow to them.
It's happening no matter what but if they were counting on the ABK deal making up for their usual lackluster show, oh boy.
Showing Starfield unpolished and running at 30fps will also not go down well.
Reality does, every time they are forced to face it.
I bet you wonder......
and what makes him think I needed to rub anything?
Lol that place must be stinking right now
He is really down.
Microsft/Activsion threatened regulators and implied "Asians" are taking over the games industry and theyre here to protect it from them. Theyve burnt so many bridges with this deal. Like real bridges, not the ones xbox fanboys claim where sony fighting abck is burning bridges with game developers.

That's why you don't brag before the deed is done.

Not really, the sony fans on both era and gaf are crawling out of hiding because now they can talk more freely without being afraid of getting banned. the mods hands are tied, they can't ban people after the shitshow xbots made the past year.Lol that place must be stinking right now
