Pull out of the UK, Block all Ip addresses to teach a continent that american companies should be able to do as they please? :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

I won't say how I really feel as it may offend some. I will say, this guy is a freaking moron.
That dude needs to accept that if MS want to do business in the UK, they have to follow their rules.

- ABK deal blocked
- MS having to pay ABK half of what they paid to get Bethesda.
- 30% decrease in hardware sales.
- Pathetic service growth
- 30 fps games
- Under performing hardware getting beat by an overclocked 8TF RDNA 1.5

The only way this gets funnier is if Sony already made moves to counter the ABK deal in case it did pass.
We all know they did, all in good time...

"UH Hey, square um we cant go to prom together now, my mom said no." But really this is a good point, i do wonder if sony is now rethinking contingency plans now? Jim Ryan probably has a severe hang over and under stably so , so sony may not know what their plans are lol.

Sullivan is the worst amongst all of these you mentioned. He tries so hard to sound neutral. Pops into the playstation OT thread on era, even mentioned that Ps5 is his favourite console. Yet he tries hard to bat for MS to acquire ATVI and other publishers, whines about sony being the market leader and all other kinds of bull.

I can name two-dozen accounts on r/PS5 that behave in the same manner. They engage in general discussion, seem pleasant enough on the surface, but when the topic of Microsoft or Xbox arises their mask slips or they drop all pretence and begin advocating hard. They have little or no activity in Xbox subs, yet know what every Xbox Game Studio is working on, how far along each project is, and express AI-like excitement for the future of Xbox.

Their main export is negativity. Enter any Sony 1st-party game thread and there they appear, expressing low-level disappointment. Visit PSVR and you see the same usernames: "My headset is already collecting dust" or "I'm thinking of selling mine because it makes me sick."

They are Xbox enthusiasts trying to form or shape narrative, and by presenting as PlayStation fans they think their opinion carries more weight.
