A deal so good that no company wants to tank their IP's by giving them away at a fraction of the price.
It's a deal so dumb no one want's to replicate it and go broke.

Microsoft threatened us Brits and expected us to do nothing because we are polite? Things are going to get increasingly more difficult for them in the UK. I wouldn't be shocked if, right now, there are meetings in Downing Street to move away from Microsoft in all levels of government.Activision’s UK division faces HMRC investigation over transfer pricing arrangements

We have documented evidence that MS payed people for astroturfing 20 years ago, what do you think they do now that it's so much easier and cheaper? There is a reason so many Xbox shills sound so off.
Of course google opposed to it and they should.
it’s so good no one is subscribing to it.
Sega didn't need Sony's help to fuck themselves over. I say that as a fan of sega.
Maybe because of an existing marketing deal with Sony.
Then MS tried the Tomb Raider exclusivity trick against PlayStation and Crystal Dynamics ended up being sold for close to nothing and it dealt a killing blow to the TR reboot.
The best thing about CMA turnover is that all this delusional fantasies of Xbox fanboys have died. They were preaching at a daily basis that Microsoft will gobble up all remaining publishers in the industry after Activision would be done. It’s such a fantastic feeling to see Xbox clout cheerleaders suffering.
You underestimate their delusion, now it's all about revenge fantasy against Sony using that $70B. Every game is going to be exclusive to Xbox, MS will buy FromSoftware/SE/Sega/Capcom, they'll pay for CoD exclusivity and so on.
There are also the revenge fantasies against the UK that are even more weird.
