Fantastic. I especially loved their response to the premise that a block was stifling innovation. They said flat out: businesses understand the difference between investing in a new company, a new venture, growing a business etc. and a well established business buying another well established business. The latter isn't innovation but consolidation with a path to monopoly in this case.
Phil on his way out, they are already setting up his replacement:
They also found a solution to Xbox inability to produce games, they'll have AI do it for them.

The specific person in question is your typical useless backbencher making noises.
Yeah, not sure how letting Xbox buy all of this stuff benefits me as someone who primarily games on Playstation. I haven't seen anyone able to answer that with anything other than hypothetical scenarios that involve Sony maybe making a competitor that may or may not even be an acceptable replacement or being forced to pivot to a subscription model that I think would be a net negative for my platform of choice.Take-Two Boss Supportive of Microsoft-Activision Deal: 'What's Good for Them Is Good for the Industry' - IGN

I wonder if Sony need to look into what they can do to gain more friends in this industry so that they're less eager to throw them under the bus when something like this happens.Take-Two Boss Supportive of Microsoft-Activision Deal: 'What's Good for Them Is Good for the Industry' - IGN

This part of the nonstop pressure campaign i was referring to the other day. Its going to be everyday of news articles, ceo comments, "market analysts" etc etc saying how great this deal is and how wrong the CMA are. I also expect MS is calling members of Parliament and UK government officials as well.Take-Two Boss Supportive of Microsoft-Activision Deal: 'What's Good for Them Is Good for the Industry' - IGN

Too many other better things going on in gaming, like the Playstation showcase, to be freaking out and worrying over something like this.
Sony has over 2:1 advantage wordwide, and 4:1 in Europe. For AAA publishers it would be better to have a stronger Xbox that offers more competition to Sony.Take-Two Boss Supportive of Microsoft-Activision Deal: 'What's Good for Them Is Good for the Industry' - IGN

I personally don't think MS should be granted ownership of all these publishers just for some hypothetical scenarios that may or may not be beneficial.
There’s no world where Microsoft being a leader in any segment is good. They suck at everything they do, including OS and Office. But they strong arm the market into using their bad software and companies have no other choice.
I didn't say that they'd want MS being market leader. I said they'd prefer MS to be more competitive, closer to (but still behind) Sony.
Windows and Office are the type of products you rarely have a say if you are going to support it or not, comes with new laptops (where most of the time you have no choice but to pay for it), your school buys, your government buys, your college buys it, your work requires it, they all get suckered/bribed into paying for unnecessary software and people get conditioned to using it.
