After seeing yesterday's showcase the EU will take pity on Sony and revert their decision. 
Microsoft's acquisition of Activison Blizzard
- Thread starter Darth Vader
- Start date
Xbox fandom is an insane cult.
Lmao, it is ridiculous the amount of non-profit work these clowns do for Microsoft. Has there been any other console gen where the gaming media has so blatantly taken sides?
They always did tbh, the discourse during the 360 gen was insanely xbox biased. Just before the ps4 and xbox one reveals, folks where pushing hard for sony going bankrupt and leaving console market.
I see. I was gaming during the 360 era, but I wasn't paying much attention to the media until last gen.
Not sure, but if they made Marathon exclusive to PS consoles the way I've seen some people say they should've, that would've hurt heir case with regulators for sure. Since they and Bungie already promised that Bungie's games would remain multiplatform, but the first new game from them since Destiny 2 suddenly skips Xbox? Not a good look.
An unpaid fanboy following the tweets of a paid shill. You hate (love?) to see it.
Good you didn't, cause if you think now is bad... whoo boy.
GAF was the source of it aswell. If i had the energy i'd pull out the old threads, but i wouldn't know where to look or what the names of threads where.
What made it worse was sony was bleeding billions they lost everything they made in the ps2 era, there was genuine worry from the fans.
Look at this insane lie. The whole thing is predicated on the basis that this is a Sony vs Microsoft affair, which is conveniently what MS has been framing this as, when Google and other market participants including VG publishers are wholly in opposition to the deal.
Woof woof, says Florian, the filthy MS mutt.
I'm enjoying this tbh, this whole saga is damaging their reputation. Let them go down that rabbit hole.

Seeing how badly he got roasted on the reddit thread before it got locked was funny.
Yeah, I go pretty hard on Derek on Twitter now. Politely, mind, but it's fun calling out his BS with facts in the posts of his that get any actual traction.
Unfortunate for him because I thought he was legit an honest neutral and only started seeing their name pop up this year, but it is what it is.

I think I'm broken. I'm siding with Tom Warren in a MS/ABK acquisition discusssion...
Not on my bingo card for 2023.

It's the "worst person you know makes a good point" meme. It's also a battle between the ones desperate for this deal to go through and and grasping at any conspiracy to make it happen versus the ones who are slightly more grounded in reality.Yeah, Tom is straight up spitting facts
I think Tom realises that it's a weak argument that makes all people fighting for the merger look like unhinged lunatics. I will not mock Tom Warren until July 2023.
