Right now just Brad Smith trying to project confidence in the deal to the media and taking shots at Sony. As expected.Coverage of the closed trial being covered by GamesIndustry.biz:
As it happened: Microsoft's Activision Blizzard press conference in Brussels
Microsoft is talking after today's European Commission hearingwww.gamesindustry.biz
Idas Post says Sony got 30 minutes. I think the live feed is just MS talking to the media after the fact.Does sony get a chance to refute any of this?

That was a Brad Smith quote, as he wraps-up his press conference. That was it.
To recap, Microsoft has signed a deal with Nvidia and Nintendo to bring Call of Duty to GeForce Now and Nintendo Switch consoles. It will also bring all Xbox games (that are on PC) to GeForce Now. Sony, however, remains opposed to the deal and will not sign the agreement.
Of course microsft were going to show boat and make stunts, thats basically what theyve been doing since this deal was announced.Idas Post says Sony got 30 minutes. I think the live feed is just MS talking to the media after the fact.
Brad Smith's talking points don't seem new or convincing imo, but I am admittedly biased. We'll see what the EU and CMA ultimately decide.
MS is doing charity, I cried a little. jokingCoverage of the closed trial being covered by GamesIndustry.biz:

Did you cried from joy, I did. MS is so nice, what would happen to Nintendo and Nvidia without Microsoft charitable work?Incredible stuff.
MS keeping their promise of bringing games to more platforms.

Next we'll have to wait and see what the concession discussions look like, and what the CMA and EU's responses to Microsoft's statements are. Interesting how media-heavy MS approach have been through this process.Of course microsft were going to show boat and make stunts, thats basically what theyve been doing since this deal was announced.

The funniest part is thinking the regulators will give a shit if they make any deal. The CMA said no deals would be good enough.It's funny seeing MS mention Sony can spend all its energy trying to block the deal thinking it's a wasted effort...when they're using as much trying to convince them to take a separate deal.
it is the same with nintendo. they keep ignoring nintendo as they have nothing in the market.It's funny seeing MS mention Sony can spend all its energy trying to block the deal thinking it's a wasted effort...when they're using as much trying to convince them to take a separate deal.
