Where is the 20% info? The FTC doc doesn't say it.

It doesn't say the actual number only that it was less than the standard 30% but it's known thanks to the FTC case that Xbox were taking 20% .... Pretty obvious they both were taking the same percentageMaybe we are reading different things...

That is where we disagree.It doesn't say the actual number only that it was less than the standard 30% but it's known thanks to the FTC case that Xbox were taking 20% .... Pretty obvious they both were taking the same percentage
Okay so by that logic they wouldn't have accepted taking less than 30% would they but they didThat is where we disagree.
Because in exclusive deals Xbox needs to pay way more than Sony due the size of userbase.
Why do you believe it is not the same here?
At the negotiation... user base matters and Activation could ask way more from Xbox than Sony.
So it is not that obvious.
More like Xbox was forced to accept whatever deal Activision wanted.
Sony was not in the same position.
By the logic Activision have less power to negotiate a deal with PlayStation than Xbox.Okay so by that logic they wouldn't have accepted taking less than 30% would they but they did
So seems that with the acquisition:
Ah you guys complained about Jimbo, the acquisition seems more benefitial to PS than to Xbox xDDD
- PS continues getting CoD
- PS no longer pays CoD marketing
- PS gets a higher revenue share from CoD
- PS gets even the Xbox Studios games on PS
- PS pretty likely will get in cloud gaming the ABK games like CoD via Ubisoft
Yeah 1/3rd increase in revenue from COD……. Sony cant complain.If i did my math correct, So if COD sells 10 million at full price for 70 dollars on PS5 before sony wouldve made 140 million and at 30 percent theyd make 210 million. So almost half the budget of Concord!
'back home' it's always been multiplatform & still is ...
Yeah forgot to add the word 'ultimate' after the word gamepass seen as he'll be playing it on Xbox where as pc gamepass players will be playing it on the less expensive tier subscription ... How very pro consumer for Microsoft's console playersAaron doublecheseburger what an idiot
Another reason for me to dump consoles for PC. But I can't bring myself to do it.He'll be playing it on Xbox where as pc gamepass players will be playing it on the less expensive tier subscription
Didn't you say the goal of the acquisition for ms was to make games third party?And if Sony was honest during the trials, and they relied on COD to make first party games, this would be good new for first party studios at Sony.
Um, no? I don't even know who you are lol.Didn't you say the goal of the acquisition for ms was to make games third party?
that's weird let me refresh your memory, Yesterday you told us Nintendo was beating playstation incredibly hard.Um, no? I don't even know who you are lol.

And when I asked you which games you played this year, it turned you played more than 20 games. But no Nintendo games...
But I guess it was poster quite similar to you then, maybe @peter42O . Who made the point that the goal was to go third party.
Ah Nintendo is beating ps5 by losing each month circana. But you didn't say that yesterday you said following, without mentioning sales.I mentioned that Nintendo was beating Xbox and PlayStation in console sales. Not sure what your concern is?
Nintendo is so far ahead of PS and Xbox, they can hit pause and still dominate. I am curious as to what the next gen Nintendo will bring that is innovative.
Kvally has multiple personalities depending on which message board he posts. I think he gets confused which console he's supposed to stan for on Icon.

Playstation gamers continue to win.Great post, but notice that is all PlayStation winning, sprinkled in with Xbox losing. As always.
But what is missing is gamers winning.
