If companies want to invest in the gaming industry the regulators can’t just block everything. Especially when harm to consumers is not on the table.
Exactly… prove there will be harm. If u can’t don’t block
Obviously this was bound to happen no surprise here Typical big trillion dollar tech Company forcing hands and buying up the market while calling it good competition 🙄
I’m glad MS owns Activision and I prefer PS5 over Series X. I get COD every year and now I’m his will save me money owning Gamepass. I just hope the games will also available on the PC version of Gamepass.
😂😂
it will be on PC game pass
@Chris georgeno it won’t. Only console
FTC did not have a strong case from the start cause they didn’t know the industry. For a case like this come before them, they should have learned or studied the impact it would be on consumers not the competition.
exacly what he is sayign if MS were to made 90% of Activision Exclusive to PC/Xbox and then the other 10% to be on a case bt case bases than it be prop blocked but thats not the case and if Sony had the $$ and made that deal they would prop lock whole Activision behind PS and Regulators won;t allow that am 100% sure
