I want the deal to go through because both companies are going to lose money
>sony will lose because they cant get 30% gibs anymore
>microsoft will lose because activision will die under them, just like every other company they’ve purchased
Win win situation
That doesnt matter because sony will lose marketshare when people leave since COD will be on Xbox, fucking pajeet
It would remain on both, Rajeesh
>It would remain on both
Nah. Maybe this console generation since the time to entice people to buy your system with your exclusive lineup is pretty much over. But announcing the next Xbox and making the CoD games exclusive then would be the power move.
No, imbecile. Sony didn't accept the 10 year deal because they know that they will have a much inferior version. MS said fuck it. Their lawyers are already in the lead and the only thing holding Sony's hopes up is the CMA. They're done if the UK doesn't stop this
>NOOOOOOOOOOOO SONY IS GOING TO LOSE MARKETSHARE ACK ACK ACK
sony isn’t going to die from the purchase and anyone, for or against the purchase, who says they will is a massive fucking retard
>no more shitty Activision games

What do you expect them to do? One of the biggest gaming franchises is about to become exclusive to their competitors platform, the job of the Sony higher ups is to obviously fight that for the good of their platform, if he said nothing and just let MS do it then he would be an incompetent failure at his job
He can fight it without looking like a petty child that has a vendetta.
tfw no chinese gf
Microsoft has dozens of studios and IP doing jackshit and the only upcoming game they have is Starfield. It's a miracle Hi-Fi Rush was released to begin with.
fuck microsoft, love sony
Xbox is a failed brand and is trying to buy the industry to succeed, fuck them

Reminder they also killed Rare, introduced paid online to online console gaming, want to strip all ownership away from the consumer by making everything digital-only on Xcloud and Gamepass, and all off their exclusives are mtx-riddled pay-to-win garbage like Sea of Thieves, Gears4&5, and Halo 5.
It's also funny that some of you think buying Bethesda is going to save them. Bethesda hasn't made a good game since Skyrim, the rest of their games can't even hit metacritic scores of 80. Let's not also forget they let Bethesda put the Horse Amour DLC on the 360 marketplace back in 2007. If they hadn't done that, microtranstations and other bullshit greedy DLC practices wouldn't even be a thing today.
Microsoft is the most greedy, anti-consumer, monopolistic, disgusting company there is. Stop defending their shit, Ganker.
The SERIES ASS is an shit cucksole designed to scam the consumer renting chud indie games and 14 year old 360 games like goyim cattle.
If you buy and/or support Microsoft in any way, even ironically, you deserve death.
Something tells me paid DLC would have been a thing even without horse armor.
this image made me kek out loud, thanks for posting it
I didn't laugh hard because it's nighttime, but I let out a couple cough-laughs
>killed Rare
Sea of Thieves still pumps out constant content. I find it very hard to believe it is a dead or failed game.
to be fair, they also have EA doing the exact same thing which is also killing their console. So I can see why Microsoft is trying to buy these companies so EA can't run it into the ground 100% of the time.
they will kill activision, but that is a good thing
I think all mergers and buy outs should be undone under threat of nuclear annihilation.
Just imagine, having square AND enix back.
>I just want to block your merger
Kinda based ngl.
I only want Sony to keep existing so the console wars continue. As long as it remains Xbox vs Playstation their attention won't turn to PC. As soon as that war concludes the victor will quickly turn their ire towards PC and work on raping it into the ground, something that basically failed as of a few years ago with all the different proprietary launchers finally dying but would absolutely see a resurgence once there wasn't anything else to focus on. M$ is the more likely victor and that's really worst-case scenario since they would then be running both the only real gaming console and the majority of the world's operating systems. Even if you're a linuxfag that just means they'll try even harder to push you out instead of mostly ignoring you. Without Sony's competition we'd end up seeing a total M$ monopoly on video games and that is not a world I want to live in.
Microsoft is already on PC and treats us well. All of the anti-consumer practices plaguing the industry is snoy.
Yeah no shit, but what happens if Sony stops existing and M$'s only competitor becomes PC platforms that they don't control? Do we go back to Games for Windows Live? Or do they just start making things xbox exclusive? M$ is a greedy piece of shit company, if they see an avenue to monopolize an industry they will capitalize on it. That's what console wars are all about, monopoly. It's not "healthy competition", it's "choke your competitor to death so you can be the only option". As soon as the current primary rival finally dies they will move on to the next one until they're the only ones left. If you think that's unrealistic or hyperbolic, they already did it with operating systems.
who cares, only nintendo and pc matter
Apple is dead? Linux is dead? Since fucking when?
>what happens if Sony stops existing
I'm pretty sure any other big tech company would like to invest in Sony to keep at least Playstation alive. That even includes Microsoft. Remember, Microsoft invested in Apple in 1997 to save that company from bankruptcy and to prevent regulatory entities to control what they could do with the PC market if they were left alone.
Microsoft coexists with Steam peacefully, I mean Halo is on Steam after all. That coupled with W10 gaming PCs being glorified custom Xboxes I don’t see MS doing anything to ruin what’s already going smooth for them whereas Sony will just continue their cartoonishly evil bullshit.
It's hilarious watching Jim Ryan torching all the good will from third parties like telling Activision he's gonna block their deal and telling EA that Battlefield sucks. Sony's going back to PS3 era Sony arrogance.
>No arguments, just emotional response
Just like their shills.
can he go to jail for that?
I don’t think he’s doing anything illegal but he’s certainly raping his own brand with his actions.
No he can't because it's not at trial yet, so he can't perjure himself and Sony have made their stance to the UK and EU regulators that they want the deal blocked so he didn't lie. Where this hurts them is that regulators will now take into account that Sony refused to enter negotiations with Microsoft in good faith when they were offered a 10 year deal, contrary to what Sony has said earlier in the process (Where they said the 10 year deal MS offered wasn't good enough).
Also that sort of statement completely fucks them over with third parties trusting Sony on deals because now third parties will think "Sony's going to stab us in the back if we make a deal they don't like". So it was a bit of a "Fuck you" from Activision designed to have a wide reach to other publishers saying "This is what Sony will do if you make a deal they don't approve of". Which could have some interesting consequences down the line.
fuck off
