Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says Microsoft acquiring Activision would be 'a good thing for the industry'.

, Zelnick was asked what he thought of the proposed deal.

“It’s a highly fragmented business and there’s plenty of room for creativity to go around, and Microsoft is an ally of ours, and if this makes their business more powerful we think that’s good for us.”Zelnick was then asked if he was concerned that Activision Blizzard games would become Microsoft’s core focus should it acquire the publisher.

“At the end of the day if [Microsoft is] focused on the power and strength of their own business they’re going to want to be pushing the most successful properties, and if consumers are showing up for our properties and Microsoft isn’t engaged, isn’t involved, isn’t a partner, than that would be a bad thing for Microsoft.

It's true

This is why I was never a fan of Rockstar games being purchased by them..

Was that before or after his Sunday golf session with his buddy Pinocchio Phil?

For the fixing the problems with the companies structure? Absolutely! Regarding CoD? Nope. 100% they will do exactly what they’ve done with the other game studios and that is make other franchises exclusive to them once contracts expire.

Issue of MS acquire 'first 3rd party developer' company still ongoing despite warn from competitor board and even damage to Sony.

I'm not interested in what one multi-millionaire said about another multi-millionaire.

Starting to think it’s not 😶

Oh really!?!? I don’t think Ryan agrees with them 🤣🤣

What they meant to say was that it would be good for them, because the more Activision games that go to Game pass means more money people can spend on Rockstar games

It’s not

After what happened with 343i and Halo I'm not so sure.

If zelnick thinks it's good it almost certainly isn't.

take two

PlayStation are a bunch of hypocrites 😂 there are many 3rd games to don’t make it on Xbox bc of them

Well if they can get Activision in a better condition than what it used to be then yeah, definitely would agree. Otherwise, I mean practically nothing changes besides Activision getting more money to pump out some games. Hopefully a revival of Prototype may come then as result?

Because Activision is dying.

A greedy CEO knows greed when he sees it.

I thought Activision-Blizzard was plummeting, what with all the internal strife and lawsuits going on. Isn't it a good thing another company is buying the devs and IPs? It seems like Act-Blizz wasn't going to survive otherwise...

And he is right.

I guess take two wants to be next

take two wants to be owned by microsoft :D

because he gets paid

Microsoft acquiring _anything_has never been a good thing for anyone except Microsoft. Full stop.

Wouldn't trust the guy who's milked the fuck out of a 10 year old game

Zelnick being envious of all the money Kotick’s getting from that Microsoft buyout, will now sink company so that Microsoft may buy Take-Two.

That's surprising. Considering how huge GTA is on PlayStation I'd have imagined a Take-Two CEO to side with Sony. I'd call it a Rare W though. Sony's being a hypocritical cunt about this whole thing.

No its not a good thing

....Would it tho?

Can some one explain why is it good for the Industry? Just curious please no war:)

Why do we have to have this stupid exclusivity with PlayStation I do t think we should have exclusivity at all

How?

No. It is not, Mr. Strauss 'Definitive Edition' Zelnick.

Especially for users

Competition is always good, hurry up and push this through so Sony can start working on a real MP competitor.

No

Rare zelnick W

of course it will be a win for take2 less multiplat competitors, more monopoly, more money.

it's good for the industry from his perspective because it doesn't effect him in any way lmao

Good for the industry and good for the consumers are two separate things.

Of course he would If he intends to remain multiplatform, it will mean that their biggest competition is on fewer systems than his products are

And for the developers,since all they're making is Call of Duty.

common knowledge. certain fanboys would never understand
