Earlier this month, the UK Competition and Markets Authority said it had provisionallyand “result in higher prices, fewer choices, or less innovation for UK gamers”.
The regulator outlined several potential structural remedies that might help clear a path to it approving the deal, including a “partial divestiture of Activision Blizzard” that could see it selling off the part of the company that deals with Call of Duty, or even the entire“We don’t think it’s feasible or realistic to think that one game or one slice of this company can be carved out and separated from the rest,” Smith told reporters on Tuesday, according...
The biggest problem is BobbyKotick
But certainly with muddled water using psvita and PS4 that aren't relevant at the moment and hiding usa numbers.
Sony had the biggest market share because they make great games and great consoles. It really is as simple as that.
Nintendo doesn't exist according to Microsoft lol They just can't be taken seriously at this point
yes, of course, who believes this? where is nintendo, they have the best selling console!
2 different things,consoles are not videogames,owning 70% of the console market will mean shit if you own 70% of the software market and decide not to release it on Playstation,of course you will want that to make money
Do they think regulators will fall for this pathetic poor me act by Microsoft 🤦♂️
Oh Look Xbot math. I can see Phil now when someone brings up the Switch being a Console that is more succesful than PS5 and also more successful than 360+XBONE+XBSX/S combined. He are math at bad? Fuck Sony,Nintendo,Microsoft. Conglomeration is BAD. ConsoleWarriorsAreDorks
I don't want this deal to go through. Not because of a dumb console war I just don't think Bobby Kotick should get his payday.
Nice
🫢… 😮💨… 🤭… 🤣
Well, actually yeah because Xbox tried to launch the Xbox One with the Kinect which was a massive failure and I'm still not entirely sure if they have gotten back from that
The overinflated numbers and mass lies arent going to win you shit, microsoft.
I thoight they didnt care about consoles? But also......just get better? They need to look inward and figure out WHY people arent buying as much.
Microsoft has failed in the console war every time. They need to throw in the towel. Cut their loses.
How can Microsoft sit there and claim that Sony is trying to 'protect its two-decade dominance in video games' when that very statement is a lie? Nintendo has been the dominant video game force for the past 2 decades with the Wii and Switch.
That's their own fault. Besides, Activision games are ALREADY available on Xbox consoles. Why do they have to buy those historical mutiplatform IP's in order to compete?
And ponies and regulators act like Sony doesn’t have a monopoly in the video game market😒😒
So in order to stop Sony, you’re going to buy other devs and block Sony from getting games instead of focusing on making games and having a steady release schedule, looking at 2022. I have both consoles and I question why I even bother with the Series X
So, maybe Microsoft should try to make their own stuff better instead of trying to take away from their competitors. Because all they're going to do is fuck this up too. They don't need more IPs and studios. They need better management. Period.
and nintendo has 0%
Just stop lying, this photo was taken on stage, at the press conference.
PlayStation is my console of choice. Both systems offer the same third party games, but PS has more interesting exclusives.
What about Nintendo ? The switch is the 3rd best selling console of all time? It's really not Sony's fault xbox is a failure
If Xbox wants to sell they need to make good games.
This deal would bring Xbox up to 40/45% market share at best. No one is buying an Xbox specifically for CoD when the franchise is clearly on decline. WZ2 and MW2 are losing players. Look at the stats I guarantee most of the remaining CoD community is either on PC or PS.
How can they use Nintendo as an example of another platform holder that isn't opposed to the deal and then ignore their market share when it's convenient?
And this is why when Microsoft sit around and fuck around while Sony busy making the smart choices Having both consoles Last game I played on Xbox was high on life and meanwhile on PlayStation God of war Forspoken Stray Last of us pt 1 remake
Playstation not just buy publisher they make great game and know how to treat the player. while Microsoft lazy ass want the market share by just buying the biggest publisher. they great ip but they dont want to think about game. Buy popular ip and win.
Nintendo 0% ?
Breaking records since 1994, what about it?
What about Nintendo and Steam? 🤷🏻♂️
But why does Sony have a larger market than Microsoft? Because Microsoft dropped the ball, that's their fault. I find it ironic that the thing Microsoft did to the PC OS market back in the day which they didn't have a problem doing is now happening to them and they don't like it.
Earned
And where's Nintendo? I mean, they did an agreement for 10 years, whats Nintendo's share?
That sounds more like a monopoly than anything Microsoft is doing
PlayStation has a 97% Xbox has 3%.
And they left out Nintendo's market share why? Oh right. Because they want to mislead regulators.
correction: not 70% to %30
To be fair this includes PS4 and Xbox One, and possibly even earlier. The Series X/S are doing better than the Xbox One did, but obviously it's a good look for MS to present a greater disparity.
And Nintendo has 0%? Who did the research for this?
Curious as to what it would be after the deal. 🧐
Well maybe they should do some work instead of not releasing games for a year at the time
Hmm 🤔 wasn't it 80/20? What about Nintendo's share?
Who's fault is that? You decided to make gamepass and not give a shit about your console or games. But now you're buying your way to the top
PlayStation been breaking records the past few months
There adding tv and movies sonys entire entertainment industry rather than just gaming were Ms is only showing gaming if anything there manipulating the facts for themselves
Por que Xbox estropea todas las IPs que compra
And yet regulators still feel the need to protect PlayStation for some reason. Shameful.
They didn’t even mention Nintendo market share at all lol
'they're better than us but we cant sell consoles bc our buyers already own pc's, wah wah wah' Give it a rest MS, sheesh.
