You are far to misinformed to be taken seriously
It's not, must the rich kid crying because he didn't get his way
Sony said they have 25 games in development. 10 being live service games, with the other mostly likely being single player games. They have more single player games in development
He never said they were not working on any. He said, he doesn't want to see Gaming's Future dominated by live-Service Games. Sony currently has 25 games in development. 10 being live service games, with the other mostly likely being single player games and that is honestly a very good balance
I am actually shocked by this. All the Twitter lawyers said this was going through. Anyway, I just want this deal approved, so I stop hearing about it

You might not know this, but those plastic boxes sold can lead to new users for your ecosystem. People who buy into your system by buying your consoles make far more long term loyal customers than those who sign up on their phone, which are mostly casual gamer
Sales are far more important. Let's actually give you a nice example. GOWR sold over 11M copies in just 2-3 months at full price. That revenue is literally more than half of th...
You find it interesting a company doesn't want it's site to be used by miserable thin skinned homophobic people, who want to review bomb a game, they(most) didn't play, all over an optional choice that hurts their feelings?
Talk about living under a rock or intentionally being ignorant
Am guessing those numbers for Microsoft includes Xbox, PC and Mobile right?

The same ones they're doing in Japan apparently? I don't know, ask Congress not me
So basically you don't know, and are just regurgitating what the politicians that Microsoft spoke to, most from their home state said. The same politicians that never cared until Microsoft spoke to them? How convenient right? Especially given that, those same anticompetitive practices that you and these politicians accused Sony of are the same...
What anticompetitive practices and monopoly of the high-end console market in Europe is Sony practicing?
This just throws shit in the face of all those who accused Sony of paying to make Xbox versions of some games worse. What is your excuse now? Is Sony paying Microsoft to make the Xbox version of one of these own games worse?
After the acquisition is completed, i believe MS is going to have close to 35 studios, yet rather than asking MS to not only better manage those studios, but also focus on actually releasing games with studios, some people just want them to keep buying more. Are you guys not confident that, even with more studios/IPs than Sony and Nintendo, MS still can't match them, so your solution is for them to just keep buying and buying?
@343_Guilty_Spark
Look I get that ignorance is your coping mechanisms, but you got to stop embarrassing yourself. You bots are truly a special breed.
Nitendo is far more dominant in Japan than Sony, There are numerous American companies that are successful in Japan, tell what happened to your made up home discount? Do those companies use magic to do better in a market MS is failing at. MS during the start of the 360 era secured major Japanese support, bu...

MSFT deals are typically timed
And? Is Sony forcing MS to only pay for timed exclusive deals? Microsoft has a history of paying for lifetime exclusive deals, them choosing to pay for timed exclusive deals is purely on them.
They can pay for the same exclusive deals as Sony, they just choose not to. I guess it far more cheaper to cry to politicians. Just like it was their choice to stop working with Activision for COD, reject Ma...
How exactly is this a bad look?
paying publishers not to distribute games on rival platforms
Microsoft literally does the same thing. Am guessing this politician is paid to ignore all the 3rd party exclusive games Microsoft paid for that magically gave not released on their rivals platform. Or should we pretend Microsoft doesn't do that at all?
-lobbying the FTC and regulators abroad to block the Microsoft – Activision deal

It's also a fact that Psygnosis had between 40-50 people people when Sony acquired them, nothing even remotely similar to what Activision is. At their highest, they had 80 people. Seriously, which publisher has such few people? Activision? You can even call Bungie a publisher and they don't even match the size, the number of IPs, or studios of Bethesda and Activision.
Even while under Sony, Psygnosis was still publishing games for o...
@Imalwaysright
Facts don't care about your feelings Mr. Bot. I get it hurts you and your ilk, but that is reality. Psygnosis was releasing exclusive games on other platforms 4-5 years after being acquired by Sony and even published by other publishers. These are facts you bots can't accept and we all know Microsoft is never going to do what Sony did with Psygnosis. I also noticed you and your ilk don't like talking about the size of Psygnosis and we all know why...
@Imalwaysright
Psygnosis at their hight had about 80 people, not even in the same camp as Activision. Second Psygnosis kept releasing on numerous platforms. They even had exclusive games to some platforms 4-5 after Sony acquired them.
If you are going to list Psygnosis, be sure to include their size and how they still released exclusive games for other platforms years after being acquired by Sony. Am sure we can expect the same from from Microsoft right? ...
Seriously, you bots live in some made up bubble where only Sony pays for exclusive games, calling them anti competitive practices, while ignoring Microsoft who not only has a history of doing the same things, some of their upcoming titles are from 3rd party companies that they paid to keep off Playstation, but you know, MS and bots would rather cry to politicians. Microsoft has been doing this for years. I recall when they paid for exclusive Fifa legends players for 2-3, don't recall a si...
@ryuk_2007
Media Molecules is also a smaller studio compared to the rest of Sony's studios, hell if am not mistaken, Housemarque if am not mistaken is even bigger than them. So maybe, just maybe, theory games don't have to sell like GOWR for them to turn a profit
