I knew skipping COD this year would bear fruit. Now get to work on that Tony Hawk 3 & 4 remake!
Does anyone care about antitrust anymore? At this point the oil companies should just reform standard oil, the telecom should reform Mama Bell.
For real, especially when this might actually be an opportunity for some real good changes at the publisher itself. Nobody will melt by owning multiple game consoles. We can all enjoy everything.
Oh I meant insult in that he is selling but staying on as CEO. But yeah, frustratingly you are right.
Quote from the blog post:I personally don't think you'll see Blizzard/Acti games on the service. Select titles perhaps, but Blizzard in particular to me is a PC-centric developer best kept separate. Add in the annual CoD launch numbers, and does it make sense to bring it day 1 to a service already kicking so many goals with its own first party/Bethesda titles? It's the old Sony first party day one service argument.
Blizzard in particular to me is the one to watch - that is a mess I'm real curious to see how Xbox/Microsoft both clean it up and get it back on track.
Doesn't sound like a limited selection to me.Upon close, we will offer as many Activision Blizzard games as we can within Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass, both new titles and games from Activision Blizzard's incredible catalog
Probably not for long, usually top C-levels get retired after 1 year.
If only there was a console that people could buy to play those games...if this is going to work they need Xbox game
Pass streaming with all titles on smart TVs and every internet connected appliance by this holiday.
Cool that the company which has consistently failed to capture the interest of the majority of console gamers for four consecutive generations can just buy up the competition.
I 99% game on PC, this news affects me 0% at best. This acquisition is fucking terrible for the industry.I'd love to see whether the people saying it's a bad move and claiming anti-trust are PlayStation owners.
I definitely think there'll be some Xbox owners who think it's a bit much consolidation but I also think if Sony had made this move, there might have been less people saying it's concerning.
Yeah it aint great, hopefully their next purchase is someone to fix that shit hahaI have a high end machine, and would rather play GP on PC, but you know MS and GP on PC with the Windows Store, you know the drill.
Remember when people were confused that Crash 4 released on other platforms too?
Try explaining them why Crash 5 won't be on PS5...
Well, part of the succes of GP is the price, they just want more subscribers.
EU doesn't care about gaming stuff.
