And neither game is my most anticipated game for the remainder of the year, that literally proves nothing

More people are gonna go out and buy spider-man 2 this fall than starfield. Its not an insult to be less popular than spider-man

And this doesn't make it the most anticipated game of the year...

Hogwarts sold a ton, but the game wasn't heavily anticipated overall.

FTC Petition for Preliminary Injunction Against Microsoft-Activision Deal Is Unfounded | The Recorder

Judge Jacqueline Scott Corley with the San Francisco Northern District Court is expected to decide whether or not to grant this preliminary injunction next week, according to James Skyles of Skyles Law Group.

www.law.com

Despite a significant part of the court's rationale being redacted, the court firmly dismissed the notion that FTC needs to only offer "probabilistic proof of "likely influence" on competitors. Instead, the court instead found that the FTC is required to provide at least "some evidence—be it direct or circumstantial—that Meta's presence had a direct impact on the enterprises in the applicable market." Crucially, the district court rejected the FTC's methodology to utilize probabilistic economic predictions to affirm that a merger could considerably diminish competition.

Although the district court's opinion in Meta Platforms does not bind the court in Microsoft's case, the case epitomizes a broader trend in jurisprudence; that is, evidence of a merger substantially lessening competition requires concrete proof linked to a specific participant, rather than relying on speculative market forecasts, to sufficiently demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits.

Second, Microsoft's promise to EU regulators to allow streaming via "any cloud game streaming services," suggests that Microsoft is not only merely complying with regulatory rules, but fostering a competitive landscape within the gaming industry. Ensuring that consumers in EU countries can freely utilize any cloud gaming streaming services underpins Microsoft's commitment to an open and accessible gaming ecosystem. This initiative not only eases the concerns of monopolistic behavior following the Activision merger, but it also solidifies Microsoft's role in promoting fair competition. It both strengthens consumers' trust and reinforces their market position as a good-faith actor within the industry.

Crazy to see Ponies try and downplay this game when they buying systems just to play the game. This shyt is retarded. Real gamers not going to care about Spiderman they will be playing Starfield.

"Casuals" play Fortnite, COD, 2K, and Madden. They don't realize either of these games exist.

Both games will be good. Christ, this forum is unsufferable sometimes.
