I mean, this is the better deal, 2027 vs 2033.

Realistically what is activision/blizzard releasing inbetween now and the end of the generation thats not CoD?

So COD for 10 years…or COD and other franchises that no one cares about for just 3.5 years?

Sounds like the 10 year COD is a better deal.
:yeshrug:
Sony nikkas always twist reality to make yourselves feel better.:mjlol:

COD was always 10 years. They even offered to extend the marketing deal beyond 2024. Also offered full feature and release parity.

Sony fukked up all that trying to block the deal. And basically just had to sign whatever was left. :wow:

Such a big L it will only just fund the entire xbox division and games. Such s big L :mjcry:. How will xbox exist with this?
Are you dumb
Sony will make more money off COD the next 10 years than MS because they don't have a 70 billion hole to fill first :mjlol:

Can't wait for gamepass subs to barely increase over what Starfield gets and somehow its worth 70 billion.

Meanwhile Sony going to me cash money off you lames when the next Bungie game drops.

Again, what other titles? Activision/Blizzards biggest games came out already, Diablo IV, Overwatch 2, CoD, nothing else is relevant in the console space.

Yall think they are gonna drop another diablo before then?
I’ll be honest I don’t follow gaming much days so I don’t know what’s on the cards or what’s already out there.

I mean why wouldn’t you negotiate…

There’s no harm in ensuring the people that purchase your console, have access to as many games as possible. If anything it’s more beneficial to you

Whether you deem the said game above “relevant” or not.

Sony just gambled and hoped the merger wouldn’t go through hence why they’ve ended up signing this in the final hours.

Realistically though Call Of Duty on PlayStation wasn’t going anywhere at least in the near future.

Maybe post 2030 had they not signed this agreement but yeah.

Sony know that there’s nothing else they develop that has a chance of releasing in 4 years. Sony will continue to get updates on all their big games plus CoD, theres literally nothing else there.

The last big Crash Bandicoot game sold less than a half a million copies on 5 platforms

:dead: im not sure you understand acquisitions, you're exchanging cash for an asset, the assets worth doesn't just vaporize because you exchanged it for cash. You're betting to earn more on your asset than you would with interest with cash or possible depreciation in currency. Some of yall sony stans dumb as hell :dead: nikka said a 69 billion hole like the asset is worthless
