Sony in Ultra Petty mode: Sony has responded to the CMA's decision to further investigate the acquisition, and says it "welcomes the announcement."

Not even stupidity. It's Phil's obsession with maintaining the "Good Guy Phil" forward facing persona.

If they want to make the games exclusive, just say it. But trying to play the public perception game by saying one thing, but then doing the other (shout out to all those Bethesda games you'll probably be able to play wherever you want. ) is really the center of the issue here.

no doubt. people can see through the bullshyt. Dude stays lying. And now it's gonna cost them.

They clearly are not trying to make the game exclusive.

Everything they have ever said about COD is that they don’t want to make it exclusive.

This is just y’all’s fear manifesting

No I did not. That's the whole thing with Jim Ryan from last week and why he made shyt messy. Phil only offered to keep CoD on PS 3 years after Sony's exclusive marketing rights ends.

Phil is telling the CMA that it won't be removed at all.

Again, their fault.

That how you can tell everything that comes out of Phil Spencer's mouth is bullshyt.

He said Microsoft had no intentions of pulling COD, CMA gave them a deadline to make that statement legally binding, they refused to do so. You'd think if that really wasn't their intent, making that concession should be easy to get the deal through.

Yup, What else is there to say. He got caught laying, Jim added fuel to the fire on the lie, and now this shyt will drag on even longer.

Completely Microsoft/XBox leadership fault. COMPLETELY.

Sony Stan's nuts and if sony was buying AB y'all would be as quite as a church mouse.

Just keep it a buck and say you don't want MS to gain any traction for any reason. Even if it a superior deal for gamers as a whole

 

[247Alex]

MS should just make a petty unsolicited cash and stock offer to buy sony

Nah we just dont want established IPs being locked behind a publisher that cant even manage their 1P studios.

Hellblade 2 was announced back in 2018. Its almost 2023 and theres no release window.

So is it about a monopoly or is it not?

Sony really got nothing to lose by keeping their foot on microsofts neck. They gonna get those concessions and Microsoft gonna have to just eat it and like it.

What are they gonna do, start making good games and give sony actual competition?
