[VGC] Internal Email proves Microsoft's Activision bid is designed to eliminate PlayStation

[Gizmo_Duck]

I mean, we all know this is the reason Microsoft is buying all these publishers but it’s nice to hear them say it themselves beyond the PR bullshyt

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

That's obvious.

MS never changes: Embrace, extend, and extinguish - Wikipedia

And the way people act oblivious to this is what makes it funny lol

That's just standard locker room rah rah talk. You're being paranoid.

Isn't this just capitalism?

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Isn't this just anti-competitive?

Yeah

Evil company trying to destroy small family owned business

Glad Sony is standing up to these bullies

 

[Neuromancer]

Yeah

Nah breh. You know capitalism. You already know how this goes. Make more money than anyone and eliminate the competition.

Don’t argue with me, argue with Phil Spencer

And what I try to get through to people – and I don’t always do it the best way – is that’s not our strategy. If we’re just growing and Sony’s shrinking, that doesn’t help anybody. Maybe if all you care about is Xbox success versus Sony’s success, but in terms of an industry, it doesn’t help Electronic Arts. It doesn’t help Ubisoft, it doesn’t help Fortnite. It doesn’t help anybody if all we’re doing is trading one customer for another customer on a different console.”

Phil Spencer on the future of Xbox: ‘Most people just want to find a great game’

The company’s 2023 Showcase drove home the changes facing the industry, and its need to adapt after a difficult year. Its CEO is positive the way forward is together

The Yakuza is probably more morally upstanding than Microsoft, ngl

Capitalism is 'make the better product and the market will decide the victor'
Late-Stage Capitalism is 'Have enough money? Buy the competition, destroy or assimilate all their improvements; the market doesn't even get a chance until we've eaten first'. It's actually funny how little Late-Stage Capitalism actually meshes with the original ideals of capitalism in of itself, but folks will cognitive dissonance handwave it away because it suits them.

...kinda like how all these conservatives can hold desperately to things specifically spoken against in their bible.

...like capitalism. The bible pretty much is against that too.

But lemme stop. The religion of America is LSC masquerading as an economic policy.

Microsoft would turn CoD into shyte if they had a monopoly on it and PS would still prevail. As if CoD is what is keeping Sony afloat

Those clowns couldn't even take care of a layup like Halo
