Why? Why would they acquire Netflix? Personally don't get it

Great to see from Xbox. Will be interesting to see what the figures are at the end of next year when they hopefully get their games out.

Fingers crossed they annoucne something for January or February, and we get those dates on Starfield and Redfall, Forza too.

@jordan1992 Don't know where abouts in the UK you are based but where I am it's been quite easy to get both an Xbox and a PS, the last few months, which is a good sign.

I suspect early next year we won't be having this discussion for PS about stock given they seem to be improving supply

It's very disappointing and after the year they had, they should have shown something. Redfall release date, some new reveals.

It's a shame really, we seem to say the same thing every year

Yes, it will go through everywhere in the end I believe. The CMA and the EU will approve with concessions.

@uptownsoul I guess the idea is to negotiate new terms every 10 years or something

This game has proven to me not to expect too much for new titles. Been very underwhelmed with it so far.

Personally think that if this falls through Sonys current marketing agreement they have with Activision will be the last they sign.

Still think it will go through in the end with concession.

@Kaloudz as an online game I would agree.

Still have high hopes for Starfield. Really want them to deliver. Fingers crossed they do.

We know what their 6 month exclusivity means lol

@Joabra01Swe yes, there are Xbox achievements it seems, which feels weird saying

They have now updated the image with rain in the background, definitely think it's Death Stranding

It will close this year, I'm sure of that. Seems to be going at speed and we should hear from regulators this month, most if not all.

Do we know who is involved at Roundhouse? They have not made anything no?

It's been an interesting day and has made for some great reading, both here and on Push Square. It makes me laugh and it's ironic given Sony's position and their stance on taking content away from Xbox. Phil Spencer has already said they would not pull COD.

The ploy and the idea is that Call of Duty will be part of Game Pass, and all along for me was the best part of the acquisition. I couldn't care less if it went exclusive.

Personally, I don't think the FTC will ask for any concessions.

A real bummer, given I suspect it would of been pushed heavily to release alongside the 2nd film.

That said we hadn't seen anything for a while had we? Was perhaps inevitable

Getting a lot of ABKs titles into Game Pass this year would be a good way to make up for the lack of titles this fall.

I may end up picking up the Life is Strange remastered collection at £21. Will see.

Game Pass has definitely changed the way we consume games. I've discovered so many games through GP that I wouldn't have tried, particularly indie games.

I'm quite excited to see the fruition of the acquisitions over the coming years. All in GP, day 1. Even if they raise the price to £15 or even £20, for me it's worthwhile. I just hope they can maintain the standard of quality, that they showed last year. I keep seeing this idea that GP reduces quality, and I don't understand why - 2 out of their games last year on XSX were 90+ and and even the other 2 were 87.

I picked up the premium add-on bundle when it first launched, so get it as part of that. Looking forward to it.

October is turning into a great month for games.

I really enjoyed the first one so I am looking forward to this.

Started playing RE3 yesterday - Had held off playing until the next-gen update was released, so looking forward to properly getting into it.

Really enjoyed Bright Memory, so I am looking forward to this one.

B for me. I had adjusted expectations when they said coming in the next 12 months. They'd have perhaps been better saying that a week in advance.

The Quarry for me

Looking forward to it!

Great to see Street Fighter get an Xbox release this time. Looking forward to it.

Would love to see them announce this and Persona 5 as a GP title next week. That would be great

It will be interesting. I did see someone say on Twitter that FF7 remake was no longer appearing under PLaystation Console exclusives, so may be there is something in that.

Maybe we see something on Plague Tale launching soon.

Looking forward to seeing more.

Roll on 2 weeks. Really looking forward to it.

The Quarry for me. Love Supermassive's titles.

I'd have loved a new SAW game tbf

Was never going to get this year's COD in Game Pass. Next year's possibly, but not this years.

Looking forward to seeing more.

I'd only trust them under Microsoft or Sony. Google haven't shown anything, Apple or Amazon we don't know what would happen, probably not any good, and Tencent no one wants things under.

Sony can't afford something of that scale, and MS can't do anything until after Activision and I don't think they'd get something of that scale through straight away.

Not surprised, and to be honest, will be the better option than releasing something not ready.

Will make the showcase even more interesting now as as it stands they are not releasing any 1P game for the rest of this year.

@JudaiMasters

Not necessarily. There's a few they've showed off at SOP which has released on Xbox same day. They showed off the initial trailer at one of their events so was always going to be shown at another of their events.

I'd still look forward to it. I think they'd have had better numbers had it been quicker, but I suspect Sony had some say over that.

I'd like to see it on Xbox but I won't hold my breath. I suspect Sony have secured some sort of exclusivity.

Very good to see Atlus acknowledge Xbox as a platform again. Let's hope it leads to more.

Great for the single player stuff. Not always great for the online stuff, but a great feature I like

My intrigue went up a notch, so will be an Xbox purchase now.

I've not understood the uproar either to be honest. The pull regardless imo was all Acti titles going to Game Pass Day 1, and being part of the subscription service.

Must admit I'm about 12 hours in and I've not experienced any bugs/issues yet, or notable ones. I must be one of the lucky ones.

With MS's budget behind them I'm really looking forward to seeing more of this.

Nothing we didn't already know would happen. It might end up taking a bit longer, but no real reason it shouldn't go through. It's nowhere near a Monopoly, and as a few others have said, Microsoft would be the third biggest

Elden Ring for me on Xbox. Will wait to see what the reviews are like for Dying Light 2.

I am excited to see what they do with the legacy IPs tucked away in Acti's vault. Hopefully we get to see some of them.

Of course, Game Pass is going to be the big attraction here. All going day and date alongside Xbox Game Studio's and Bethesda's titles.
