Re: Microsoft Refers To Lack Of Xbox Exclusives As Why ActiBlizz Deal Should Be Approved

@NEStalgia that doesn’t matter. Some of Playstation’s biggest selling games are TLOU, Spiderman, GoW 2018, Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon, all made by Sony owned devs after Sony bought them. Xbox true exclusives, Halo, Gears, Forza don’t come close in sales so now MS are simply buying already huge, 3rd party games.
It’s like me inventing a new car and my cars become the best selling cars in the world so Ford buy Nissan, BMW, Volkswagen, Skoda an put Ford badges on their cars an Ford become the biggest sellers in the world.

Re: Microsoft President Talks 'Disappointment' With FTC Over Call Of Duty Proposal

Look at the devs Sony own, look at the games they released before Sony bought them, then look at the games they released after Sony bought them! Then look at Bethesda an Activision!! You see the difference??? Sony buy little known devs, invest an turn them in to masters of their trade. Microsoft are simply throwing their wallet about buying already huge, established devs with multi platform games. There’s a big difference!! Bethesda were making Starfield, a huge, multi platform game. MS buy Bethesda an make Starfield exclusive. Starfield isn’t an Xbox game, MS have done nothing towards Starfield!!

Re: Phil Spencer: Sony Wants To 'Make Xbox Smaller' To Protect PlayStation's Dominance

I think Sony’s problem is MS putting COD on Game Pass. I bought Mod Warfare 2 on release on PS5. Had it been on Game Pass i’d play it on my XSX. People comparing this acquisition to Playstation having exclusive content is dumb!! As ya know MS has far more cash than Sony! Why don’t MS get their own exclusive content or outbid Sony??? As for exclusivity, exclusives are fine. But throwing ya wallet about simply buying already huge, well established, multi platform franchises then making them exclusive is a ***** thing to do!!

Re: FTC Files Lawsuit To Block Microsoft's Takeover Of Activision Blizzard

@Blessed_Koz why are you so angry at Sony??? Microsoft have clearly. Decided they can’t make Xbox compete with Playstation as is. Playstation devs make far better games so Microsoft have tried to take a new approach an simply fling their cash about and buy ip huge, already established devs. Competition is good for the industry. If Microsoft crushed Playstation as you say this would be bad for Xbox. They could release any old ***** an people would have to make do.

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Adamant Call Of Duty Will Remain On PlayStation 'Longer Term'

@Somebody yeah, Phil Spencer said the same. For a few years, Sony said this wasn’t good enough. Then they said a few years after Sony’s Activision contract expires. They’ve definitely back peddled a bit. An fol saying they’d def keep it on PS for the revenue, not true. MS would make tons more money if Bethesda games remained multi platform too. Yet they’re now exclusive to Xbox. Starfield was originally multi platform, not anymore.

@Green-Bandit he didn’t say it originally. At first he said COD will be on Playstation for A FEW more years. Then he said a few years afte PS current contract with Activision. Now he’s saying as long as PS gamers want COD they’ll get COD. Imo the initial plan was to make COD exclusive in 3 or 4 years. He now realises he has a choice, keep COD a multi platform game an secure the Activision deal or lose the Activision deal an Playstation still gets COD. There’s no two ways about it, wat ever happens COD must remain a Playstation game.

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Chimes In On Sony's God Of War Ragnarok Launch

@EliJapan it’s a bit different. Sony bought certain devs, employed certain staff, invested massively in these devs and made them incredible. Microsoft are simply throwing their cash about and buying all ready well established devs. If Microsoft made lets say COD Xbox exclusive, i know they’ve said they won’t do this, but if they did they’ll have had zero input in to the creation of COD. They’ll have simply monopolised an already huge franchise. I do hope the deal goes thro an if it does an COD goes to Game Pass that’s where i’ll play in future. I do think it would be wrong to make it exclusive tho, not everyone can afford 2 current gen consoles.
