Zenimax was private, not public. Helps to avoid a lot of flak. Same with Bungie.

Shareholders meeting for Activision/Blizzard is next week.
I don't see any item regarding the merger extension on the subjects that will be voted, would this not be announced here?
Am I as bad using Ctrl+F as I am using the search function of this forum?

I'm not sure why that would mean they would need to look at the SLC in the console market. It would only make it less of a concern if it wasn't the HP console market not more of a concern.
If anything, if cloud is included as part of the same market it would mean that the PC market isn't separate as a lot of cloud providers use PCs. Which would mean OS concerns come into play. They might be able to use the example that MS keeps giving, Minecraft, against them too to show harm. After the acquisition the game shifted the engine/game towards windows from platform agnostic Java and the recent Minecraft Legends release did not work on other OS. The last thing cloud providers would want is for a game to be unplayable on their platform at release and scrambling to provide a hotfix to their compatibility layer that mimics windows.

What was it Sarah Bond said in her tweet again?
These guys are doing gods work, all of those hateful comments will definitely help.

Sorry for all the americans around here, I wanted to do the classic "Typical 0 IQ americans" joke but I just saw some people of my language insulting the CMA, so I guess being a Microsoft slave/workshipper is something international.

Then he would know that iRobot is one of many and they aren't even ranked #1 in the world.

Well he should buy a roomba to give him a blow job. That's more enjoyable than reading his crap.
Oh wait he won't because he's mad at the CMA.

Talk to your average football fan who’s been following the game every week for the past 40 years and you’ll realise they still know as much about the game as a chimpanzee. Just look at
feynoob
and
nani17
for example.The fact that his coverage is all he can tout, says it all. Anyone can cover a story. I’ve never seen him display any actual insight.

Clearly the CMA is being controlled by Amazon. First they block MS to save Luna and now this.
MasterCornholio

It's most likely that Amazon does things in a way thats acceptable to the CMA.
I wasn't aware that the CMA looked at Amazon Luna though. Always thought they only studied mergers.

One thing I can almost guarantee is that Amazon would never have been condescending or hostile towards the CMA, especially not in public. Microsoft were both from the moment of engagement.
Arrogance is a hell of a drug.

Nah! It’s just CMA is crazy to see no difference here between Xbox and Roomba.
Both are black and collect dust.

there is something seriously wrong with these people…
honestly the fact that Microsoft ‘employs’ them to do this dirty PR work while acting like they’re actually above it all (I’m looking at you Phil) has really just muddied my view of the company and makes me want to stop using as many as their products as possible…
though that probably won’t happen for quite a while (kinda stuck using M365 for work and personal) + I have the Series X for the first-party exclusives

Well there's still the CMA to deal with. Closing without their permission will cause problems for them.

So, pretty much, this thread has evolved into an echo chamber of Sony supporters rooting against Microsoft.
Interesting. Let's see how this unfolds...

Just because you're against industry consolidation, doesn't mean you are a "Sony supporter."
But per usual, some fall into MS social media PR brand war traps.
