You are missing the point. They said they can't tell what the effect of a partial foreclosure can have in a shift on the market. It already exists, so you can see the shift.

Exclusivity of some content in COD is not the only reason why Sony and Microsoft have their respective positions in the market. It's just a part of that puzzle, not the whole puzzle.

Oh no. This is the new 2021 Metacritic Publisher of the Year, isn't it?

She keeps giving him hints about what she cares about, he's not taking them.

She keeps teeing him up, he doesn't take the shots.

This is a massacre.

I could argue the case against this dumbass merger better and I'm just a retard with internet access.

 

[Nydius]

More importantly, how can I also be this incompetent and get paid?

That's the federal government for you.

There's a reason most people who start in public sector jobs jump to the private sector as soon as they have the resume to do so.

This is how OJ Simpson got off too, the prosecutors were simply incompetent and OJ's high priced defense lawyers ran circles around them

Sony now has Secret Sauce in thier consoles- Confirmed.

 

[adamsapple]

So you would give your DIRECT competitor your specs and console so they can guess the price and compete against you?

Common dude.

they've been shit but they're right that it affects consumers.

I don't believe seeing a dev kit will give anyone an accurate idea of pricing.

It wouldn't matter much either, MS was hasty to remove Kinect and drop XBO's price $100 after the console launched.

 

[DeaDPo0L84]

They have twice as many players due to the quality of exclusives which by proxy reinforces the consumer to spend more money on said platform, like CoD. By removing one of if not the largest 3rd party game releases every single year and making it exclusive to ANY console, it's removing a huge revenue stream from everyone else.

What an absolute slaughter. Dear lord.

This is Beth Wilkonson right? Lol she's regurgitating the MS marketing bullet points xD.

 

[DrFigs]

Oh my goodness, the game was already on ps4 when MS bought Minecraft. Of course it didn't shift the market towards xbox.

As MS has said the studios remain independent- Sony and MS could clearly have NDA's between these studios.

i just provided a remedy.

It's so bad that the Microsoft lawyer doesn't even need to do anything.

The best thing they can do right now is to just shut the fuck up and let this guy roast himself.

lol It's on my fucking microwave. You don't shift a market that way. You do it by making it exclusive. You know, the way Phil wants to AS DISCOVERED IN THIS FUCKING CASE!

If that is BS, then so is the BS this trial is trying to do.

This is all a bunch of woulda, coulda, shoulda.

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

The judge seems more into the FTC's answers on the cloud SLC concerns.

The FTC should've at least tied in MS's cloud and services advantages to leverage console SLC strategies from the get-go, and then show how that would have affected customers of Sony platforms in ways outside of Sony's control.

 

[Not_A-Cop_Maybe]

It took this fucking clown 1 hour to finally make the case. Jesus Christ.

They're doing all 3 angles so they went through them 1 by 1.

Next will probably be cloud as well.

Why doesn't Microsoft let the flowers bloom?

Microsoft closing arguments happen yet or just the FTC?
