Loud Mouthed Gamers: The latest issue of Official Xbox Magazine is reporting a rumor which states that Activision would buy Volition is THQ goes under.
The legal battle for the acquisition of Activision Blizzard continues, with Microsoft countering one of the FTC's latest moves and the Judge delaying a relevant ruling.
Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.
MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.
Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.
The FTC and the lawyers behind the "Gamers' lawsuit" against Microsoft over the acquisition of Activision Blizzard are denouncing the recent layoffs within the respective legal battles.
The legal battle between Microsoft and the FTC over the Activision Blizzard acquisition continues. The house of Xbox just scored a major point but the FTC is firing back.
Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.
Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."
Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.
Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.
You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.
This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.
they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
Would be a smart move on the part of Activision.Hmm..and gamers don't hate Call of Duty just the ones on web forums do to be honest.
*dun dun dun Another one bites the dust*
That would be horrible, if true. Next Dawn of War and Company of Heroes = FPS, confirmed.
I'm glad I have the option to play on PC where independent devs are still able to thrive...
i prefer them joining activision(even though they'll milk the shit out of their games) over hundreds of people losing their jobs
oh please any company activision has under there belt makes terrible over priced and low quality games
People need money to survive, but it takes a buttload of money to produce these high graphical games that consumers want. Especially on a regular basis.
