Robert Purchese: ''Activision cast doubt on a 2013 launch for Bungie's hotly anticipated new game Destiny during its annual money meeting last night.''
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.
No way destiny launches on the Xbox360, the 360 is on auto pilot and MS has moved on to the 720!
Destiny will be pushed back, refined, and marketed to move units for the Xbox720!
Also Microsoft may just toss Activision enough cash to once again have Bungie Exclusively making games for Microsoft!
Makes perfectly good business sense seeing how Blizzards next MMO "Titan" is set to launch in 2014/2015 so why have a Bungie's Destiny PC project competing with Blizzards Titan PC Game?
Bungie.....just when you thought you left Microsoft you really didn't!
Makes sense, I have no Idea why they would release destiny and Cod is the same quarter. I imagine destiny will be pushed til May 2014. Its a shame, Having it at the 720s launch could have swayed alot of people next gen purchase IMO.
Prefer it to be a next-gen game tbh. Also, when does it come out for the PS4? I just want a straight answer. The dates have never been set in stone. Why would you pay to have a timed exclusive game? Seems stupid. Can't wait for more news on it in the next few weeks though.
bungie if u didn't sell your soul to activision and go to kickstarters instade i can guarantee to you u will have +10M pledge. by that budget u can develop any kind of games.
