In an interview with MCV, Activision explain how they believe they can beat Grand Theft Auto V's sales records.During an exclusive interview with MCV Kevin Flynn, a senior manager at Activision, stated that he believed that the Call of Duty franchise would be able to break the sales records set by Grand Theft Auto V in September. He went on to say:
"We look forward to getting the record back before the next GTA title."
Activision also congratulated Rockstar on their success so far. You may remember how a couple of weeks ago we spoke about Grand Theft Auto V broke all the sales records for video games, achieving a massive $1billion of sales in just three days
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.
I know they are a business, but I wish they wasn't so obvious about wanting every penny they can claw at.
COD has been a disappointment for years, and I just couldn't bring myself to buy into it again.
They are not stealing the crown from GTA any time soon.
Success has pretty much ruined COD. They were so successful that it has made them afraid to build an engine to progress the graphics. They have kept the same gameplay for their MP for what 4-5 games now. Im surprised that they are actually using dedicated servers for the X1. Success has done more to hurt COD than it has to help it.
Go home Activision, you're drunk.
Want to beat GTA 5 sales? Stop making the same yearly garbage and go that extra mile for both offline AND online (outside obvious GTA online issues).
