The next Call of Duty video game—Black Ops 3—will launch on November 6th, Activision has confirmed—a Friday.
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.
In the UK we usually get games Thursdays unless it's a big world wide release and DvD/Blu Ray movies on Friday. Friday isn't a bad idea since people have the weekend to play instead of having to wait till the weekend.
Games in the U.K have always been released on a Friday. Most companies ship the product by Tuesday/Wednesday, normally turns up Thursday/Friday, some companies ship earlier than others but the games themselves are released on a Friday. Unless it's tied into a worldwide and we may get a game on a Tuesday.
Movies are normally Monday's as well as new music however I believe this is being changed but normally films were Monday, unless we're talking Cinema releases which are normally Friday's also, here in the U.K anyway.
They should have just left it as a Tuesday release they are basically delaying it 3 days. It would have been better on nov 3
