A Swedish state-run pension fund sued Activision Blizzard Inc. and Microsoft Corp., claiming their planned $69 billion merger was rigged to exploit the beleaguered gaming giant’s sexual harassment crisis and protect its CEO.
The Pokemon Company had retail sales worth of 10.8 billion US Dollars in the year 2023, based on the latest report.
that merch tho.
ridiculous the numbers they pull in, which makes it even worse when i think about the low budget broken games they make. or have made recently
Right before the full reveal of Warframe 1999 at TennoCon, we chatted with Ben Starr about the responsibility of stepping into such a huge franchise.
Parcae’s Fate Studio-developed open-world action game Unending Dawn has joined Sony Interactive Entertainment‘s China Hero Project incubation program, the companies announce. As previously announced, it will be available PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android.
"Microsoft deliberately used the harassment scandal and its commercial advantage over Activision to offer Kotick a way to save his own skin. The corporation colluded with Kotick and the board to help them avoid the personal and professional consequences of this scandal."
This is getting very very ugly for Phil and Kotick. This "deal" has many wrong things and now we are talking about "criminal implications"
I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft drops the deal amidst all these scandals and corruption. It could even cost Phil his career.
Man this deal could potentially be canned so at this rate.
What's more concerning is Phil willing to shelter Bobby from any consequences of sexual harassment. Likely using it as leverage in the deal. These people are f#@ked in the head if that's the case, which seems like it is, based on the fact that Bobby is still there.
Can we stop talking about this!😐😐
oh dear this is getting very ugly.
