Shots have been exchanged between Microsoft and the FTC in the legal battle for the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, with Sony trying to avoid further involvement.
Epic Games is facing a $1.2 million fine by the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets over "unfair practices" in the Fortnite shop.
It might be cheaper to simply pay the fine. Fighting said fine could cost millions due to court and lawyer fees. Fortnite generates well over a 100 million in each month, so Epic has plenty of cash.
But if they did pay it, then they are basically admitting that they did something they weren’t supposed to be doing. If they fight it, they may win and continue to have a sense of urgency for their micro transactions thus making more money long term.
The OS works, but it barely crawls along on the Nintendo Switch's older ARM chipset.
Yeaaa... no. It's cool to say that you got it running as a bragging right, but this is completely unusable. I like how he hits the screen while trying to type! X'D
Ghosts of Tabor creators Combat Waffle Studios have collaborated with GLYTCH on a new "Skill Issue" flavour. Plus PICO is now supported.
That's not surprising. Of course they're going to reject it. True or not, they're not going to admit if they did cherry pick. Pretty standard response.
What and MS didn't cherry pick either ?
What's MS goal now? They have their acquisition right? Now fuck off
No surprises here.
When this all began, Sony would be foolish not to try to block the acquisition, even if the odds were against them.
Likewise, Microsoft is not going to pass up an opportunity to gain more information, successful or not.
Standard stuff, I reckon. If an attempt is never made, the answer is always "no".
Sony is wise to avoid further disclosure. To them this is a done deal, they reached an agreement with Microsoft for 10 years. It's the ftc alone still pursuing their case but it ain't going anywhere.
