Xbox will decide based on the math, just like they did with Bethesda. The math is not the same though.

I donât think math is the only dealbreaker here, getting marketshare is more important now.

Itâs going to be a long wait for the definitive answer on CoD.

Jason using a tweet thatâs 99.99% about scrutinizing A/B skating on abuse of power and sexual misconduct to try and dunk on people who said it wouldnât be an anti-trust issue is pretty nasty btw.

Exactly, like no one is saying the deal wonât get scrutinized, with 70 billions dollars and AB history, it will be of course, but it is not about anti-trust or monopoly whatsoever.

I thought PlayStation had âbangersâ and is the reason why people choose PlayStation? So why are people concerned about potentially CoD going exclusive and that harming the competition 
?
Do bear in mind that Nintendo seems to get by just fine without CoD.

I had just left the game industry at this time but still remember all the fanboys celebrating the death of the dreamcast. It was disgusting, I bet alot of those celebrating fanboys are working in the gaming pressâŚ

Sony will continue to enjoy call of duty via warzone dont worry.
Youâre expecting a group of people who either handwave away, or actively cheer on, Sony spending years paying publishers to keep their games off Xbox to understand what hypocrisy is.
This acquisition sure has seen them come out if the woodwork though. The usual dross, plus reinforcements from self-declared platform agnostics and âprofessionalâ gaming journalists. Apparently itâs perfectly acceptable to these people for Sony to make competitive deals within their capabilities, but as soon as MS follows suit they cry foul - practically begging authorities to step in, while simultaneously praying Sony respond in kind with SE/Capcom.
Screw the lot of them.

The funny thing is, it really have no effect on Switch. Ok, not really no effect, but itâs very minor compare to Sony. The fact they want CoD to remain multiplatform tells you everything.

Thank you. People donât have to be insert console here guys just because they donât see a big deal about one thing or agree with some other things.
There is usually more nuance behind someoneâs opinion than that.

But Microsoft does fund them.
You would have thought the won the lottery at the time.
Itâs funny that you mentioned Nintendo. I was just about to write that: if MS makes future CODs exclusive, they will, essentially, become the Western Nintendo. Where you buy the system specifically to play a huge franchise you canât play anywhere else.

I didnât know this. I thought it was mostly Segaâs own fault. I didnât see examples of what kind of FUD Sony would spread in the article. What kind of stuff did they say?
Dreamcast was amazing back in the day, my bro bought a Japanese one so we could play Shenmue and we were just flabbergasted, so damn impressive. And I remember the hype about PS2 and its graphics, but when all was said and done it was DC with super smooth, clean, crisp graphics in DOA and PS2 version was full of jaggies.
