You can’t have monopoly on anime - only on RPG and Call of Duty /s

Well I’m sure MS could point to that if they FTC wants to go down the subscription service issue with game pass.

Yeah, unlike PS+ or Amazon Prime, Microsoft had to build Game Pass subscribers from the ground up, while other guys just used already existing base to get the perks. And who is competiing fairly here? :joy:

Looks like that Game Pass perk of mine is about to be put into good use.

Irony…

That’s not the issue, buying other subscription services and taking them off the table and then consolidating them into one mega service could make it almost impossible for new players to jump in.

Did Sony offer Funimation as a part of PS+ perks?

I don’t recall. I think it was only done in that test with PS Plus bundle or something.

In other monopoly news /s

This news pleases me, one subscription down

After hearing so much about Lina Khan, and she literally wrote about this sort of thing, I am expecting at least some sort of investigation or comment any day now :man_shrugging:.

In all seriousness, I can only assume the Microsoft lawyers are celebrating a bit for making their job slightly easier.

What? Matt left Capcom?

Really weird.

You’re not wrong.

But I gotta say I hope CR has this for my country too, the more the better.

We sadly never got VRV here and we’re stuck with a CR app on Xbox that at times works like dogwater.
