Yeah, that is just pure insanity. They think they deserve CoD day one on PS+, same as Gamepass, without paying Xbox to compensate them for all of the lost CoD sales from people not buying and playing on PS+ instead? Pure psychopathy. |
What they think, is that they're not going to agree to anything. They don't want the deal going through, so they're perfectly happy to move their demand goalposts as far out as necessary to make sure MS can't ever actually come to an agreement with them.
When you know that certain regulators are prone to being unreasonable, because they themselves are more motivated to make an example of big tech, then why would you - as Sony - eliminate the only outside voice of dissent to this deal?
