On all counts, the FTC ignores the facts:

1) Taking Call of Duty exclusive would be a disaster for Xbox.
By withholding COD from other platforms, Xbox would torch trust, alienate gamers, and erode much of the value of COD.
And they’d lose billions of dollars.
These commitments totally undermine the FTC’s supposed concerns about harm.

But the FTC has refused to engage on them, other than to accuse Xbox of breaking past promises to the European Commission — an allegation the European Commission itself publicly refuted the next day.
2) The FTC ignores that no game or franchise is enough to make or break a gaming platform. Call of Duty faces intense competition worldwide.

That includes China-based companies’ aggressive expansion in the US and Sony’s war chest of IP across games, movies, TV, and music.
TL;DR:

- This deal benefits consumers and increases competition
- The FTC ignores the facts
- Instead, they’re protecting the world’s biggest gaming cos from more competition from Xbox
- The FTC is blinded by ideology and has lost the plot
- Protect competition, not competitors
Microsoft/Activision-Blizzard are definitely doing the good cop/bad cop routine, Lmao.
Microsoft's basically "FTC is violating the constitution, we don't agree with their assertions, see you in court"
Activision's basically "You're an idiot and here's why"
