Seems increasingly likely that the MS-Activision deal will go through; with the CMA dropping it's console concerns.  

I would imagine with that, Sony will sign the deal for CoD soon.

I am curious to see how Sony follows up.

I just want it to either happen or be blocked. I want the whole ordeal and discourse to end. None of us have the whole picture so none of us should be speculating on what goes on behind closed doors. 

All I know is that even if literally every Call of Duty player migrated exclusively to Xbox and abandoned Playstation (an extreme case that absolutely is not going to happen), the balance would still be in Sony's favor. 

The entirety on my personal stance on the matter is that based on the last 20 years or so (But moreso the last decade) I don't trust Microsoft to capitalize on this, and that I personally feel they should be spending 68 billion dollars to invest in their own IP or teams, not buying  up third party publishers. I don't actively CARE what happens but I don't think they have a great history of cashing in on their potential and thus I just feel this will be a wasted opportunity. They DO need to compete but this just feels like the wrong way to do it.
