In the leaked Halo Infinite Forge build, @DeathTempler created Operation Metro from Battlefield 4. It couldn’t be transferred over to Forge, so he remade it. What a boss!

The facts show this deal benefits gamers, workers, and global competition.
— Lulu Cheng Meservey (@lulumeservey) December 23, 2022
But the FTC is ignoring facts, along with precedent and business reality. Their case rests on the unfounded fear that Microsoft will make Call of Duty exclusive to Xbox.
3 reasons that makes no sense:
On all counts, the FTC ignores the facts:
— Lulu Cheng Meservey (@lulumeservey) December 23, 2022
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.
— Lulu Cheng Meservey (@lulumeservey) December 23, 2022
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.
— Lulu Cheng Meservey (@lulumeservey) December 23, 2022
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:
— Lulu Cheng Meservey (@lulumeservey) December 23, 2022
- 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" 
Jeff Grubb on the XboxEra podcast is saying that Xbox will have a showcase in Q1 and one of the games that will be announced is a "Pentiment level" game from Xbox 1st party studios, he is pretty sure that it is Tango Gameworks.

| Ryuu96 said: It'd be funny if CMA/EC do approve it, but FTC opts to take Microsoft to court and as a result, FTC comes out of it as the only major regulatory body without a concession agreement, it won't matter to us since any concession Microsoft agrees to with a major regulatory body would be enforced worldwide but a bit of a PR blackeye to FTC...CMA and EC got a concession and FTC got...nothing. |
Just curious, MS can still end up closing the deal even without the FTC, right? Like say China, UK, and European Union have all approved the deal but the FTC case is still ongoing?

That's neat. My ideal Xbox year is a varied tempo between 2020's cluster of indie/middle-market titles and big-budget stuff scattered throughout the year.
