| Gamers sue Microsoft over Activision Blizzard deal ...who just happen to be Playstation players* Microsoft has been sued by 10 playstation players over its proposed $68.7 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard. Given the most vocal opposition to the deal has come from Sony, the makers of Playstation it can hardly be seen as an "independent lawsuit" as appears to be being touted by the tech press. There are also some other oddities about the case.* For example, it is not a class action lawsuit and*it names only Microsoft as the defendant in the case, not Activision Blizzard. The 45-page document argues that if the acquisition is allowed to proceed, it would have a lot of negative effects on "the industry" as a whole. These include reduced competition, higher prices, less creativity, decreased output, and Activision games being locked to Microsoft's own platforms. https://fudzilla.com/news/ai/56027-g...-blizzard-deal |
