    Monopol at the finest… Careful guys when Microsoft grabs something it goes bankruptcy and goes downhill. Look at mixer skype and other company that Microsoft f**ked up. Even steve jobs stated that Microsoft shouldn’t be trusted…

      No Activision means no CoD mobile. No Blizzard means no Diablo immortal and Hearthstone.

    Tell me how many 1st party AAA games have come under Phil’s watch? Anyone who says “Great games don’t sell systems” has no clue what we want

      They’ve been saying mobile since the beginning of this merger actually. Though I don’t believe it’s the main reason like they claim and is more of an added bonus.

    Then they should buy King and leave Activision Blizzard. He isn’t telling the truth. Just like Starfield he intends to take away games from PlayStation and FANG group competitors.

      Why on earth would Activision-Blizzard sell off their cash cow?

    Can someone ask Phil why is there not a Digital Series X. What is the point for a $349 black SS with no performance improvements?
