I’m just wondering why the FTC is shilling for Playstation, trying so hard to protect a company based in Japan

Not sure who Charlotte Slaiman is but she clearly lacks an understanding of the video games industry because this deal is not disappointing for consumers but only to Sony it is.

The FTC focused on protecting sony not the consumers. The judge reminded the ftc lawyers several times throughout the trial that this is about protecting consumers not sony.

Tell me how this protects consumers in any way shape or form?

As a lifelong gamer, it’s clear to me that many of the people in charge of regulations don’t understand the video game industry. The only company that benefits from this deal not going through is Sony. This is a win for gamers and it’s clear that many of the people talking about this I have a grudge against tech companies.

@ReyCo47 A bunch of great games are coming to game pass, and Sony won’t be allowed to pay Activision for exclusive content for Call of Duty®.

Sony paying developers to not provide content in their competitors version of the game is anti-consumer. They have done it repeatedly with Call of Duty.

Yet this broad in the yellow won’t mention that. She comes off like a Sony defender. This deal is best for all consumers unless you worship Sony’s plastic box.

If Game Pass + Xcloud was allowed on every platform/ecosystem none of these concerns exist. That is why Netflix, Disney + and Prime Video are on every device possible. This deal is going to accelerate that possible future for the games industry.

Nonsense ❗️Sony has a monopoly on the console market in N.A., Europe, Asia, etc. People are making decisions without knowing the market.

How is this a “disappointing result for consumers”??? Microsoft has literally gone out of their way to say that they want to make Activision games more accessible to consumers via their services like Gamepass and other services, including PS+. This gives us options on paying the game for ways that doesn’t immediately result in us forking over $70-$100 each time a game like Call of Duty is dropped.
Are you saying that it would be in our own best interests not to save money?

Is painfully obvious this one of those absolutely nothing about the video game industry. She is simply a person with an ideological agenda. Trying to get lost changed through FTC action. The FTC is part of the executive branch. Their job is to enforce laws, not create them. They don’t seem to understand that
