What could the divestiture mean
Breaking News from CNBC’s David Faber: Microsoft has offered to make small divestiture to meet objections of CMA – Sources
That said we got interesting commentary from both the CMA and Microsoft a couple of hours ago indicating the two sides were in conversations essentially to try to restructure the transaction so that would meet the objections of the CMA and therefore go to close and what I have learned is that Microsoft has offered what I'm told is a discrete small divestiture, unclear exactly what that is, that will in fact satisfy the CMA or at least they believe it will satisfy the CMA. You know, we can all speculate about some sort of a licensing deal for the cloud and other things that may occur here but again, a small and discreet divestiture is what I'm hearing, all of which would seem to put this on a path Kelly amazingly enough to actually be closed at $95 a share in cash, the price agreed to when this deal was announced back in January of 2022 despite what were numerous hurdles that were put in its way so we'll see that stock will probably continue to maintain a very close now range to that $95 a cash deal price. And again, we could be in line here for a close as soon as let's call it Monday prior to the expiration of the merger agreement between the two parties.
At least we‘re hopefully getting good cod games again after years
you need to open your eyes son
Bro acting like losing Activision will change anything on PlayStation
Fr There’ll just be a replacement cod. Like there’s going to be other companies who will immediately make a cod killer.
Microsoft fans really think people gonna buy xbox’s now?

i’m being dead serious y’all cannot act like the value of xbox went up unless cod goes exclusive that’s legit the only way that console can be saved

acting like sony were the reason they’re s***
Never realized how bad Activision lineup actually is. They really got nothing going for them besides COD. As long as Capcom doesn't get bought, I don't think I will notice any of these purchases
Tony Hawk and crash bandicoot are right there man

facts lmfao every COD dev team just ain’t s*** at this point

LMAO it's not 2000 bud.
I wouldn’t even really argue Sony people are losing here either
Sure a lot of the more obscure/smaller Acti games will be exclusive but like
COD will be a whoooole lot better on both platforms under Microsoft I bet. Just cause they’ll give them more time to develop and let them experiment a bit more I think
Agreed
Sony doesn’t need COD to be successful
This is a VERY good thing to help Xbox not be such a DISTANT 3rd place lol
