Its like saying "I have a desire to remain friends" after cheating on your girl.
He's trying to blame Sony for he when takes it away.
Precisely how I read it.
He wants to muscle Gamepass onto Playstation. That's literally all this indicates.
Why are you disappointed.Well, am disappointed if that's the case.
Because it's a live service game, and the updates and maintenance of that game costs money. Money that you might want to dump into something that will line your competitor's pockets and increase their hardware's market share.
When the deal closes they will be.Activision Blizzard isn't going to be a part of Xbox Game Studios.
When the deal closes they will be.
Nah, Minecraft sale apparently had a stipulation that it remain on all other platforms. Notch must have included it into the contract. This deal apparently has no such clause.
But yes, they are going to leverage CoD to get gamepass onto playstation and there is no way Sony can say no. Sony will just have to live with $3 royalties on gamepass subs instead of the $21 digital cut on every $70 CoD copy sold.
Why would it be their 'desire' to keep COD on Playstaion when they own COD?.
It sounds very much like its 'Sony you want it, then Gamepass is here for you'.
Because Sony asked for this with all their exclusive deals.Why?
Statement was definitely written by lawyers. Here is a simplified version if he really was going to keep CoD on playstation without any stipulations.Can this guy ever speak in absolutes? People think Jim Ryan lies all the time when everything this guy says can be taken more than one way at all times.
I am going toconfirmed our intent to honor all existing agreements upon acquisition of Activision Blizzard and our desire tokeep Call of Duty on PlayStation.
It's about the principle.Why are you disappointed.
Does the release of COD on Playstation make your playstation run slower?
Just dont download the game if it irks you so
Because Sony asked for this with all their exclusive deals.
You mean like all the Bethesda titles that turned to shit over night? Like that?I guess call of duty is back to being shiet again amirite guys?
Don't kid yourself. ALL of those games would exist without Sony's money. It's been widely reported that they called everyone looking to buy exclusives. They didn't call people asking them what abandoned or troubled game could they throw money at to help bring back to life.You know right fund a game which probably won't exist without Sony money it's a "bit" different than to buy a publisher and put their famous AAA games exclusively below a paywall service, right?
Son, allowing Call of Duty to participate for profits within the PlayStation empire is the privilege.Sony will have to pay quite well for that privilege and they will gladly do it.
Nah he lies constantly and no one cares.I don't know. Folks are patting him on the back all over Twitter for saying this so the impression is Call of Duty is business as usual for Sony going forward. He is going to pay massively if he reneges on this.
Of course. Stay away from trouble.Also, I read that he has to say these things before the deal is finalized or he could get in trouble for violating anti-trust laws. After the deal goes through, it's his company and he can do whatever he wants. Thats why he had to play coy with Bethesda.
Exclusive deals are garbage when done by the leading team. Now that the underdogs have paid 70 billion bucks, they can finally cash in a win.Exclusive deals have been going on for decades in the console industry and MS has had plenty themselves.
remember when people thought sony should be scared of cd project red lolSon, allowing Call of Duty participate for profits within the PlayStation empire is a privilege.
Microsoft and Activision are already getting paid very well with PlayStation giving them half the userbase for every Call of Duty installment.
Sony is the captain of this ship.
Yeah, it's time for Sony to swallow their pride, and let MS into their walled garden. If they dont, PS gamers lose. I already told you how big I believe Starfield is going to be. In a few years, it will be elder scrolls. If PS gamers lose out on that because Sony couldnt check their ego then that would end up in a PR disaster for sony.I dont believe they are going to strongarm GP for CoD
They already get the benefit of CoD on GP and enticing users to switch to XB
That said, I think it’s in Sonys best interest to allow GP on PlayStation with PS taking a small cut like they do third party games
MS titles and studios are now too big to ignore.
For that matter, I think Sonys GamePass equivalent also should be on XB, but I don’t think Sony has the chops to allocate all the porting resources for something like that. Maybe PS5 games only or something
No, they won't. Just like Bethesda isn't.
Edit: Pretty sure I read that, but could be wrong so if you have information saying otherwise, I'd like to see it.
I’m really curious as why do you believe that?He is referring to the Call of Duty franchise, not specific titles. That's how I read it anyway.
Activision Blizzard isn't going to be a part of Xbox Game Studios.
Well he's definitely referring to Warzone.
If he also means the individual releases I strongly doubt that'll come with Sony retaining marketing rights, exclusive content deals, and probably even getting them Day 1 let alone ever getting them in Spartacus. But still releasing them on PlayStation for $70? That is within realm of possibility for sure.
Nah he lies constantly and no one cares.
His desire is to force Sony to allow GP onto PS5.
Buying publishers and taking stuff away is his leverage in the talks.
And when Sony says no - he'll blame Sony. "I tried."
I’m really curious as why do you believe that?
You buy a company...and remove the biggest source of income its main IP provides? Like...what sense would that make? They aren't stupid. They would never remove Warzone from PlayStation.Because it's a live service game, and the updates and maintenance of that game costs money. Money that you might want to dump into something that will line your competitor's pockets and increase their hardware's market share.
I don't know. Folks are patting him on the back all over Twitter for saying this so the impression is Call of Duty is business as usual for Sony going forward. He is going to pay massively if he reneges on this.
Do you live under a rock? People have always ragged on bethesda quality, we pretending this wasnt a thing now? OkYou mean like all the Bethesda titles that turned to shit over night? Like that?
