Bacon Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 If Microsoft wanted the good will of the people they'll kick him out. WoW players would rejoice at least. Good will doesn't mean shit when it comes to money tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPDunks4 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I had to legit look at the Xbox Twitter to make sure it wasn't a parody account. Absolutely insane. No way they make CoD, Overwatch, and other big multiplayer games exclusive though. Or at least I'd hope not. I haven't read any articles to expand on the deal though, did they mention anything regarding any of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this deal closes, they won't make them exclusive, but they probably will remove future iterations from Playstation platforms. They will never comment on future products, until they are announced.

Spork3245 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Microsoft just won this gen. Sony probably will have the better games overall, but MSFT just won if COD is now an Xbox/PC exclusive and included on GamePass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
