Podcasts about xbox activision

The recent gaming news about a Starfield PS5 port along with other big Xbox games coming to PlayStation has many confused about the future of Xbox. When it comes to Xbox exclusive games and Xbox Game Pass, will it be better to just wait and play it on a PlayStation 5 instead? Many are asking, is Xbox going 3rd party? Or claiming that Xbox is dead in light of all of the rumors. So while we wait for the Phil Spencer interview or business meeting, none of this is the Xbox news people were hoping for after the Xbox Activision deal closed.

The Xbox layoffs are starting and will likely develop more in the coming days. This is not the Xbox news folks were looking for in the start of 2024. But the Xbox Activision deal is turning into what any of us said it would, bad for the employee and the consumer. The Xbox Activision layoffs brings 2024 to about half of what 2023 saw in the way of gaming layoffs. But seeing Mike Ybarra leaving Blizzard is a sign that this is more than just removing redundancies. What will happen with big games like Call of Duty Warzone with teams gutted and let go?

Are Xbox games coming to PlayStation and Nintendo? Rumors about Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, and Starfield have fans wondering what the future of Xbox is. Will Xbox Game Pass games still be a steady flow of Xbox exclusive games or is that going to be less common? Will we see a Starfield PS5 release? And some have even claimed that a new Halo was considered for other platforms. This seems like another world, but my previous coverage of the Xbox Activision deal and the Xbox CFO comments on Xbox first party games coming to other platforms very much pointed to this happening.

The latest Phil Spencer interview seems to point to more evolution for the Xbox platform. He refers to Xbox as a community even with respect to PlayStation and Nintendo and other devices. It seems as though the ecosystem evolution of Xbox Game Pass may look more like a video game publisher than we initially thought. The Xbox Activision deal isn't the latest Xbox news but it certainly is changing the way Phil Spencer sees the brand. The recent Famitsu interview goes beyond Call of Duty and sounds like the platform is becoming a publisher.

The latest Xbox news recently broke that we will see Xbox banning third party controllers in an effort to stop unlicensed controllers from being used. With Xbox banning third party accessories certain important accessibility controllers as well as fighting game controllers will stop working. Obviously this is probably aimed at Call of Duty cheaters now that the Xbox Activision deal is complete. With COD cheaters being a huge problem, Xbox may be taking aim them, but it is turning off well known adapters and controllers. Most notably the Brook Wingman XB 2 Converter and the Brook XB Fighting board won't work any longer which means other controllers like he Quadstick FPS game controller will stop working. This change is obviously well intended to stop cheating, but the unintended consequence is blocking legitimate controllers. What should Xbox do?

The Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella, did an interview with MSN about the Xbox Activision deal and how they will be doubling down as a game publisher and game developer. The Xbox Activision Blizzard deal puts Xbox Game Pass and the company into a very strong position, but what does the future look like? With the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S sales showing drops in sales practically ever quarter, will Xbox move away from hard and console focus? As they become more of an ecosystem, what will first party Xbox games look like in the future? The biggest opportunity for growth is mobile gaming and cloud gaming, so will console flagship games even be a priority?

The latest Phil Spencer interview on the Xbox Activision deal for the official Xbox podcast. The episode is called "Phil Spencer on Activision Blizzard King + Xbox" and he spoke about Xbox Game Pass, Call of Duty, and potentially revisiting older franchises. When will see a Call of Duty Game Pass release? Will Xbox Game Pass games see a regular flow or remakes and remasters? Phil spoke very frankly and candidly about it, and it shows the priority of console sales and what we can expect in the future. This is pretty big Xbox news considering the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal just closed.

With the Xbox Activision deal approved many feel and fear this is just the beginning. The Microsoft Activision deal will obviously impact Xbox Game Pass games with titles like Call of Duty and World of Warcraft. But what about Amazon, Google, or Tencent? And now Xbox is without excuse for bad or failed games. It will also be interesting to see people who supported the Xbox Activision Blizzard deal suddenly be against potential deals like Disney buying EA or Embracer Group layoffs likely preparing for their own new acquisitions. The new landscape of gaming and video games is potentially headed to a consolidation battle that won't help gamers.

Looking at PlayStation in 2023 and I have to wonder, what is next after the Xbox Activision deal? Jim Ryan and the PlayStation Showcase 2023 were disappointing for many Sony fans. And if the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal goes through, will Sony acquisitions be the response? The Playstation acquisition rumors are heating up as Sony indicated they are going to increase investment in R&D, acquisitions, and PlayStation live service games. So are they going to buy Square Enix or Ubisoft or smaller studios? Rumors are swirling about FromSoftware as well folks asking for Capcom. What about the PlayStation 6 or the PlayStation 5 Pro? I for one think the PS5 Pro is coming in light of the rumors Reforge Gaming is a live talk show hosted by Lono covering the hottest and newest topics in a variety of gaming news with unmatched interaction, live event coverage, and question and answer segments.

The latest news about the Xbox Activision deal is that the FTC lost their case and request for a preliminary injunction. While they can still appeal, even the CMA is open to discussion as the Microsoft Activision Deal gets closer to success. My previous FTC vs Microsoft live streams have summaries of the FTC Xbox lawsuit if you want them. The recent Xbox news showed that Microsoft wants to spend Sony out of business. The FTC closing arguments discussed Call of Duty along with Jim Ryan but the judge was not convinced. The Xbox Activision Blizzard deal looks to be headed toward successfully closing.

During the Xbox Activision deal hearing with the FTC there were PlayStation leaks that I think point to more timed exclusives. Those who wanted the FTC vs Microsoft live streams had to accept transcripts. The FTC Xbox lawsuit now waits for the judge's decision, but the PlayStation documents that weren't properly redacted showed huge budgets for Horizon Forbidden West and The Last of Us Part 2. The recent Xbox news showed Microsoft had vertical foreclosure strategies modeled. We covered the FTC closing arguments that looked a lot at Call of Duty along with Jim Ryan's statements. The Xbox Activision Blizzard deal may not happen and those who want the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal to close have to wait a bit longer.

The latest development in the Xbox Activision deal is coming from Jim Ryan taking the stand. Those looking for FTC vs Microsoft live streams will have to accept breakdowns and summaries like mine.

The most recent Xbox news is that they want spend Sony out of business through big acquisitions. While Jim Ryan is now not concerned about Call of Duty, his comments are revealing. The Xbox Activision Blizzard deal is facing more scrutiny as Bobby Kotick will take the stand today. If you are cheering for the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal consider all the facts.

The FTC vs Microsoft trial is about halfway through, so this will serve as an update on what has happened so far. There is a Matt Booty email along with a Pete Hines email that is not helping. It is clear that the latest Xbox news is they want to put Sony out of business by spending big money. Even though Jim Ryan doesn't seem concerned about Call of Duty, there is a bigger strategy at play here. The Xbox Activision Blizzard deal likely has a long road ahead of it. Those hoping that the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal goes through have longer to wait.

Some of us want to see Xbox Activision deal blocked by the FTC so the latest news could lead to that. The Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal continues to rumble along and I avoid covering it that often. But between the latest Bobby Kotick interview, the FTC fines Microsoft, the CMA appeal hearing date set, and the suggestion the Xbox games could leave the UK, I need to catch everyone up. Prior to now Jim Ryan, Phil Spencer, and Sony talked about a Call of Duty Xbox exclusive that would hurt the PlayStation 5 and the platform, the real plan is about mobile and cloud gaming. The ABK deal is still far from closing, and Brad Smith thinks the FTC's choice will help to speed things along.

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticThe $69 billion Xbox Activision deal buyout has reportedly been approved by China's regulatory body.According to DealReporter (via SeekingAlpha), China's State Administration for Market Regulation recently gave the deal its unconditional approval in a late-phase review, handing Microsoft and Activision another win on their volatile and uncertain path to closing the acquisition.The deal faced another significant setback last month when UK regulators formally moved to block, but soon after regained some momentum when it was approved by the European Union. Arguably its most significant hurdle will come later this year when the US Federal Trade Commission is set to begin hearings on its lawsuit seeking to stop the buyout due to anti-competition concerns.source: Microsoft's Activision deal has now reportedly been approved by China (yahoo.com)Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Xbox Activision deal approved by the EU is good news for Xbox Game Pass games and fans of the system. When the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal was blocked by the CMA over cloud gaming concerns many thought the EU would follow suit. While Jim Ryan, Phil Spencer, and Sony have focused on a Call of Duty Xbox exclusive that could hurt the PlayStation 5 and future consoles, the real battle has been over mobile and cloud gaming. The ABK deal is far from over, but did the EU make a compelling case? And the CMA has fired back saying they aren't budging.

The Xbox Activision deal blocked by the CMA has me asking, what is the future of Xbox? I will be discussing this with @30nsg in our weekly podcast segment. Before this week the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal seemed good to go, but not now. Jim Ryan, Phil Spencer, and Sony did a lot of discussion about COD and the possibility of a Call of Duty Xbox exclusive. The future of Xbox game pass games may end up very light without the ABK deal.

As the bad news snowballed for Xbox in recent weeks, it felt like fans could at least hang their hat on the Activision deal seemingly trending in the proper direction. Well, that seems to have gone south too. The UK regulatory body known as the CMA has moved to block the merger of Xbox and Activision due to cloud based concerns. With the FTC and CMA collectively against Microsoft, their sliver of hope rests on the impending decision of the EU regulatory body. Xbox certainly wasn't in a position to rest on their laurels and if the worst comes to pass then it's doubly so the case. Beyond the usual doom and gloom, The Dukes peer into this potential reality where the deal is outright canceled. What is Xbox to do if Activision isn't part of their future? Do they go scorched earth on third party deals or seek internal investment? We won't have to wait long to find out as a potential pin in the balloon awaits us ahead of the 2023 summer showcase for Xbox. Plus, a final gutcheck on Redfall before release, a deep look into the truth behind Xbox's financials, many first party studios have multiple games in development, a surprise update on Gears 6, hands-on impressions with the ASUS ROG Ally, and so much more in this jam packed episode of Defining Duke!

The Xbox Activision deal has been blocked by the CMA over cloud gaming concerns. Prior to now the Microsoft Activision Blizzard deal seemed like it was going through after the CMA provisional findings. While Jim Ryan, Phil Spencer, and Sony have focused on COD and the potential of a Call of Duty Xbox exclusive, the real fight has been for mobile and cloud gaming. The future of Xbox game pass games could be very different without the ABK deal.

We haven't heavily discussed the Xbox-Activision deal in months following many of us being fatigued from constantly revising it. Since December, we said it would take something truly noteworthy to move it into our headline and given the current scuttlebutt across the community -- it appears now is that time. The CMA has made its stance clear that Xbox will have to relinquish plenty to get the deal done, but how much is too much for the two seeking to make a deal? With calls for divestiture and even outright relinquishing Call Of Duty, many have hit the panic button for Microsoft. As usual, we run through our same rigamarole of big executive quotes and how the CMA came to such a decision. Beyond that, Xbox has become known for its many experimental titles like Pentiment, Grounded, and Hi-Fi Rush. Unfortunately, titles of that same ilk have been canceled over at one of their marquee first party studios: The Coalition. Furthermore, BioWare seemingly continues to struggle to get its next Dragon Age game out the door, we have smaller updates on Compulsion/Fable, and 2022 GOTY Crossfire X is gone... but at what cost?
