Good way to shut down the current controversies surrounding Actibliz - take over and give all the senior staff accelerated earn out leaving space for a mass culture change as 'we are all Microsoft now' - means the lawsuits will be settled and back to business. Smart move.

So I guess the talk of moving xbox away from primarily a competitive multiplayer platform is not too serious then.

Activision I cannot think of any modern game in their library thats any good. They seem to be all about a annual shooter rehash, and pay to win games now.

lol..you..you sure?

Yeah its just one game, I know lots of people who dont play shooters.

Its a big deal if all you play is shooters I guess.

Their other modern games, are pay to win stuff like hearthstone. I dont see starcraft 2 players migrating to xbox, or signing up to game pass as they already own the game. So it seems to be CoD annual releases really.

I do get that CoD is popular though and if you talking about size of player base then yes its big. My comment was more along the lines of the range of games and padding out the game pass catalogue.
