It’s no secret that Sony is making it impossible for Microsoft to block the purchase of Activision Blizzard, and the truth is that it’s so desperate that he didn’t mind displaying blatant hypocrisynor has he been cut off when it comes to saying things that aren’t true or disrespecting a giant like Nintendo.

To jewels of caliber “Microsoft wants to turn Sony into the new Nintendo”, or their efforts to paint PlayStation as an underdog in the console market, are now joining two new “arguments” that the Japanese company launched in the form of torpedoes to try to sink Activision Blizzard’s purchase operation, and the truth is that they are another sign that they don’t know what to do anymore.

First, Sony mentioned the exclusive development of Starfield and Redfall for Xbox Series and Xbox Series S, everyone assumes that this is Microsoft’s real intention. The company wants to indicate that if those from Redmond buy Activision Blizzard, they will do the same as they did with Bethesda and that they will launch exclusive games for their consoles.

Sony is obviously mixing apples and pears. When Microsoft bought Bethesda did not commit do not exclude certain franchises, despite said purchase Death Loop eventually came as a temporary PS5 exclusive. Sony didn’t comment on this in its report, as it apparently completely flips its argument, but we also have to add Both Starfield and Redfall are coming to PCmeaning it won’t be an absolute Xbox exclusive.

Sony’s second argument is directly, are inconsistent with the data provided by the CMA arguing that they don’t think it’s profitable for Microsoft to make Call of Duty exclusive to their consoles. In summary, the Japanese company says that CMA made errors in estimation and data analysis and that it would ultimately be profitable for Microsoft to make Call of Duty exclusive to Xbox. It’s a no-brainer, especially considering a very simple fact: Microsoft would be giving up an estimated base of more than 140 million PlayStation consoles.

just make one an estimate of lost sales revenue and revenue not earned from micropayments on PlayStation consolesto realize that this argument doesn’t make sense either and that the strategic benefits and not paying royalties at the end can’t compensate for the number we would get from what I just told you.
