7:08 PManime momo​No

7:08 PMaddictedtochaos​Activision had bought King for 12 Billion.

7:08 PMmatthew wilson​for ms yes, its 24th in the nistory in corpate buyouts

7:09 PMmatthew wilson​a lot of reporting points to all of the sexul harassment stuff that pushed the deal over the edge

7:10 PMaddictedtochaos​Ol’ Bobby Boy is going to be gone.

7:10 PManime momo​Microsoft should buy Disney.

7:11 PMaddictedtochaos​My main hope from all of this is that Microsoft picks one studio (Treyarch or Infinity Ward) and have them be the COD studio. Then allowing all the other developers to make whatever they want.

7:12 PMmatthew wilson​that may be true, but they cant legaly say that even if thats their plan until the deal goes through

7:19 PMaddictedtochaos​If your PC can run it you should check out the Halo games.

7:20 PMaddictedtochaos​For now it will stay on PS due to contracts. After that, who knows?

7:20 PMaddictedtochaos​Yes, both are currently COD support studios.
