Retailer puts warning notice on ps5s: ‘microsoft has bought activision!’
...
A French retailer has allegedly been spotted putting a warning on its PlayStation 5 section, telling potential customers that they may want to reconsider their purchase due to Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
As pictured by Twitter user HazzadorGamin, French supermarket chain Cora is claimed to have placed the notice on its shelves, which reads: “Notice to gamers, Microsoft has bought Activision! Choose your machine carefully (Call of Duty)”.
Cora has more than 60 stores in France, and 20 more in Romania, Belgium and Luxembourg.
If the image is accurate, while it’s not clear if the Cora notice is widespread, it could represent another potential example of the wide-reaching influence of the games industry’s biggest-ever buyout.

maybe not this gen... but next one gonna be scary for PS if they dont have a Halo caliber shooter to attract that fanbase...
If you think the PS will be able to compete with one niche 25hrs. single player game per year just lol no matter how many fanboys you find on the internet... semi-casual market in real life is way bigger... and that seems to be going to MS soon.

Imagine spending almost 100 billion and still losing to Playstation.
A mediocre shooter like COD won't change anything Xcels. You will lose again like you do every gen.

Still I dont like much of the exclusives MS offer.. but the only good thing is this might pull Sony out of its comfort zone and we might get interesting new IPs... IMO the only thing PS needs is a solid online shooter game, everything else they have covered... but somehow their attempts have been just average.. neither Resistance or Killzone are on the level of their other exclusives.

Overall as much as I want Nintendo to reclaim its crown I think Xbox will be the winner this gen unless switch goes next gen during Sony Ps5 and Microsoft’s xsx mid gen upgrade.

It doesn't need to be so black and white. I think it's obvious this won't be the disaster the x1 generation was with hardly any great games or only their existing IP's.
I hate the whole "only a winner and the rest are losers" thing like this is some sports event, but the Switch is outpacing the PS4, just fyi.
Just like the wii outselling ps3 doesn't make the ps3 irrelevant, unless you are just super invested in who sells more plastic boxes.

Does any of the **** in this thread apply to casual gamers like myself or does it only apply to l33t gamers that piss in mountain dew bottles so they don't miss the next raid?
I have a ps5 and haven't had any issues thus far. So far there haven't been any games that I like that are xbox exclusive. There are a fair amount of free games with PS+ etc...
What's the complaint? Lack of new IP's? Is there a hardware issue I'm unaware of?

If you care about people who cream themselves over a handwritten note in a random Euro supermarket and believe that buying console A instead of console B will make you lactate soy milk from your soy tits while also developing a strange urge to transition into a female you tranny****g0tsoycuckwhatever, then yes, you should be worried.
In any other case you're golden.

It probably won't be finalized until late this year or first half of next year. I believe June 2022 is the stated "latest" it will happen.
