CRINGE.
On both sides, but that being said, I'm not sure what else they're expecting their rival to do??? It's surprising Microsoft even went as far as to do that if we're being real here. Wonder if it's off the table now once the deal(s) are done?
Honestly though, the only people that I have empathy with are the gamers. Both of these companies can fuck right off as far as I'm concerned, and any good will that MS have earned with me the last couple of years vaporized when faced with the proposition that several of my friends in our group are not going to be able play CoD with us unless they get different hardware. That's fucking bullshit. We JUST FINALLY got cross-play the last few years and now this happens. HORSESHITTERY.
I personally think this is a major misstep and hopefully it will get sorted out....but this kinda seems like the dawn of WW3 for console wars, and I don't mean the online squabbling between fans. I mean full-blown "Sega does what Nintendon't" type shit. It might get pretty ugly, folks, and I'm not looking forward to all the petty bullshit that will inevitably occur on both sides that will just result in all of us getting fucked over in some capacity.
Now is the time to speak with our wallets more than ever and just go PC, IMHO. Fuck it, right? Microsoft and Sony have both made it pretty clear that PC is the platform that will get all of their games anyways....and now with Steam Deck we have a handheld option that console players have been wanting since forever. Fuck these clowns.
