I’m not sure anyone expected them to pull it if this deal goes through anyway. Surely they would lose more money in the long run by limiting the amount of people paying for micro transactions than people buying PlayStations instead of Xbox.

Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

At the end of the day, making money is the most important thing, but it's also a nuke for Microsoft's arsenal if they ever need it.
No no, that isn't how it happened.
Sony agreed to sign a deal with Microsoft. After they repeatedly rejected the deal and attempted to get the acquisition cancelled altogether.
Basically, Sony is accepting defeat..
Classic news media anti-Xbox bias in the headline, lol.
"Two Media and software mega corporations agree to keep making boats full of money."
There, better?
