The Activision Blizzard (King) acquisition has finally happened, and while I know it's a whole team responsible, there's only one Xbox leader writing these blog posts in the first person.

Honest to god Kyle, I don’t think there is a better weekly commentary on the games industry than Delayed Input. I really don’t. You’ve been absolutely crushing it lately. L&R

Thank you Kyle for that opening. I had to play it for my 3 year old on the way to daycare about 30 times. And of course each time was funnier than the last. She just wanted to say “silly space monster”

Each week feels like the best Delayed Input and this episode is no exception. Love the look at Phil Spencer, a man who reads enough KZbin comments to know, at some level, that making a dramatic montage of game cutscenes to celebrate your company’s continuing warpath of acquisitions may be kinda gross, but at the same time is still charmed enough by a nearly decade-old CtrlAltDelete comic to let that bit of restraint slip.

"Microsoft the corporation ingesting one of the largest publishers of video games is bad" - Why? I mean, Actvision Blizzard was shooting themselves on the foot for the past 4 years or so and I don't think they would change their ways, so now at the very least they have to answer to Microsoft, not that I think Microsoft is a spectacular company, but who knows, maybe something will change. Maybe, just maybe, Activison Blizzard will be better, and if not, well, who cares they were being trash either way.

God, I forgot about the whole "let's make Xbox a multimedia platform" era. People don't buy video game consoles for multimedia consumption. Why? Because basically every TV you can buy nowadays has shit like Netflix and KZbin built into it. Or if it doesn't you can buy a Chromecast for like $30 and use your phone. You don't need an expensive console. People only buy consoles to play games. I know, logically, that wasn't as painfully obvious in 2012 or whenever Xbox One came out, but it seems so stupid now. *note... put "Xbox One came out a decade ago" on the "you're getting old" bingo card...

@goranisacson2502 11 ай бұрын

The worst part about that whole era flopping is that there were SOME good ideas in there, like giving those who bought digital games the ability to actually SELL those digital games! They actually planned to let the all-digital future come with the option to re-sell the "license" of their purchase to someone else, meaning that even if we entered the digital age we'd at least we'd have some options on how to acquire games besides paying /O USD at launch. Now though, I feel like unless we somehow get governments to make laws about it that ship has well and truly sailed, all because they just HAD to rush the all-digital turnover and poisoned the well so bad they had to throw out the babies with the bathwater.

People aren’t eating enough crow about the Microsoft acquisition. I don’t care about MS in any fanboy way, but I heard SO many journalists talking out their butt about how “certain” it was about not going through once the EU filed their objection which “couldn’t be overturned”. I’m just annoyed at how many people spent time talking about something they didn’t understand and had no business talking about but still speaking like experts.

@JamesHulltheFabulousJ 11 ай бұрын

Honestly, if the name reflected revenue per division, it would be: Activision King Blizzard, since income from King makes up twice as much as that of Blizzard. King may be invisible to us gamers in the console/PC space, but I'll bet Activision (and Microsoft of course), are paying attention to those numbers

Sometimes buying games companies is like the heisenberg uncertainty principle, just by purchasing them, you change them and they are no longer the thing you wanted to buy. Time will tell, but there are always new companies that will come out of nowhere and be the next big thing.
