      Activision already ruined blizzard and is/was a shit company. Anyone buying their games still is a sucker who loves being ripped off. Nothing of value was lost here.

          What monopoly? M$ revenue + Nintendo revenue = Sony Gaming revenue

          If anything, playing field just got level, as M$ post merger will be about the same size Sony is.
