    Activision Blizzard boss Bobby Kotick also issued a statement: "Our merger will benefit consumers and workers. It will enable competition rather than allow entrenched market leaders to continue to dominate our rapidly growing industry.”

    He says, attempting a merger with an “entrenched market leader.”

    This is awful for consumers.

      While I agree with the sentiment, not sure if Microsoft is a market leader in gaming?

        Among Sony and Nintendo, Microsoft is bringing up the rear in console sales, but they own 20+ game studios, including Bethesda. What is that if not a market leader in gaming?

          I’m not a market wiz but I think owning a bunch has nothing to do with being a market leader. Selling a bunch and being the best selling is what puts you on top.
