Among the many, many claims and discoveries flying around in the wake of Microsoft’s ongoing FTC lawsuit over the attempted purchase of Activision Blizzard, one particular quote stands out: PlayStation boss Jim Ryan’s accusation that Xbox Game Pass and other subscription-based services are “value destructive” to video games.
Ryan, speaking in pre-recorded video testimony, also claimed other publishers “unanimously do not like Game Pass” for that reason. When pressed by Microsoft’s lawyer, he added: “I talk to publishers all the time, and this is a very commonly-held view over many years by the publishers.”
Talking to Eurogamer yesterday, Miles Jacobson, studio head of Sports Interactive, the Sega-owned developer of the ever-popular Football Manager series, disagreed with that quite directly.
