    I think the misconception here is that Microsoft would STAY pro-consumer after acquiring everything under the sun. Companies are forced to be pro-consumer when there is actual competition, and the opposite is almost always true without regulation.

      You are probably right. Remember xBox’s past shenanigans. Its not even healthy to rely on valve to be benevolent forever let alone Microsoft. To bad Activision has to be terrible too.
