MODERATORS
This isn't a good thing unless you're a Microsoft shareholder. Big companies constantly go back on their word and face zero consequences. It'll be exclusive before the 10 year mark unless the FTC starts trust busting like they used to.
Aren't there already agreements signed? That was part of the case.
Both of these companies (not to mention their combined might) have more than enough money and lawyers to tie any lawsuit up on the courts for years. They could immediately break the agreement and by the time a verdict was reached it wouldn't matter any longer. And even then, it would be a slap on the wrists.
None of that stuff tends to matter in the long run, which is kind of the point.
Naw I want more nearly free games. Quit making proclamations for others.
