This same week one of the most important meetings regarding the future of the purchase of Activision Blizzard took place, since Microsoft and Sony met in Brussels before the European Commission to discuss several of the issues that could dictate the future of the acquisition. Although the most relevant thing took place after the meeting was over, where those from Redmond announced the agreement reached with Nvidia and some information that reinforces their position on this matter.

As we can see, Microsoft had one more comparison prepared, in addition to the one that showed the difference with the market share that both one company and another had, which was favorable for Sony with 80%.

Be that as it may, it seems that Microsoft planned to be more aggressive against PlayStation, although it finally decided to back down, without really knowing what the reason was.
