PlayStation: Xbox's Call of Duty offer was "inadequate on many levels"

PlayStation calls Xbox Call of Duty offer inadequate

www.gamesindustry.biz

Microsoft has promised to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation for three years beyond the current agreement between Activision and Sony, says PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan.

In a statement provided to GamesIndustry.biz, Ryan says the offer was "inadequate on many levels".

The current deal between Sony and Activision Blizzard around Call of Duty is believed to cover the next three releases, including this year's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

However, Sony says the offer fails to consider the impact on PlayStation gamers.

"I hadn't intended to comment on what I understood to be a private business discussion, but I feel the need to set the record straight because Phil Spencer brought this into the public forum," Ryan stated.

"Microsoft has only offered for Call of Duty to remain on PlayStation for three years after the current agreement between Activision and Sony ends. After almost 20 years of Call of Duty on PlayStation, their proposal was inadequate on many levels and failed to take account of the impact on our gamers. We want to guarantee PlayStation gamers continue to have the highest quality Call of Duty experience, and Microsoft's proposal undermines this principle."

Think they're trying to come to some kind of agreement on matters like COD.

Already own it pal as does Sam I think but cheers anyway.

That’s a decent deal for anyone interested in a great bit of kit.

Oooh, I might have a wee look at that. Best price I've seen in the year or so I've been interested in the Thrustmaster. Could be tempted now.

Really not getting the hype for starfield, based on the gameplay released so far that is. Looks basic as.
