PC F.T.C. Sues to Block M$ 69 Billion Acquisition of Activision Blizzard

Well, Diablo 4 and Fallout 5 may not be on the PC after all.

Fallout is not an Activision game

........

and all Fallout games have been on the PC, so even if this was to block the Microsoft / Bethesda merger, it wouldn't prevent the games from being on the PC.

The concern is that the merger would lead to Microsoft preventing games from being played on non-Microsoft systems

Woah...will we never see this on PC?

When I was a kid and found out there was no way to win Pitfall, it was just a matter of collecting as many points as possible in the given time frame, I felt pretty misled by my Indiana Jones fantasy that was going on in my head at the time.

What gives you that impression?

Who creates the game has almost nothing to do with the platforms it is released on.  Any creator can make a PC game.

Most PCs today couldn't handle the graphics.

Erm... It's from before Microsoft acquired Zenimax but Pit Fall is also in Fallout.

i dont think the issue is about games being played on PC or not but the block to stop MS from creating a monopoly again as they were sued decades ago for the same trick.

this is the recent article i seen on CNN news web site a few days ago.

Explain to me how and why Diablo 4 won't be on PC. You got confused with another title?
