    A bit of context why Microsoft’s lawyers are saying this stuff:

    Sony recently expressed concerns about Microsoft’s attempt to buy Activision/Blizzard. Specifically they (Sony) mentioned the fact that Microsoft control’s over popular franchise, such as Call of Duty, could unfairly damage Playstation’s business by making them exclusive to Xbox/Windows.

    …basically it’s their way to say “see? it’s not even convenient for us to make CoD exclusive to us!”. Of course, they will make all Blizzard/Bethesda/whatever popular product exclusive to Microsoft’s platform to assets their monopoly in the gaming industry (I am not saying they are succeeding, they are just trying)
