Most Expensive Video Game Company Acquisitions


The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has filed an official complaint to block the merger of Microsoft and Activision Blizzard King. After reviewing the details, FTC found out that Microsoft planned the acquisition of Activision Blizzard King for $68.7 billion, as announced in January 2022.

 

In an official statement, the FTC claims to "Seek to stop Microsoft from gaining control over a leading independent game studio and using it to harm competition in multiple dynamic and fast-growing gaming markets."

 

Vice chairman and President of Microsoft, Brad Smith released a statement regarding the decision, saying the company had "believed in giving peace a chance" but will not back down from making its case in court. If the FTC's lawsuit is successful, it is unlikely the video gaming world will see a deal this big anytime soon.

Different Bedding Choices for Better Sleep

While changing out one’s bedding isn’t in everyone’s immediate future, it is an inevitability. Eventually things wear down, or life conditions change, and fortunately, there are more options now than ever. Here are just a few examples of the ways in which bedding can vary. 


Bedding material is one of the first things people tend to gravitate towards. The difference between linen, polyester, and silk sheets are admittedly pretty drastic. Silk is light and airy but expensive, linen breaks down but is extremely soft, and polyester is cheap but inefficient. There are options even beyond these though, all having various ups and downs. 


Beyond material there comes threat count, ply, weave, and even staple length. These are all extremely minute criteria but can make a difference in the long term. For example, a high thread count leaves bedding lasting far longer than average. It’s the biggest determinant of durability in one’s bedding. Weave can also help to shape the durability as well as softness of one’s sheets.
