PlayStation CEO: Call Of Duty Offer On PlayStation By Xbox Not Administratively At Many Levels

JAKARTA - Microsoft has pledged to keep Call Of Duty to PlayStation, outside of an agreement between Sony and Activision Blizzard. In a statement made to Games Industry.biz, Ryan said the offer was "insufficient at many levels."

The disagreement between the two companies was reportedly due to Microsoft's offer to buy Activision Blizzard in a nearly 69 billion-dollar deal.

Last week, Xbox stated that the company had provided an agreement signed to Sony to guarantee Call of Duty on PlayStation.

Call of Duty on PlayStation will come with features and content parrying, at least for a few more years beyond Sony's existing contract with Activision.

The current deal between Sony and Activision Blizzard surrounding Call of Duty is believed to include the next three releases, including Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

But unfortunately, PlayStation CEO Jim Ryan said that the offer failed to consider its impact on PlayStation gamers.

"Microsoft only offers Call of Duty to stay on the PlayStation for three years after the current agreement between Activision and Sony ends. After nearly 20 years of Call of Duty on PlayStation, their proposals are inadequate at many levels and fail to take into account the impact on our gamers," he said.

Ryan said that the company wants to guarantee gamers PlayStation will continue to have the highest quality Call of Duty experience, and according to him, proposals from Microsoft will undermine Sony principles.
