CMA/Activision Chaos | US Chamber Speaks | Xbox Fan Warns Sony (VL728)

The fight between Microsoft's Xbox division and the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has only just begun...and now everyone can tell both sides how they feel.

What will the console warriors do with this new found power? What is the US Chamber and why does it not really represent what many seem to think? And will any scuttling of the Activision deal really lead to Sony regretting it's life choices?

It's a potpourri of pandemonium...in Virtual Legality.
