The best comments

Already for this should not be sold, but to erase all traces of existence. As if Alien: Blackout was not enough, I could not stand the castamized pink alien with rhinestones and sparkles.

They will not do it, they already had to make multiple concessions so that the US antimonopoly service approves the acquisition of Fox.

… if they just do not arrange a coup d’etat and seize all power in the States.

“As Bloomberg recalls, in February 2019, Aiger again said: the best strategy for Disney is to provide licenses to third-party developers, and not engage in publishing house”

Yes, only let’s really “developers”, and not one developer who chopped exclusive rights and sits for five years with his finger.

I did not know that they closed their unit at 16. Eh, I hoped for Split Second. The suitable arcade was in due time

As far as I remember, they left the Foxes all the news channels (the largest in the USA), and also forced them to sell most of the sports content belonging to the Foxes. And this is about 36 regional channels and the share in ESPN (the largest American sports channel).

I understand this badly, but it is not profitable for Disney to have playing studios or units of companies at hand, because it is beneficial for them in terms of developing games in a license, the same ZV, for example, or when creating their own cartoons, if someone understands this, let them explain more details

I would look at what they will succeed if it turns out. I remember games aliens vs. Predator, the living multiplayer of which I never found. I would have trapped other living ceiling players when playing a stranger in my legendary skine of Thomas Paravozika.

It is very bad when, in the hands of a dude, a sawn cartoon is a stranger or something similar.Although, to tell the truth, Fox did not work out very

And what did you not like Blackout?
Solid mobile game, at least a little dilutes that cloud of hovna that is now)
