A federal judge has recently dismissed a lawsuit brought against Microsoft by gamers who alleged the company had breached its promises regarding the sale of Activision. The lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, alleged that Microsoft had promised gamers that it would not sell Activision to another company and then proceeded to do just that.

The lawsuit was brought by a group of gamers who argued that Microsoft had made a promise to them that it would not sell Activision, and that they had relied on this promise when they purchased the game. The gamers argued that Microsoft had breached its promise when it sold Activision to Vivendi Universal Games in 2007.

The judge dismissed the lawsuit, ruling that the gamers had failed to show that Microsoft had made any promises regarding the sale of Activision. The judge noted that the gamers had not provided any evidence that Microsoft had made any promises about the sale of Activision, and that the gamers had failed to show any reliance on such promises.

The judge also ruled that the gamers had failed to show any damages resulting from Microsoft’s alleged breach of promise. The judge noted that the gamers had not shown any evidence of how they were harmed by Microsoft’s sale of Activision.

The judge’s ruling is a setback for gamers who felt that Microsoft had broken its promises regarding the sale of Activision. However, this ruling does not mean that Microsoft is off the hook for any potential breach of promise. If gamers can provide evidence that Microsoft did make a promise regarding the sale of Activision and that they relied on this promise, then they may still be able to pursue a claim against Microsoft.

In any case, this ruling serves as a reminder to gamers that they should be wary of relying on promises made by companies when making purchases. Companies can change their minds and break their promises, and gamers should be aware of this before making any purchases.
