The CMA said merging Activision with Microsoft could allow the tech giant to use games to 'damage' competition in the growing market for cloud gaming, which allows consumers to stream games to their devices in a manner similar to Netflix's offering for movies and TV shows.

BRUSSELS, Sept 30 (Reuters) - EU antitrust regulators will decide by Nov.

The driver is understood to have been an accomplished off-road driver who knew the site 'like the back of his hand', with roll-bars fitted to the off-road vehicle said to have prevented an even greater tragedy.

Yu Darvish threw seven strong innings, the Padres hit four homers off Max Scherzer and San Diego cruised to a 7-1 win over the host New York Mets on Friday in the opener of a best-of-three National League wild-card series.

The fifth-seeded Padres will go for the sweep Saturday night behind left-hander Blake Snell. The Mets had yet to officially announce a starter, but it is expected they will send their co-ace -- two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom -- to the mound in the must-win contest.

On PC gaming platform Steam, Cult of the Lamb has seen hundreds of thousands of downloads, and while Wilton can't reveal the exact figures due to Massive Monster's backing by UK-listed Devolver Digital, pre-sales numbers show the game has already recouped its investment costs.

To be honest, it looks just like the land of Link's Awakening...or a dozen other Zelda games. It's bright green, punctuated by clumps of grass, and shown from above. Down the path, Pkv Poker there's a ruined village and some dungeons that need explorin'.

Because Tunic doesn't simply copy the Zelda formula — it complicates it. There are items you pick up, berries and little effigies, that you've never encountered before, in this game or any other. And you're not told what to do with them. Nor, in fact, are you really told much else.

Come to think of it, maybe 'complications' isn't the word.
'Embellishments' might be better. Tunic's world is so beautiful in both its sun-dappled, well, beauty and its clockwork design that it deserves to be described in softer terms. It's like holding a Fabergé egg in your hands.

Figure things out. Perhaps you'll need to consult one of Tunic's most delightful features — an in-game manual, half of it written in cryptic runes, that you literally piece together page by page — or perhaps you won't. However you go about it, the feeling of sheer discovery is tremendous.

Scherzer ran into trouble immediately when Profar blooped a single on the first pitch of the game before Bell hit a two-out homer well into the left field seats.
Grisham hit a solo shot with two outs in the second, after which Scherzer retired seven straight before Ha-Seong Kim singled leading off the fifth.

"The European Commission's review of the deal is progressing in line with the expected regulatory schedule and process, and we remain confident that the acquisition will close in fiscal year 2023," a Microsoft spokesperson said.
