The deal has already closed. I wish them luck.

It's not fully "closed," no matter what Microsoft claims. Its been approved by a lower court judge, and the FTC are currently appealing that judgement.

Fighting the merger in court 3 separate times sure is different than "letting Microsoft buy Activision" though, isn't it?
