It feels like Judge Corley grew tired of the FTC’s questioning of Phil Spencer earlier. Judge Corley cut in when the FTC was asking if Spencer could legally bind Microsoft into keeping Diablo on PlayStation. A Microsoft lawyer objected and Judge Corley said “your point has been made, move along.”
Then later Judge Corley directly cut off the FTC’s questioning of Spencer after the regulator’s lawyer asked if Spencer could make a Call of Duty commitment for bringing the game to a Sony PlayStation cloud service.
“I don’t think that’s it, I’m going to cut off the questioning there,” said Judge Corley.
There was an audible “ooof” from a few members of the audience watching on, MLex reporter Michael Acton, who is in the courtroom, says.
