Any concessions from Microsoft would no doubt be the same or at least similar to what it’s reportedly offering in Europe. In order to receive approval, it’s apparently willing to make a formal commitment to keep Call Of Duty (one of the biggest sticking points about the entire ordeal) available on PlayStation for another 10 years.

Hopefully Sony has that checkbook ready for a worst case scenario.

Because if this deal goes through they will need to throw an insane amount of money around to try and offset that loss. These publishers are heartless too so you already know Square, Capcom, Ubisoft etc. are waiting to tax them for content.
its real cute Sony stans think Sony got money for all these imaginary acquisitions :mjlol:

Good hopefully Sony brings back SOCOM or at the very least go back to dropping games like they did in the Ps2 era. They seem caught up in the big western single player games.

Drop those jrpgs that are fun, essentially to compete do what got you the fanbase


I see this as a positive, I could careless what corporation has the most studios, this is should make for good competition. Key word being “should”
Yeah Sony doesn't want to have to do that though. They've gotten fat and lazy and stans haven't given them any reason to not change it up or try something different.

I would live if Sony put the battery back in on the JRPG genre bring back SOCOM as well, but it won't happen because that requires work.

What has Xbox leadership done in the last decade plus? Playstation has had MULTIPLE game of the year winners while the last one that did anything on Xbox was during the EARLY 360 era. :mjlol:

Call Of Duty gonna be exclusive next generation. Microsoft dumb as fukk if they don’t market the next gen Xbox as a COD exclusive console. Even if they do that shyt for a year it’ll definitely make nikkas buy the Xbox Series Xbox One X 3000 over the PS6.

GGs Microsoft with that unlimited money hack :wow:
