I dont see how this hurts Sony for the foreseeable future
It’s going to take literally years to see what this means for Microsoft from a business prospective. Number 1 above all else, MS shareholders now see that 70 billion and they expect it to come back and then some. It’s about profit. Everything will be mutiplat at least until a profit in the billions can be reported back. That’ll take time. The shareholders dont care about these console wars were talking about, they want to see the money and returns.
This is the gaming equivalent of the Fox acquisition by Disney. You wont feel it’s effects for a very long time other than a couple of cool DLCs or “cameos”. The merging of infrastructures is going to be something that has to be planned out and done right.
It's going to hurt a lot because Sony relied on sales or COD on their system. COD bought revenue to their company pockets which could possibly be taken away. That's a big fukking deal.
Best believe Sony having meetings the next couple of days.
