Jim Ryan says you should "expect more acquisitions" from PlayStation

[winb83]

Thanks microsoft, for pushing the industry into this because they couldn’t make more than 3 successful IP of their own

It's funny Embracer Group has what like over 100 studios they bought up and you don't mention them. Tencent has been buying up studios left and right, no mention. Amazon has started buying a few studios no mention. This is all Microsoft's fault. This wasn't the way the industry was going anyway. Sony acquires studios and it's organic growth and home grown projects. Microsoft acquires studios and it's the death of the industry.

all people have been saying for the last two weeks is "SONY NEEDS TO RESPOND "

At the right price they will, the hell you on?

Japanese company would rather be acquired by other Japanese company's. You hardly hear companies being b

A lot of smoke around this

Capcom would be a good acquisition especially since Sony owns evo. Perfect way to usher in Street fighter 6 and another Rival Schools.

[Doctor Wily]

sony buying konami would actually be good for society

Anybody buying Konami would be good for fukks sake

 

[Grand Conde]

Konami when.

Nobody is buying Konami, they have many many businesses that nobody wants to be straddled with.

 

[Grand Conde]

Not only that but sony have the licensing rights for Metal Gear Solid movie, I’m sure they want a nice game tie-in

Konami are already making these games on their own.

I'm predicting CDPR next
