That whole post was

But big facts tho. Sony has no other choice but to play nice with Microsoft or else they can Thanos snap everything away from them on the PlayStation.

Off the top of my head Microsoft owns the rights to all these games.

Doom, Skyrim, Call of Duty, Destiny, Halo, Gears of War, WoW, Overwatch, Diablo, Tony Hawk, Minecraft, Killer Instinct, Crash Bandicoot





If I'm Sony, I'm getting on the phone with Sega and Capcom, Konami, and Square Enix on some

If Sony doesn't do this soon, PlayStation is going to be in very big trouble. Cause best believe Microsoft is coming for Japan next.

Some of them, seeing how Sony abandoned Japan from the PS3 era onwards, are leaning towards Nintendo over anything else. Nintendo still has a heavy presence on Japanese gaming charts. Especially when SEGA let Nintendo crowdfund Bayonetta games before.

Man i pray that happens; konami, capcom, sqaure enix under sony would even the playing field all the way through...

Nah, it would mean that the Japanese audiences won't even play it, because Japan again, abandoned anything that ain't Nintendo Switch on the console front.

There’s nothing Sony can buy that can compete with COD in the same space. Even a new IP would take a long time to fill COD’s shoes. Battlefield is EA and they hanging on by a thread right now. MS bout to have the main multiplayer FPS titles on console period. If they make that shyt exclusive if u wanna play a multiplayer fps that ain’t from EA u gonna HAVE to go to MS. Even single player shyt like Doom and Wolfenstein. shyt crazy.

Basically, Sony took a lot of its online infrastructure for granted, and M$ just took their potential food.

Abandoning Japan, as a Japanese 3rd party company, is financial suicide. That 1/3 of the entire gaming world not even seeing your product.
