So Sony got as much developers on board to support the PS1 in it's infancy=Sony made lock up deals?
SONY HAS BEEN BUYING COMPANIES AND LOCKING IN 3RD PARTY EXCLUSIVE DEALS SINCE ITS START.

Its literally how they secured the bag.

if you don't get that then I don't know what to tell you.


Complaining about MS using it's money when that's literally how Sony got in the game.... Throwing around their money.

I'm not talking about Activision, though. Still just asking why someone taking solely about they did with Bethesda can't be an actual topic of discussion. People had the same question before Microsoft even announced the Activision deal.

Not defensive, but you out here calling people dumb and typing in all caps over a single question. :mjlol:
In your first post your were talking about activision. Now you wanna play dumb :smh:

Make that topic if you wanna talk about it.

It don’t have anything to do with the activision deal which you tried to compare it to.

Stop with the dumb shyt. :stopitslime:

The fact that you keep trying to equalize some weak point about Sony "buying" companies that were already publishing games on Sony platforms and companies that either made little to no games elsewhere to MSFT buying out Zenimax/Bethesda and now Activision as the same thing is hilarious but then again you're a deranged fanboy who would NEVER admit anything negative or even perceived negative about that company.

Also, no one is "complaining" about it. They're just pointing out the differences which you put your finger in your ear to ignore because it isn't implicit dikk riding like you typically do.

And this is the disconnect y’all keep making.

In this world of righteous, organic growth then Microsoft should have purchased bethesda in 2003 when they had only published a game on xbox. Or they shoulda bought Bioware and Respawn before EA. Remember the first COD games were exclsuive to xbox. I guess they should have purchased Activision in 2003. Or maybe they shoulda bought insomniac before sony did?

Then it would have been all righteous and organic right?

no, the disconnect is you don’t know or don’t understand the difference between purchasing a license for a specific game vs buying a whole damn publisher.

That’s cause you wanna chose where the cutoff line is. Fact is, content is purchased and made exclsuive every day B.

Spider-man is one of the most successful and popular IP EVER known to man. It is a HUGE deal that Sony has locked that IP up to where you will only ever be able to access that character on their hardware.

But stuff like that is totally fine to y’all even encouraged. But microsoft tries to make a big move and y’all all in your feelings.

At the end of the day it’s business, and both are doing what they think is the best for their business:manny:

No, to compare this to the activision purchase would be akin to Sony purchasing Marvel not just Spider-Man

I’m talking about the studios Sony has purchased.

So you would be ok if microsoft just purchased COD to keep it off playstation? Or if they just purchased the Activision owned studios one by one and kept their games off playstation??

But you have a problem with microsoft buying Activision and making their games available to literally EVERYBODY

:mindblown:

That shyt don’t make any kind of logical sense which is why it said y’all “concern” is just console wars nonsense.

If you want COD games to be widely available with a stable business plan going forward you would be BEGGING for this deal to go through. But that ain’t what you want. You just want Sony to “win” so you twist your brain into all theses fake ass “concerns” that Sony themselves or anyone else in the market doesn’t even have.
