IIRC, Japan is more protective of its companies being acquired by outsiders. I think T2 (and GTA) is the next target after the ActiBlizz acquisition settles for a few years.

I'm thinking M$ will have hell getting another large acquisition through with this news.


I fully expect them to start buying up midsized publishers just for gamepass content. Maybe picking the bones of companies that are affected by the embracer debacle.

Yeah he did an amazing job closing the gap that Sony made with the Ps4.

After 11 quarters on the market :
Wii: 52.62 million
PS4: 43.60 million
PS5: 41.70 million
NSW: 41.67 million
PS2: 41.56 million
PS3 : 23.80 million
XB1 : ~23.3 million (estimated)
XSX+S : 21.10 million
360 : 20.30 million
PS1 : ~17.5 million
Wii U : 10.01 million


That 20.3 million install base gap lead that the Ps4 had over the Xb1 after 11 quarters on the market has now drastically shrunk down to 20.6m after spending a small sum of 77 billion dollars on studios. It's also much more impressive than the 360 being 3.5m behind the Ps3.

What a genius!

imagine a handheld dreamcast 2 that competes with switch :wow:

nintendo needs competition in that space

Nah, more like Dreamcast 2 competes with PS3, Xbox 360 era. But Sega Gear 2 competes with Nintendo DS

I had to stop playing with them. I had fun trolling when Starfield dropped for shyts and giggles, but they’re not even making that shyt fun. They can’t even tell the difference between revenue and profit :what:



BIG CAP!!!

The real reason y’all not having fun is cuz no one taking the bait and they busy actually playing the game and enjoying it while Sony Stan’s are twiddling their fingers and talking to themselves all lonely over there :mjlol:
