Sega, IO Interactive, Bungie & more were acquisition targets for Microsoft in 2021 (emails leaked claiming to ‘spend’ Sony out of business)

Bullshyt MS had a TON of studios they was just sitting on BEFORE they even brought zenimax... they did this to cripple sony... they could have spent their own money CREATING games with the companies they already own... this is what we've been saying...

EDIT:

They had rare 343 and the others before the zenimax deal and couldnt make a mega hit????

Rare has a megahit, and you just saw what the rest of them are doing at the xbox event. Games like Clockwork Revolution, Fable, Avowed are the first xbox games from the studios they purchased. Games take time to make, what did you think they were doing??

lol doesn’t seem like Bethesda are too happy aobut being told their make their games exclusive

Hahaha they know games like Hifi Rush would sell like hot cakes on PS5 and Switch

This is why the ABK deal needs to be blocked. They already bought one publisher (Zenimax) less than 2 years ago , and now are trying to buy another.

if it isn't blocked, then Microsoft will keep buying publishers and spend their way into dominance ( which is how they run their business in other areas as well)

Who is in dominance now?

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Microsoft already bought their dominance into the pc market. The last thing anyone should want is them buying their way into dominance into another market

I’m glad regulators are fighting back. Microsofts own game studios are still in a mess, they can’t be trusted to carry the industry

Sony is dominating right now because they bought all the publishers...

My bad, i thought you could read

 

[CarltonJunior]

Why is all this information being discussed in traceable emails and not phone calls or in person is confusing to me.

Not just M$, but all companies/nikkas doing dirt. It's like people never learn from those before them

My bad i knew you was a retard...

EDIT: like i said xbox aint shyt without bethesda... all those studios and they just NOW making games...

 

[Khalil's_Black_Excellence]

Why try to whittle the list down so much by making arbitrary requirements? Who the hell you think you are?

This bearaR like "Give me the best Sony AAA games that are 35+ hours long minimum and has sold 2 million within a few days and scored above 96+ Metacritic "

Fixed, for accuracy.

I don’t think you understand the timelines of things. They have not owned those studios for long. Takes 5-7 years to make a game, they've owned them for around 3-4 years. The games are starting to come out now, as they should.

And since then Sega has spun off its pachinko arcades and bought the mobile studio that makes Angry Birds.
