I am shocked tbh. All this fake ass neutral journalists dropping their masks.
Never thought Christopher would be an Xbox shill. Not the first tweet where he favours Microsoft’s actions.

Just imagine what the reaction would be if it was Sony buying Square Enix or Sega (both which pale in comparison to the size of what MS has already tried to acquire while still being framed as the good guys/underdogs).

Agree the media will melt when Sony should announce the acquisition of Square Enix for example. Can’t await that day. :p

I think Facebook has the record for the dumbest takes concerning this deal or pretty much any topic for that matter. People read headlines and somehow got the idea that Sony was trying to make COD exclusive.

Might be too late now. SE value will skyrocket after their latest masterpiece, FFXVI.
Nah it’s still okay.

I mean even if they reach a value similar to Capcom close to $9B it would be still reasonable to acquire them. Remember TakeTwo bought for $12B Zynga (half of their market cap).

A bargain.

Wipe the entire SE business leadership, empower the dev teams and help them out with tech, focus on their classic IPs (take a page from Capcom), continue the good work with Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.

Parasite Eve, Xenogears, Tactics Ogre/Ogre Battle, Vagrant Story, Chrono, FF Tactics, they are sitting on gold and they also have massive multi-media potential.
