I literally just had an argument the other day and asked him if he was still trying to be an insider...

He answered that he was an analyst! LOL

He is like Benji sales, another grifter trying to get a job in the industry by Twitter-ing.

I can't have those conversations because he blocked me lol

And I guess gaming analyst is the new trend on twitter to excuse when he ends up wrong.

Serrano also did that.

Oh Serrano... I said something cheeky to him lately too, I just can't resist. It's too fun!

I was saying separately Sony should probably go for CDPR, it would make sense and is a Bungie size acquisition but now that the Lumberjack has said this I doubt it will come true.

It might happen. Valorization of most conpanies are down.
Especially in europe.

But CDPR is not just the studio. They also publish games in Poland, and they own GOG that is a money sink.

Would Sony want that?

Well...as you know I am an outsider, not an insider like Lumberjackman!

But if Sony had longterm ambitions on PC, it might be a good platform to start from... I think it has a much smaller userbase than Steam but quite passionate.
It all depends on Sony but they could always spin it off or sell just the GOG part too.

Benji is actually good though and doesn't make all these weird ass predictions especially acquisitions. Plus, this Rythian guy is the same guy who believes that Sony will acquire 8 publishers by 2030.

Yeah, sorry Benji is more on the level with his info definitely. I just meant Lumberjack is doing his best imitation of Benji a lot of the time.

Wasn't trying to insult Benji at all.

I saw the list of 8 or so publishers he made, absolutely ludicrous... even at a fanboy level.

No apology necessary. I didn't think you were insulting Benji or anything.

That publisher list is more like a dream/fantasy list. lol

After the ABK acquisition by Microsoft, I realized that majority of studios and/or publishers that fans want (including myself) have a slim to no chance of happening.
