Title: Gamers- this could really shake up the industry Post by: Black Diamond Vol on January 30, 2018, 02:10:18 EST Microsoft rumored to be acquiring EA, Valve, and PUBG.
Look at your game library- how many of them are EA games? 25%? More? Now imagine all those franchises being XBox exclusives in the future, including most every major licensed sports franchise besides MLB. That could be scary news for Playstation owners. :eek: http://www.ign.com/articles/2018/01/29/rumor-suggests-microsoft-has-considered-acquiring-ea-valve-pubg-corp Title: Re: Gamers- this could really shake up the industry Post by: VinnieVOL on January 30, 2018, 02:57:38 EST Yikes, I've never owned a Microsoft console in my life. :wtf:

But I don't know if it would be good for the industry as a whole. Sony currently slays MS when it comes to exclusives, but if this deal goes through, I could see them responding by making a big deal of their own. The other mega-publisher besides EA is Ubisoft. Would Sony try to make a play to acquire them? I would. |
