I agree and have said this before.

Buying a studio is expensive and often makes them lazy and unproductive, potentially stifling originality.

Its just too cozy for the people in the studio. Better to sub-contract them to make an exclusive if you can or hire/poach their best talent, but don't buy the whole studio unless you really have to.

^This!

Certainly see how the most exciting game coming out within the next it is ReSpawn's TitanFall.  Sure they could have purchased it, but with the deal the have the developers have had the freedom to make something that is capturing the world's attention.

There are plenty of other first party developers working on all sorts of cool things.  But one shines above all others.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!
