Take Two has like a 13~ billion dollar market cap, Sony's is like $60 billion tops? Can Sony really afford to throw that kind of moolah around willy nilly in response to competitive pressure?

Microsoft has 130~ billion in it's war chest to spend on whatever it wants. And has a market cap of $700~ billion which could reach $1 trillion by 2021.

Microsoft could literally buy Sony, Take Two and EA.

 

Sony's assets alone is worth more than $150b, not a chance that they could buy Sony. They could buy up all the stocks for a ludicrous amount of money, but that wouldn't be buying it entirely.

 

Remember me to ignore you for any future financial discussions.
