Disagree with the bolded. 

Sony will still get Japan exclusive titles which pretty much is the 3rd party support MS doesn't get. 

No point investing in multiplayer based studios when the biggest multiplayer games come from 3rd parties.

Of course Japan exclusives will be there, but Japan exclusives are not everything either.

Also keep in mind there competitors both Nintendo and Xbox will be offering exclusive MP games. Its also likely the next Xbox will be aimed to be more powerful so 3rd party games are going to look better else where. With Nintendos quality 1st party games and Xboxs quantity of 1st party studios and both offering there own MP games, makes next gen look interesting.

To me it wouldn't hurt Sony to make there own MP games, hence i think they should buy acouple studios just for that. 

Its not like Sony doesn't have multiplayer for their games.

I think its likely Sony purchases a couple of new studios. Santa Monica and Guerrilla Games are both expanding and a new team is being built in San Diego. They have publicly stated SIE is a priority for them, and if IIRC, will be allocating more resources to them. They are beginning to look at Chinese developers/studios, if China Hero Project Games/ China Joy is any indication. Who knows what kind of inroads they are making there.
