I'm actually for this. They do great work and have only worked with Sony last gen and this. Great developer. Maybe now they can have the financial security to try a Nex Machina again or a Resogun.

Doubtful. They're going bigger, which is exactly what they should be doing.

I like it when Sony buys studios I'm unfamiliar with and whose games I haven't played. Not saying this as a troll, just as a Nintendo and PC gamer I'd prefer Sony buy studios like this, where I don't know what I'm missing, than them buying a studio that regularly makes popular 3rd party games.

I can't tell if this is genuine or just sarcastic. But the Sony modus operandi is to buy studios who they have have worked with on a lot of exclusive content (Sony IP), not studios who are predominantly multiplatform. 

They could still get a small team every so often to make something similar. It's their best work.
