I’ve always been an Xbox fan and Halo CE is still one on my favorite games of all time. With MS currently buying the whole games market I’m pretty thrilled Sony made this purchase.

I appreciate all the common sense everyone is sharing in this thread. Personally, I’m going on intuition here. I don’t like MS buying their way to the top. Sony got some poetic justice by acquiring the talent that made Xbox what it is.

I’d definitely buy a PlayStation 5 to check out Destiny now.

I don't like the consolidation either but if you listen to MS it almost sounds like MS is saying if this doesn't happen Netflix, Amazon, or Apple will do it and no one will want that. I could be wrong though.

This is my take on it as well. Companies don’t just sell themselves unless they need to for whatever reason. Someone was going to buy these companies and if it’s between MS and Apple/Google/Amazon/Netflix/Sony then I’d rather it be MS because at least then you know games will also come to PC day one, GamePass day one, and everything can be downloaded or bought at retail and played locally. With most of those companies, cloud would be the only option.
