Actually think that Microsoft makes the most sense to buy EA. They won't be able to do it in the near future though, because it will raise too much regulatory scrutiny. But, EA's sports games are just crying out for subscription service. They would work perfectly with Gamepass.

FIFA and Madden and alike are actually the games that make the most sense for subscriptions. They're basically just annual re-releases with updated rosters. Should just keep them continually updated and never release new titles. Or maybe just release one new title per engine update or whatever.

As long as their revenue is smaller than PlayStation and Tencent all deals will go trough.
