Where do you stand on Microsoft buying Activision/Blizzard?

As long as a PS console exists, I don't see Sony allowing games to go straight to PC right away. They'll likely always have some sort of launch date separation between platforms. As long as the wait isn't too long, then I don't see the problem if the games are ported well and are worth it.

I think this actually works, because even when it comes to who owns what prior third parties, they all will have to play relatively nicely with sharing games between platforms and how much they charge each other or it could get messy quick.

It would also force MS to get serious for once about new in house IP. They've been seriously lacking that for a long time. There wouldn't be much Sony could buy and keep as exclusive either.

I think it will and ill tell you why

1 Sony isnt doing cross gen Ms is = Sony has have more cross gen exclusives then ms have.

2 Sony will never release their first party games on Pc like MS = sony started releasing their first party games on Pc.

3 Sony will never release their games before 2-4 years on Pc = Sony have started releasing their games on PC within 6 to 12 months.

4 Sony will never have day and date = thats still up in the air but i think they will.

I think Sony is only doing what they must to compete with what MS is trying with XB on PC and Game Pass.

If Game Pass doesn't end up successful enough, Sony will back off on services and PC, but likely won't ditch PC.

If Game Pass looks like it's going to truly succeed, Sony very well will transition super quickly to a similar offering.

I'd say it's way to early to tell still.
