In the end, it's funny now that Microsoft has to BUY OUT companies that were already on PlayStation all along in order to steal an audience from the PlayStation brand.
In comparison, this would be like Sony buying out EA and there would no longer be any FIFA or MADDEN games on the Xbox. This is just screaming desperation. The companies that fell under the Sony umbrella were forever Sony owned companies from day one, like Naughty Dog, Santa Monica, Guerilla and Liverpool Studios to name just a few.

Naughty Dog: "Founded by Andy Gavin and Jason Rubin in 1984" "acquired by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2001"

Guerrilla: "The company was founded as Lost Boys Games in January 2000" "purchased by Sony Interactive Entertainment in 2005"

Liverpool Studios: "Founded in 1984" "In 1993, it became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment"

Congrats, 3/4 of the studios you listed Sony had to BUY OUT. Only 1/4 was "forever Sony owned".

That 75/25, close to MS's market share. We circle back
