What do you think?

I'm just curious what was your reaction to the Rare ,Mojang (minecraft), ZeniMax Media (Bethesda,id software, Arkane, Machine games, Tango gameworks, ect), Playgrounds, Activision, Blizzard, King.... ?

I don't think Xbox has ever really grown 1 studio, to be successful by themselves.
Everything they have, they bought.

If they couldn't buy studios, and had to form them, themselves and build them up.... there would be no xbox today imo.


Also lets not act like it is only Xbox that buys studios.
Nintendo has bought like 5 studios in the last few years.
Also even nintendo has a history were it shuts down these studios it has bought.

It is not just sony and microsoft/xbox.
