If bloomberg is saying they can buy netflix + imax = ~15, 16 billion, then they could definitely buy any game company outside of Nintendo and Microsoft.

With that said, people hoping for a huge acquisition like that are just setting themselves up for disappointment.



Quantic dreams all the way!!!

They aren't publically listed (if I remember correctly), so it will be harder to acquire them. Plus that might be a lose situation for Valve PC front, unless sony allows them to continue on the PC.

U might be right, they tried to buy Warner Music, but Warner went with someone else for a lower price, which was surprising. Their offer was over 2 billion dollars IIRC.

Still they might buy a couple of close 3rd party studios. SP + QD + CH would probably cost them < 150 million.



Sega. I here they have a pretty good Mascot for hire. ;)

Sony could bring him back.

P.S. They also have some other cool ip's......



Square Enix > Zipper + Sucker Punch combined.

Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Hitman, Tomb Raider, Deus Ex, Front Mission, Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean...

All exclusive to PlayStation platforms (And probably PC, for games like Deus Ex and Hitman).


Seriously. Sony should have bought them a long time ago.



                            

Oh, and I desperately want Sony to buy the rights to Crash Bandicoot.
