Forums - Gaming - You wake up one morning and read that Microsoft bought Sony, what do you do?

I would probably just go back to sleep. It wouldn't affect my gaming at all. Now if I woke up and read that Microsoft had bought Nintendo, then I would have lost it.

Basically I'll make a prediction thread saying that Italy will become from the 10th biggest gaming market that it was something along the lines of 30th.
In Italy 85% of population classify PlayStation=Gaming Console as a word, if there is no PS there is no gaming market lmao

It would actually be fine, as all exclusives would be on the same system and the Playstation would most probably be the brand and system that lingers. Xbox would probably go away. Nintendo would have more breathing space to be an alternative.

It wouldnt be that bad, aslong as Microsoft didnt start their monopolistic practices... but they likely would.

Maybe it will be called the X-Station.

You mean this monopolistic practices from Microsoft?

Thats towards the competition. I mean rising prices, DLC malpractices, etc. Everything just getting worse and worse cause they can.



For something like this to happen, Sony really, really, really, REALLY needs to be in a bad shape. I mean, falling into 4th place (which is impossible), HW and SW sales having plummeted for months, yosp and Andrew House wouldn't give a damn and bail out of the company, lie to the fans continuously, and losing support from the fans. Does it remember you of another company?

I would be dissappointed, since it has been a longtime company that have given me so much enjoyment. But it would wear out fast due to what I've written above.

Would I ever play on their gaming console? Probably. Probably not. I'd probably pick the new console up to see if it's as good as people would swear about, or go full blown PC, which is highly unlikely but still a possibility.



1) Make popcorn
2) Get berry flavored Fresca
3) Call off work
4) Log into vgc and watch the world burn.

Everything else is what Angelus said.

Would their console still be named Playstation? because that brand is alot stronger and has a better image than xbox does.

Would they let the heads at playstation run this devision? Make the deals & PR? because so far they seem to be doing a better job of things.

Basically not much would change.
Xbox would probably disappear, and it would be the same old same old at playstation, just now they would be owned by MS.



I carry on playing my ps4 and wait for any Microsoft games to come out which I might want to play, which there is only probably gears of war that interests me.

Add me if you want but let me know youre from this website

I'd finish my coffee, kiss my family, get into my car, and then the car would explode.



TBH i would lose my mind, i dont if negative or positive, just laugh. Because sooooo many people would be pissed off. LIKE HOLY DAMN. As a nintendo owner i would be just sitting aside and watching the  storm, not because i dislike playstation, i dont think microsoft should buy them. But if someone bought nintendo i would be preatty pissed until i got some more information.



I'd click to the page where people who never owned a ps4 had downloaded The Order 1886 and were wowed by it and apologized. 

 

I'd then post for the first time after being a lurker for a couple years in agreement and welcome their support for a part two. 

 

Oops, I'd post for the second time I guess.
