Sony coming for BioWare hats next!

As long as they don't buy bioware. Buying is the ultimate hat.

Nah, EA isn't gonna sell off BioWare. At least not anytime soon. 

While that is technically true, I've always viewed it the other way around. Buying a studio, I'm not gonna question about whether or not a game will be exclusive to a platform, but when it comes to game after game after game after game of a multiplatform studio and those games are being hatted, that's annoying as all hell.

you know the xbox fanbase hurtin from these moneyhats when they start wishing them on certain users so we can all experience the pain together LOL

Hell yeah bruh, FF, Persona, KH, BG3, throw in a Ubisoft trash game for Ryuu and we all gonna be cryin like Ryan.

Don't care about Persona or Kingdom Hearts either.

You're a bigger fan of Ubisoft than me lately. I was once a simp but not anymore.

Still buying Far Cry and Assassin's Creed though.



On a more serious note tho, there very little to nothing that gets me excited in video games these days, outside of extremely rare exceptions like CP77 or NITW there’s pretty much nothing that gives me that same genuinely excited feeling like I had during the OG Xbox days. BG3 was one of those games. What a shit day to be an Xbox user.

omg... can't imagine the reaction here if they hat a Bioware game. lmao.

wtf no, I'm just catching up to your numbers, which I'm not even close  

well hopefully Sony gets a nice hat for them. You def deserve a Sony hat.. can't think of a person more deserving in this thread tbh

Hmmm well I understand the expectations and disappointment factor I feel end result matters the most. Would much rather have a game like Baldurs Gate be timed exclusive than Sony just go buy Larian and make all future games permanent exclusive.

Just as I imagine most PlayStatiom gamers would prefer MS moneyhatted Starfield instead of outright buying the publisher and now thinking "oh no doom, no elder Scrolls, no Wolfenstein".

Money hats is child's play compared to what ms did with Bethesda.

Y'all gone wild now.

EA/Take-Two is absolutely NOT taking a moneyhat.

EA is a little up Microsoft's ass and EA Play is attached to Game Pass, Take-Two is a company set in their ways, both companies are rich as hell.

You comparing at most a $6bn company to a $18bn+ for Take-Two and $30bn for EA.

I'd be SHOCKED if Sony manages to moneyhat a MAJOR title from either of these two companies.

Yeah I completely agree with you on that one, but there's unfortunately titles that Sony has hatted that were originally timed exclusivity, yet have never made it over to Xbox. And like you mentioned with Starfield, it wouldn't surprise me if BG3 does turn into a permanent hat. There's just no telling these days, and that kind of uncertainty sucks.

Though tbh I don't think acquisitions kill the uncertainty either. I'm sure there'll be plenty holding out hope Elder Scrolls 6 comes to PlayStation.
