[0ptimusPayne]

Yooooooooo

 

[Jeffram]

This is not good for the industry

 

[Deleted member 8166]

fuck me that's a great purchase

 

[Theorry]

 

[Anteros]

Wow, that's a pretty big gaming acquisition for Microsoft. I'll be interesting to see how it shakes out. With its acquisition of this + Mojang + others, does this now make Microsoft the biggest gaming company I wonder?

 

[Adrifi]

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[defaltoption]

Holy fuck

 

[ShapeDePapa]

Jeeeeeeeeesus Christ that's huge lol.

 

[doyneamite]

Haha the absolute mad lads.

 

[huH1678]

That's pretty shitty news, buying a big publisher.

 

[LeMillion]

Holy fucking shit. This is an insane investment and boy does it add a ton of value to the Xbox brand. This just guaranteed that I buy a Series X.

 

[Ultra]

Biggest gaming news in years. Very big. It also just pretty much guaranteed my purchase of an Xbox this gen

 

[Yerffej]

Holy fucking shit!

 

[Skatterd]

Holy shit what

 

[C J P]

Well, I guess I'm getting a Series X, then.

 

[lunanto]

MASSIVE GET.

 

[Hippopuncher12]

This is actually horrible news, I mean wtf.

 

[antispin]

Holy shit.

 

[pswii60]

Awful if true, unless they decide to keep releasing their games on all platforms

They probably will, but ultimately bring the games to Game Pass day one too which is their end goal.

 

[j_abdi]

Excuse me? Wtf???? Out of nowhere???

 

[exodus]

Huh, well at least Doom stays on PC in some capacity....

Huh? Xbox buying them means nothing but good things for PC gamers. Guaranteed to come to GamePass day 1 now.

Oh my god, this is WILD

 

[The Main Event]

Noooooo

 

[DrDeckard]

This isn't a fucking Megaton! this is interplanetary....Phil clearly uses the language for gamers everywhere!...no way they are cutting out the PS fanbase. If he uses that wording imo.

Good on MS if they keep it multi plat

 

[Wesker]

Oof. That's the aggressive Microsoft.

 

[Joeyro]

What the actual fuck

 

[Byvar]

Wow. What a huge get for Microsoft, and a huge loss for Sony. Guess we won't see Skyrim on PS5!

 

[StUnNeR H2K]

Elder Scrolls 6 Day One Game Pass.

 

[Arex]

Wow D:

 

[Adrifi]

OBSIDIAN MIGHT WORK ON ANOTHER FALLOUT GAME LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOO

 

[Grudy]

Holy shit that's insane.

 

[Snarfington]

Holy Jesus Christ almighty

My Series S just became a Series X, I guess

 

[RoKKeR]

Holeeeeeeeeee shit!

 

[defaltoption]

Y'all wanted to keep talking mad shit about Xbox having no games this is what you get

 

[PhantomArtifice]

Holy. Shit.

 

[Azerach]

Big Oof for the industry. OOF.

 

[entremet]

This is massive.

 

[Xadra]

Holly

 

[SoundCheck]

wtf

 

[Patitoloco]

Really, this is incredible, one of the biggest acquisitions I've ever seen in this industry.

MS was like "Deathloop not on Xbox? Hell nah"

 

[Yoshi88]

This doesn't strike me as that good for the industry as a whole, or does it?

 

[Mr_Antimatter]

That's a huge move. A lot of solid ip and major franchises there.

 

[suedester]

So that was the last time we're gonna see a Deathloop trailer on a Sony show huh

Click to shrink...

Doubt it as a contract will have already been signed. This will probably be a minecraft like situation where titles still end up on competitor consoles I should imagine.

 

[Dest]

uhm
holy shit???

 

[Geode]

Oh damn! What a megaton and it wasn't even leaked! Congrats Microsoft, let's see if you make some great games with this acquisition.

 

[NippleViking]

Holy fuckkkk

 

[Guaraná]

what a crap announcement.

 

[Deleted member 8468]

Huh? Xbox buying them means nothing but good things for PC gamers. Guaranteed to come to GamePass day 1 now.

[manzoman96]
