[Official] Microsoft has purchased Zenimax Media/Bethesda

[jdh96]

Absolutely terrible news i really wish this wasn't happening.

 

[Dega]

HOLY SHIT

 

[AuthenticM]

this is not a good thing. Consolidations need to stop.

Purchases of studios are fine, even great, when the studio is small and was in financial pickles, such as Obsidian and Double Fine. Bethesda isn't strapped for cash. This was not necessary. Moreover, Microsoft already owns both Obsidian and inXile, which make RPGs.

sigh

 

[moustascheman]

WTF. This is huge!

 

[IMCaprica]

Thanks. I hate it.

 

[Mula]

[pswii60]

Strange news to come after Sony moneyhatted two of their big games though.

 

[Diabolique Veridis]

Zenimax/Bethesda I think is one of the big publishers that I wouldn't be happy at all if they were bought by either Microsoft or Sony. Developer studios I get, but publishers like this is too much I think. Oh well if it happens it happens.

 

[FliX]

Wut?

 

[mute]

Bad in the whole corporate consolidation sense but besides that it is a good fit.

 

[logash]

Insane. I will 100% have to own an Xbox at some point.

 

[GING-SAMA]

DAMNN.

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Holy fucking shit

 

[Dancrane212]

Holy shit.

 

[koiwai]

[christocolus]

whaaaaaat?????

 

[Biggzy]

I guess we can bin the notion that Xbox has no games. Their portfolio of studios is massive now.

 

[tapedeck]

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

 

[Oregano]

Massive for Microsoft.

Terrible for the industry in general.

 

[Handsome James]

RPG powerhouse next gen

 

[entremet]

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