My guess: Sony acquired by Google.

Daniel Riccardo joins Playstation 5 Racing Team who joins Formula 1 in 2021 with the new rules? Could be amazing.

Nah but for real , I hope it's an announcement of an announcement.

Its not PS5, this close to holidays.

Studio Acquistions I would guess? Insomniac, QD?

Shuei and content guy are in Paris so I would assume QD.

No not new been a member of GAF and here for a decade.... on lunch hour and just saw the tweet - page or two but lacked the context of where/how it linked, hence the question.

So thanks for the answer.

I'm sorry I confused you with the other guy trolling :)

Actually, now that i look at the tweet, it says Gaming News. After that Zhuge responded in here, but that was after somebody posted that tweet in here. Does anybody actually know if this is PlayStation related, or did the discussion just happen in here because of somebody posted that tweet in here?

ZhugeEX can you at least specify that much since you posted in here before?

I think it could mean someone else entering the gaming business seriously and buying some publishers and studios like Insomniac

My guess: GamePass streaming on PS4?

Or it could be the Google Console announcement.

Those are the two interesting next gen things I could think of.

Then who would make Spidey 2? I assumed Insomniac was already working on it.
Those deals can still finish when someone is being acquired. But that's the only other thing I can think of...buying big pubs and studios can affect next-generation...
Why post it in the Sony First Party Studios then?
Because it can affect the future games that will never be exclusive or devs working exclusively on a platform holder...like a sony.

You know what, what if that Harry Potter game could be a PS4 exclusive?

Who knows. Sony is the reason Inomniac is working on Spidey, without Sony, Insomniac wouldn't be making Spidey 2, so if someone would acquire Insomniac, they could not be making Spidey 2.

Correct me if Im wrong of course.

Lower your expectations BOIS. I don't think it's going to be a game announcement, an acquisition or free online (lol). It will probably be a Sony decision that some will welcome and some will not, hence the interesting discussions imho.

Google has been rumored to be aggressively trying to moneyhat some IPs for their rumored console and streaming service so I guess it could relate to a franchise that used to be on Playstation going to the Google Console as the relation to Sony.

According to Zhuge, the tweets are unrelated. I don't think the "interesting discussion" tweet is related to his tease.

Nobody other than Sony is acquiring Insomniac, don't forget that a couple of weeks ago the Insomniac logo accompanied by some other studios were put not he Playstation Spain website showing them as "owned" studios.

Well it's time to go do something now instead of just hanging around here. We don't even have a time frame of when we'll hear about this. For all we know it's at midnight, lol.

I know. I know. ;) It's fun to speculate. I'm still on GamePass type of deal with 1st party on PSNow...I think it would be great...but we shall see soon enough.
would make no sense for sony to do this. Sony's first party games actually sell. Would make them less of a profit by them releases first party games day one.

Still, I bet this news does have to do with PSNow or PsPlus. One of the two

So there is more than one bomb being dropped?

That's the gist I got. I made a thread about it, and it was locked with Zhuge telling me he doesn't think the tweets are related, so his comment in this Sony thread also seems unrelated to the tweet about next gen.

He can correct me if I'm wrong, though, but I feel like we're now not being told anything lol
