"Realized" means sold btw. Looks like Zenimax and MS got the okay from EU in private and are going ahead now.

 

[M1chl]

RIP Sony

 

[Calverz]

 

[AgentP]

So the death of Bethesda then?

 

[Calverz]

Congrats to MS

 

[Mistershine.]

I wish the gun was firing dollars.

 

[aliadiere25]

8 billion for Skyrim. Not bad.

 

[Arenafighter]

So the death of Bethesda then?

 

[Riky]

Time to announce that Quake reboot Phil.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

 

[Interfectum]

So the death of Bethesda then?

 

[Mistershine.]

8 billion for Skyrim. Not bad.

It'll save Phil money in the long run, he won't have to keep buying it for every platform that they release it on.

Soon we shall know. Soon we shall ALL know! Heheheh....

So the death of Bethesda then?

 

[LordCBH]

So the death of Bethesda then?

Bethesda’s most recent title was Fallout 76, a game largely in the same realm of quality as Crackdown 3 so nothing will likely change there.

 

[PropellerEar]

Hopefully soon, so they can publicly say "Fuck off Sony Ponies, OUR games will all be exclusive!"


The debate would finally be over

 

[Lone Wolf]

8 billion for Skyrim. Not bad.

 

[Mister Wolf]

"Quake with fear".

 

[Orta]

The fallout from this deal could be hilarious.

 

[mortal]

As long as this leads to better quality gaming experiences at the end of the day, I'm all for it.

Could not care less for the constant console wars drama surrounding it.

 

[Salty Popsicle]

You should have acted.

They're already here.

The Elder Fanboys told of their return.

Their moneyhatting of 3rd party games was merely a delay,

'Til the time after social media opened,

When the sons of Sony would spill their own blood.

But no one wanted to believe,

Believe they even existed.

And when the truth finally dawned,

It dawns in exclusives!

But, there is one they fear,

In their tongue he is Xbox Savior:

PHIL SPENCER!

 

[MiguelItUp]

"Quake with fear".

Congrats to Microsoft. Still a wild buy. Curious to see how exclusivity around specific things will play out. They already said they wanted to continue to multiplatform titles. I just figure Windows/S/X will just have exclusive content, be available earlier, etc.

 

[SoloKingRobert]

Deathloop, day one on Xbox Game Pass for PC.

 

[Stuart360]

So the death of Bethesda then?

For Playstation users, quite possibly.

 

[Riky]

Do you want to bet something? I say the EU will approve the merge on March 5th

You won that one

 

[FranXico]

As long as this leads to better quality gaming experiences at the end of the day, I'm all for it.

It won't.

 

[Cornbread78]

That contract is already in place. Guess what, Elder Scrolls Online will be multi as well... #shock

 

[Salty Popsicle]

It won't.

...for people who don't own an Xbox or gaming capable PC.

 

[mansoor1980]

hope this leads to better tech in their games , 8 billion is no joke

 

[Cornbread78]

1) As long as this leads to better quality gaming experiences at the end of the day, I'm all for it.

2) Could not care less for the constant console wars drama surrounding it.

1) not likely, like, at all.....
2) I'm 100% in it for the lulz, since I can buy whatever for either console

 

[mortal]

I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.

 

[Riky]

Didn't realise it was day one on PC still, will give it a whirl.

 

[FrankWza]

The fallout from this deal could be hilarious.

You think Fallout is that bad a franchise?

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

...for people who don't own an Xbox or gaming capable PC.

Every Playstation user has a beefy PC. After all you "can play Xbox games on PC". So everybody wins!

 

[reksveks]

Didn't realise it was day one on PC still, will give it a whirl.

Same, thought it was like FF7R. Hopefully it comes to PC gamepass day one.

 

[futurama78]

30 million games is 1.8 billion. What?

 

[Derktron]

The moment of truth should come out whether Microsoft acts accordingly and make everything exclusive to up their branding of Xbox. Or 2013 ver. 2.02 comes out.

 

[Derktron]

Every Playstation user has a beefy PC. After all you "can play Xbox games on PC". So everybody wins!

Every? Can’t tell if this is sarcasm.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Hopefully soon, so they can publicly say "Fuck off Sony Ponies, OUR games will all be exclusive!"

The debate would finally be over

 

[Fredrik]

So what now? No more me nice guy, Phil?

Time to stop pretending and show the real plan, people need to know where to invest their money.

 

[Derktron]

Hopefully soon, so they can publicly say "Fuck off Sony Ponies, OUR games will all be exclusive!"

The debate would finally be over

Not yet. This is not over yet.

 

[PhaseJump]

Now would be a good time to reboot Quake.

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Am I doing this right?

 

[NickFire]

Hopefully MS lets us know their intentions one way or the other soon. If they don't, I think the silence will say a lot. I can't think of a better time to announce all exclusive intentions in the future since every day gets us closer to actually being able to buy consoles in stores.

 

[Bo_Hazem]

Am I doing this right?

Now that's some shit I wanna watch.

 

[turtlepowa]

So the death of Bethesda then?

 

[greencoder]

8 billion for Skyrim. Not bad.

Inflation kills the money Microsoft has (over 100 billions IIRC), so they better invest.

 

[futurama78]

Ok so Elder Minecraft squeeeeeeeee

 

[LisaMariaMartin]

Every? Can’t tell if this is sarcasm.

It was the battlecry of every sony warrior a few months ago.

Now they just reference money left on tables.. or something I dunno.
