Very old news. To honor your fallen brother, he already had that list in May:

Top ten biggest video games companies by revenue

The video game industry as a whole marked yet another sales record last year, being now worth over 130 billion U.S. dollars. 2021’s Top 10 biggest video game brands are also largely the same as in the previous years. The following lists the Top 10 biggest video game companies 2021 in the world...

Depending on how far reaching their sub service will go (will it eventually come to PC, or potentially do streaming via and app or USB dongle?) they could make money hand over fist. They definitely need to think along the same lines as Microsoft in that regard.
Their games will sell the service and I think the BC library will actually be quite good. It’ll be interesting to see how much it grows revenue or eats into physical sales.

rightfully so .

Little more than just that list there.

 

[Fare thee well]

In other news Sony and Tencent are in talks for a buyout. Sonycent will become a powerhouse for commun-*ahem* gaming

Seriously though, I'm happy a proper fucking company is on top. I mean no major gaming company is without a lot of flaws but you could do A LOT worse lol.

They need multiplayer games to grow the service. People already buy the single player games. I highly doubt people will jump in masses to subscribe to a service, for the same single player games. If they build up a catalog like ps2/ps3 days, they will sell by the boatloads, and still have people in line. I don't get the discontent with multiplayer games, as those are what sell a fuck ton.

This will probably end up being a MP game

The top 10 shared in tour post is false, BigN and MS numbers are higher than that. MS numbers for exemple are the ones from 2020...

Not just one game though, they need several at the very minimum. Look at all of the COD, BF, FIFA, etc. Or even all the games MS released. They all have multiplayer, and that's what gives replayability. Not just beat the game one or two times, to never pick it up again.

If Sony can get it right, they will be good to go, especially launching it day one on steam.

Maybe that new Guerilla team will make a Killzone who knows?

Anyway theres also Gaf's highly anticipated The Last of Us 2 Factions mode

You know its wrong to post onlyfans content here.

That's a bit surprising. But I guess this includes console hardware revenue. In terms of just software they are surely not even in the top 10?

The Sony haters are pathetic and I really feel sorry for them trying to downplay sony's success. It's not an easy job!

Sony are the Kings of gaming.. Just imagine the ps4 and 5 could actually meet demand.

This is that i meant on that previous thread the other day, it's not a level playing field, it just has to be accepted, it won't change for a generation and a half at least ... And that doesn't seem likely at the mo'

 

[Sosokrates]

I would say the biggest in terms of staff count is Xbox now.

 

[Airbus Jr]

10. Bandai Namco

Not bad for a company that rellied on niche franchise like soulsborne and ace combat

 

[lh032]

And it will be even bigger in the future, based on their acquisition spree, game/movie synergy recently.

By the end of the gen its going to be different, because MS will have a higher console installbase, gamepass subs, PC sales, Smart device sales.
