Wow, surely they’re glad they’ve got Bungie instead of Warframe.The interesting thing is Sony tried to buy Warframe devs in 2020 and got outbid by Tencent....Sony has been looking for a GAAS Dec for a while now

dawg you're high as hell if you think Destiny was the pioneer of GaaS. A success story, sure, but pioneer?I think sony is trying to buy talent rather than valuable IPs. Bungie are incredibly talented and pretty much pioneered the GAAS.
And destiny is shit now. Funny how console wars work isn't it?Acquisitions are suddenly good now.
But why? They could have bought Sega or Konami for that...
How about we say they made it more mainstream?dawg you're high as hell if you think Destiny was the pioneer of GaaS. A success story, sure, but pioneer?

I would be interested in seeing some screenshots of people’s trophy counts for Destiny and Destiny 2 considering they are now the ‘king of FPS’Fanboys be like "Hey, I like Destiny now"
Or said vanilla game makes obscene profits which parts of can be allocated to investments into riskier ROI projects (aka what you want).If that the logic then Vanillaware games shouldn't exist and Dragon Quest game shouldn't release in west because they dont sell that much.
I'm sorry but thats just kill all excitement out of the gaming industry.
Now see Sony fans liking these kinds of buys they cultivate studios and games only 2 weeks ago I got this as response here ..
Capcom brings in fighting games, like Street Fighter plus games lile DMC, Resident Evil and Monster Hunter. Fighting games is something Sony needs.
If they lose those titles to Xbox it will be awful. Way worse than losing Bungie.
Plus Capcom have alot more other IP’s than bungie.
If Sony or anyone in fact buys a combined Sega, Square and Capcom they will always have fans buying there consoles regardless what games the other sides have.
True, but Sega, Capcom, and Konami have a better back catalogue that Sony could cash in on (especially for their GaaS initiative).Simply, Destiny is more mainstream than anything either of those 2 are making.
destiny 3 only on ps5 ''whispers'' and pc
Yeah that guy is on crack if he thinks Gaas was pioneered by bungie? not even close.dawg you're high as hell if you think Destiny was the pioneer of GaaS. A success story, sure, but pioneer?
Third party Japanese games is only reason I'm still keeping my Playstation, but barely get excited for first party games anymore.
1-1.5 and now 5? Damn, that inflation.ok i explained i know what i said. wake me up when they spend more than 5b ....they will buy a pub like square Enix (and they didn't ) and they have around 5 to 6b to spend for 3 years ....and that is exactly what they doing accept it. Next year they will not spend 3b again.
Yes. Well done for mastering itAnd destiny is shit now. Funny how console wars work isn't it?
That doesn’t mean new games won’t be exclusive.According to this xbox is 25% of the D2 playerbase
PC used to be Destiny 2’s smallest platform - now it’s the biggest
Behold, the best place to play Destiny 2www.pcgamesn.com
The reason they payed $3.6 billion is because that is what its worth as a multiplatform game.
Cut off 25% of the player base and it's not worth $3.6 billion anymore.
But it's worse than that because you also generate bad press, piss off the players, potentially reducing the value even more, they would be killing much more than 25% of what it's worth.
Why?This douche is so full of himself.
I think sony is trying to buy talent rather than valuable IPs. Bungie are incredibly talented and pretty much pioneered the GAAS.
I actually wouldnt mind seeing that too. I know poeple say 'everyone' hates COD, but in all my time on here i honestly cant remember anyone saying they love Destiny 2. Plus its staying multiplatform anyway.I would be interested in seeing some screenshots of people’s trophy counts for Destiny and Destiny 2 considering they are now the ‘king of FPS’
All I'm saying if Nintendo can have studio like Monolith Soft that makes exclusive JRPG for them then so can Sony.Sony has always relied on third partys for japanese games. Sure, they had Japan Studio but that was just a tiny amount. I hate what happened to Japan Studio but they haven't made anything groundbraking since SOTC and their output stagnated with each gen. I hope Asobi becomes their big JRPG/Platformer studio.

Maybe in the console FPS space.How about we say they made it more mainstream?
Went kinda downhill, they started removing story that I paid for and the DLC is the price of a full game. I revisited it when the PS5 version came out, got bored.Hows destiny doing nowadays i remember 1 was huge, then destiny 2 came out and everyone was upset until the expansions fixed alot of complaints. Now you dont hear much about it anymore until now that is. Hopefully sony greenlights a myth sequel.
Someone should tell Ryan that live services only devalue gaming and he should be rising game prices to 100$ instead! ;D
Man, the future is really bright with Sony and MS sucking in other publishers and going multiplatform. I honestly don't see consoles anymore in the next 15-20 years, it'll all be just xCloud/PSNow apps on your TV.
Let's hope Asobi is the one to do it.All I'm saying if Nintendo can have studio like Monolith Soft that makes exclusive JRPG for them then so can Sony.
I fucking miss being excited for first party Playstation games.
:s PlayStation exclusive D2 missions are making a comeback.
Q. Will Destiny 2: The Witch Queen include any platform exclusives?
No. The Witch Queen will not contain any platform exclusives. Every player should have an amazing Destiny experience, no matter where you choose to play

Stop embarrassing yourself further. You lost once, you’re gonna lose again. You were wrong. Give up.is a good get just because of the very poor situation of the FPS genre on PlayStation .. at the same time would be useless get for Ms.... that said let's face it here we are not even at Bethesda levels .. leave alone Activision Bliz. I was hoping for a little pub at least
im pretty sure there was a thread about ms should buy Bungie to make haloAnd destiny is shit now. Funny how console wars work isn't it?
these deals take 6 months to a year or more to hash out, if the deal was done 6 months to a year ago MS being in on it before that is pretty in line with that tweet.Sept 2020. Why would he ever admit to ongoing talks and discussions? It doesn't happen. Jez is pretty well cued in. If he says Bungie gave Microsoft a price to bring them in, I'd say it's likely true. His sourcing has never been bad for the record on Microsoft and Xbox.
That doesn’t mean new games won’t be exclusive.
Destiny is shit before this but I do think its a good buy for Sony if they can get them to do a FPS other than Destiny.And destiny is shit now. Funny how console wars work isn't it?
If this purchase still leads to multiplat games, then the buy out is for the money Destiny brings in with mtx. Not for console exclusive hoarding unless they change their minds which they can always do. Its not like Sony and Bungie are going to say all games going forward are PS only on day one of the announcement.
From the purple board:
They'll release games on PC. It's not rocket science. The games won't release on Xbox. Keep dreaming, though.Q. Bungie has future games in development, will they now become PlayStation exclusives?
No. We want the worlds we are creating to extend to anywhere people play games. We will continue to be self-published, creatively independent, and we will continue to drive one, unified Bungie community.
this could mean PS and PC, not Xbox.Q. Bungie has future games in development, will they now become PlayStation exclusives?

I really don’t get this purchase, honestly. Self-published in particular makes no sense to me in the context of an acquisition.Q. Bungie has future games in development, will they now become PlayStation exclusives?
No. We want the worlds we are creating to extend to anywhere people play games. We will continue to be self-published, creatively independent, and we will continue to drive one, unified Bungie community.
I wasn't at all. I get that you want this badly. But saying wake me up when sony will spend more than 5b is still thereStop embarrassing yourself further. You lost once, you’re gonna lose again. You were wrong. Give up.
