If you guys wouldn't cry over losing the game that gives you most revenue each year then I think Sony is more than happy not to have you in Ryan's chair.
It can be argued that Jim hasn't had real success yet that he's skating off the work of those before him. And I don't think that is entirely fair tbh but we won't see his true impact on Sony for another few years. How well the division does, the games greenlit under his watch, etc. I'm sure he will do fine but he basically inherited a ship that was on the right course with solid infrastructure moving forward.
I have said this before but to me the funny part about this is people would bring up this MS warchest if MS got tired of getting bullied and those people were laughed at that MS would never spend huge money
Gamers shouldn’t be concerned about Sony’s pockets taking a hit.
This a joke right? Do you know who was responsible for playstation being a juggernaut in eu? Feel free to go and check the interview with gbiz.
All I'm going to ask is this: if sony we're buying ABK, would they play nice with Microsoft or Nintendo?
One little sentence doesn't help you when most of what you said is plain ignorance
Microsoft, with Final Fantasy.
I feel getting a game exclusive for a year is different from acquiring the entire company meaning that their library of games could potentially never go to other consoles ever again if the purchaser wants.
You are getting upset here over the fact that his statement **might** possibly influence a decision that involves taking games away while complaining about exclusive deals that do the same, even though, for a limited time....and everyone else is the fanboy?
An imaginary scenario isn't a defence...
What I posted is the general consensus of how Jim is viewed by most gamers, you can agree or disagree as to whether its an accurate assessment or not.
What's wrong with trying to get major publishers to put their games on game pass? It's not like people who want to buy them wouldn't be able to.
Nothing is wrong
Jimbo is the real honey badger.as a PS fan i have a love/hate thing for jimbo , but ill be damned he really is a pain in the ass for microsoft
What tactics is that?
He knows he's not losing CoD. He's terrified of losing all the anti-competitive advantages he's enjoyed on CoD for the last 8 years when his marketing contract runs out.
There wouldn't be an Apple if MS hadn't bailed them out. So anti competitive.
Sega knocked themselves out of the industry with terrible decisions several generations in a row, including before Sony entered the picture.
A year lol where is FF7:R on the xbox or how about the newest 2 year deals. After 2 years the publishers might never bother releasing such an old game. The 1 year deals well lol. Still waiting on kena on xbox i don't think that turned out to be a 1 year deal.

I honestly think he is scared of game pass. He knows for a lot of consumers this game might as well be exclusive if you don't have to spend 70-80 dollars for one game.
This is true. If Sega of America and Sega of Japan would have worked together instead of against each other the outcome could have been different.
That's a funny gif.as a PS fan i have a love/hate thing for jimbo , but ill be damned he really is a pain in the ass for microsoft
That was more Bill betting on Steve as an investment opportunity, not MS helping Apple.
He should be scared of Game Pass. Consumers fucking love subscription services if it means they get to choose from a lot of content and that is exactly what Game Pass is shaping up to be. Game Pass is a major disruptor in the industry.
I always find this odd, as Microsoft had crossplay with blazblue calamity trigger, shadow run, lost planet and probably a handful of other games between Xbox 360 and PC.
Literally increased competition helping consumers.
Call of duty will still be on playstation.
