Were you expecting to see Starfield on this list? I'm confused why you are disappointed 😂😂

These deals don't happen over night. I'm sure Sony was offered it, by Square Enix. Sony thinks too highly of the Uncharted IP. I think having Tomb Raider would have been just as good as the Uncharted IP. In my eyes, Sony dropped the ball with this one. Crystal Dynamics is a very consistent developer.

Are SE selling the studios or the IP these studios worked on as well? Because 300 m seems way too cheap to give up tomb Raider in this deal

Last time I got 11. I fell back down to a 5 today. I have dishonored my ancestors.

I don't care what anyone says, and I'd fight them to the death. FFX-2 is one of the best Final fantasy titles. People let their nostalgia of FFX ruin their chance to experience it for the fantastic game it is. Sure it has some fan service, but I still love it all the same.

@4kgk2 insomniac wasn't Microsoft's demographic for studios. They only had one IP to their name. Since Sony owned all of Insomniac's best IP. It made sense to go with Sony.

Really sticking it to take two 😂😂

1&2 are still my favorite but I'll wait till after the review to see if this is worth touching

If they put it in writing and it can't be backtracked to other types of games, then I'd be fine with this.

But I highly doubt it, this smells like a slippery slope to me...

Tbh I don't mind them as long as they are only supplementary to the single player experiences.

If Sony bought Capcom would it when need Silent Hill anymore?

Resident evil is a bigger IP

Id love it on PlayStation. We will have to see how it goes.

The first two were fantastic and I'm happy to hear this!

What's the point of putting
Xbox and inxile/Obsidian/Rare/initiative
PlayStation/PSVR2/ Haven.
They are in the same family of gaming.

@Rmg0731 Microsoft's biggest problem isn't buying studios...it's managing them.

I believe they have had 2-3 allegations in the past year from their studios. I doubt that'll get any better once Activision/Blizzard becomes first party.
They should stop acquiring and work on fixing what they have.

@KidBoruto I doubt Kojima wants to be tied to a publisher again after all the hassle he dealt with at Konami...

Buying Take-two and keeping it multi plat would make sense for Sony's live action games goal.

GTA online makes like a billion a year in revenue.

@Ken_Kaniff goes full circle.
Nintendo screws Sony, causing them to make PlayStation.
Sony buying Nintendo.

It's hilarious but extremely unlikely.

SEGA Is more worthwhile than Konami

@Americansamurai1 I would love the Order 1886 sequel. So much potential in that IP. even without Ready at Dawn, I feel it could really work under a new developer

Maybe Microsoft is buying Sega ? 😭😂😭

I'm happy to see this and hope it's applied worldwide.

I am sure there are a few scalpers out there who will remove the product and scam people with rip offs on top of overpricing the product.

If this will deter scalpers I'm all for it.

They should remake and expand Killzone Mercenary, it was such an amazing experience.

I'll be sticking to essential for the foreseeable future.

Sounds like Sony told him to reel back his comment, since they need more time to announce some stuff haha

@Martin_C I can never permanently put my Vita away, and I can't explain why. It was the best console ever imho.

Thank you Greg Miller. This was indeed mind-blowing news!

I can see Sony buying Deviation Games.
Similar to Haven, founded 2021 by former AAA devs.
Sony signed them for an exclusive game. Likely a live action, based on their past experience being with Call of Duty and Bioshock.
They recently expanded to a second team in Canada.
To me, it makes too much sense after Haven acquisition.

I'll buy it when I get my PS5

Other than the day long maintenance I never saw an issue to begin with. So this is fine by me.

Time for Sony to acquire this developer 😂😂

@lolwhatno Technically US came from Britain. So does that count?

@Rob_230 Bungie isn't a part of SIE Studios. It's wholly its own thing.

I think this is overblown by those protesting.

It feels like they hate all microtransactions of any kind and feel GT7 is the hill to die on to demand change. I've said it before. I don't expect another GT for a decade, and I bought the game with that in mind. I'm in no rush. And don't believe I'll be spending the price to speed it up.

Exciting news. When all else fails, go back to your bread and butter.

I'm surprised Microsoft hasn't tried to acquire them. They have a close relationship and the whole cyberpunk fiasco has weakened the company.

I am happy they remain independent however and hope they use this opportunity to re-establish themselves in the industry.

@RBMango technically since they don't have a game yet, they might have been cheaper now, than after the game goes live and it does well commercially? That's my logic for Sony's decision.

As a Canadian, I am happy to see more Canadian studios.

Sony must have really liked what they saw to buy them without seeing how the game does commercially.

They gave Lucid and Ready at Dawn both a test which they failed.

Housemarque and Bluepoint killed it and were then acquired.

I am curious what Haven is working on.

@MattBoothDev you can't 0/10 review a game simply because you dislike mtx and online service set up.

Graphics, game play mechanics, story mode, car modification, track feel, controller haptics.
ALL OF THAT IS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FOR A REVIEW.

At worst, even with the online component and the microtransactions in the game, giving the game less than a 7 is not an honest review. It is one made out of disdain for personal beliefs that you push on to the game, studio and the publisher. And to me, this devalues the review and reviewer.

These protest reviews only come off as whiny to me.

The game itself in a vacuum is a masterpiece.
The server downtime was unfortunate, and the need for "always online" definitely hurt the game's overall score. And microtransactions don't help either. But the overall modification of the credit layout was just meant to stop people from farming one map over and over again.
I get it, makes the game grind feel like an eternity, but I'm not gonna see another numbered Gran Turismo game in probably a decade, I have time.

Anything between 5-7/10 is reasonable. Anything below and people forget what a 4 out of 10 game really feels like. I remember and I still cringe at the thought.

I'll definetly get it later, my back log is pretty high

@Jacko11 not paying a scalper off of principle alone. I'll skip the generation if I must.

I've been dodging NBA 2k microtransactions for years. GT7 Looks super mild in comparison. I appreciate that it's not so in your face and the game allows us to earn at a decent rate.

I'm tempted to buy the wheel for this. I really shouldn't... 😅

It's a shame we will never see the sequel to this game. I like the visuals and way the gameplay looks.

@KnightRider1982 I recently bought the backwards compatible PS3, it can play ps1 and PS2 games. When I get the ps5, I can pack up my other consoles and store them, as I can handle the entire console library physically through the two of them...

@mrtennis1990 Full Metal Alchemist brotherhood is a good place to start

Looks like Microsoft outpaid Sony to keep this multiplat 😂😂

Day one for me. It's on my sister's birthday, she will wonder where I am, but it's for the best.

Do I get a platinum for uncharted if I go watch this?

People really need a life, this is just sad

I won't get my hopes up, everything non-persona goes to Nintendo
