karmageddon28 02/08/22 8:54:20 PM #29:	Honestly, in the long run, it might be better if Sony didn't get into a buying frenzy just to match Microsoft. Instead of buying up studios, they put all that money in new IP development. They take a long look at all the complaints people have about the existing franchises, and develop new competing games that actually address the issues people have complained about for years. Develop a FPS that fixes the complaints that people have had about CoD, develop a big budget RPG to rival Elder Scrolls, etc. If they do a do good job, gamers will pick them up, and Microsoft can't poach it away. <cite>karmageddon28 posted [p:962480711] in If Sony bu...
