Sony PS5 2

[x Tame Impala]

IF Sony buying FromSoft would give that studio some more more $$$ to beef up their graphics and detail that would be great. I'd be too worried they'd torch the creativity of that studio though. That would also be pretty whack if they bought it and made FS games PS Exclusive.

At this point I'd be happy if console exclusivity went away completely. Nintendo is an exception because their hardware and game design is much different than Xbox/Sony/PC.

Halo possibly being on playstation would be great because it would mean a ton more people playing Halo. I just wish there would be equal concessions from Sony towards xbox. I was gifted a PS5 earlier this year but I otherwise never would've been able to enjoy TLOU 1 & 2, the Spiderman series, etc...Hopefully we start to see less and less exclusive games going forward

If it increases the chances for a Bloodborne sequel from 0% to even 5%, I'd say it's worth it

Still haven't played Bloodborne. Waiting for the alleged remaster to experience it for the first time with some beefed up graphics.

From is a drop in the bucket within Kadokawa.

I didn’t even realize this would be a manga and anime acquisition. Even worse, considering how trash anime has been since Sony swallowed up crunchyroll and funimation.

This would be the death of dark souls, and probably Sony.

I actually think Microsoft has the right idea regardless of how they’re hurting in the short term. Gaming right now is going away from games and into ecosystem. The new generation doesn’t care about consoles or even games, they care about where their friends are. They hit the mark with helldivers, keep tinkering there.

Aside from that, Sony would destroy from soft with their corporate nonsense

Sony have a much better track record about buying studios and having success than a company like Microsoft.

From seems to be able to do whatever the f*** they want. Rebooting Armor Core instead of just pumping out more Elden Ring stuff, for example. Or the rumors I've seen are that their next game is not Elden Ring 2. So I definitely get the worry that new ownership would ruin things.

But at least they already have a relationship with Sony and it resulted in one of my favorite games ever. So that's at least a good sign that they would stay out of the way.
