Ouch looks like you have problems with reading comprehension.
Obsidian didn't need to be bought at all. Look from the article you posted no less. Lol.
"Obsidian Entertainment, developer of 'Fallout: New Vegas', almost shut its doors, but the successful 'Pillars of Eternity' Kickstarter campaign saved them."
Successful kickstarters already saved them and gave the studio freedom ...
If it was game only that's $300 million revenue. But there's GoW bundles so add in PS5 sales 500,000 launch week plus a new controller for GoW thats probably another $300 million. So probably $600 million in revenue for GoW launch.

Cool which publishers did Playstation and Nintendo buy again?! Or right neither have. It's absolutely 💯 idiotic that Nintendo and Playstation in recent years have bought studios and you think that should allow Xbox to buy like 30 studios at once as if they're the same. Your logic sucks. Take off your fan giggles makes it easier to see.
You make it seem like Playstation unfairly made their series popular. Just look at Unchart...
"It's still a double standard, don't you think? Sony is untouchable when it comes to single player narrrative-driven epics. There's really no replacement for the likes of Uncharted and GoW, and everyone who has tried to imitate that success has failed financially. "
Sorry your take on this being a double standard is absolutely 💯 idiotic. Playstation built up Uncharted from nothing. You do realize the first game 1st month sales were like 50,00...

You do realize that Uncharted 1st month sales wasn't in the millions right?! The 1st games sales in the 1st month was only 50,000 or so. If that was Xbox/Microsoft they would have can...
Wtf does GTA and Fifa even have to do with Activision Blizzard and COD? Sparky can't stay on topic and grasping at straw in desperation.
"All of those sales are nothing compared to COD/GTA/FIFA."
And yet Xbox with those games isn't any closer to Playstation. Must bring you to salty tears. Lol
Kk which company bought 20 studios in a 5 year span?! Or a publisher as big as Blizzard? Oh right no one. You're just talking out your behind at this point just like Nadella. That would be 2 big publishers in that span. There's not a single company out there that has purchased 2 publishers like MS is trying to
Well Sony Music arm did buy the studio that made the Fate Mobile game which had over $5 billion in revenue and is the 7th highest earning mobile game so I wouldn't say Sony neglects mobile games.
Agreed. They aren't protecting the industry at all. They're insulating themselves to have regular gaming revenue to report against losses that's all They're doing.
Just consider the lies Nadella and Spencer are spewing. Nadella just said recently they are 'not a conglomerate', uh saying that doesn't change the fact they are. Spencer says COD will be on PS6, PS7 etc, but, doesn't want to put it on paper?! Okay just got to trust the wor...
Well at least Playstation and Nintendo release new products and actually do compete. What exactly is Xbox bringing to the table?! Rolling into year 3 with so little its embarrassing. If that's your idea of 'competing' your an idiot.
Buying something that is already available on the system isn't adding or changing anything because those games would have been on Xbox regardless. Just garbage logic there
You do realize Sony owned the Fate IP and made Anime series for it since 2006 right?! They didn't even do the mobile for Fate till 2015.
Sonys subsidiary Aniplex bought the mobile phone company and why wouldn't they? The game earned $5.4 billion for them the majority of which is from only Japan. So this isn't some mass global game like Candy Crush

"And they have yet to make a Zenimax game that's exclusive. They even honored in-place deals. I'm not sure why people are still thinking they will pull COD from other platforms. It doesn't make sense to from a business standpoint. Same reason they didn't do it with Minecraft. Microsoft is even saying they won't be doing it. So what more commitment do you want?"
Explain why Starfield and Redfall aren't coming to Playstation then?! Spencer h...

According to Nadella Microsoft isn't a conglomerate now!
“Microsoft isn’t a conglomerate, I want to be very clear. It’s not about sort of gaming here and productivity here.”
Guess he doesn't know the meaning of the word. Unbelievable he even suggests that.
Nintendo and Playstation make new IPs regularly and have a regular infusion of new 3rd party IPs too. Just wait till 2024 when new games come out for Xbox then you will one of those hypocrites that goes oh look at all these new IPs by Xbox studios.
Seriously you cherry pick annual titles as examples, but, when it comes to the millionth Forza, Halo or Gears you guys come in about how much 'value' Gamepass has.
But the idea that this game couldn&...
Yeah we have his word. Then it's simple put it on paper! They don't want to commit by putting it in a legal document suggest he's lying. Just go to court and see if you can win ANY case when someone says something, but, doesn't sign any documents. The first thing they will ask is why is there no contract?!
Yeah the same people that say Gamepass is the best because it offers MORE variety. But talking about Playstation and Nintendo? Oh no MORE options by having BOTH the big 3rd party Multiplatform, 3rd party exclusives and 1st party exclusives is bad?! Weird I always thought getting more options was better? Silly me.
Hey your game system offers the ability to watch blurays, streaming services on top of gaming. But why MORE options is bad?! Where's the article arguing...
Its not the side. You guys are suggesting basically having more options is a bad thing. Which absolutely 💯 is idiotic. Do you play ANY 1st party games at all? Is the answer yes? Then guess what it's probably the difference in why you bought your console.
Pretty sure you didn't buy your console to watch blurays, Netflix or anything else. But you know what? Being able to do those in addition to being able to game is great. Having exclusives to go along...
Cool. So having more variety by having all those multiplatform AND exclusives is bad? Weird I thought MORE options being available was a good thing?! Pretty sure you and a bunch of the usual pack suggest Gamepass was so good because of the variety it offered?!
So the 'majority' play Fifa and yet I hate sport games. See how the majority doesn't matter here?! Your taste might ACTUALLY include 1st party games too! Getting MORE options is good.
...
Wow. Talk about absolutely idiotic spin there. Playstation offers the best of BOTH in a lot of 3rd party exclusives, all the big 3rd party multiplatform AND 1st party and now the excuse is say 95% are the same?! So what?! You know what's better than 95%?! 100%.
The edge here that differentiate why you buy Playstation and Nintendo platforms is that you can get everything AND more. You're the same people coming here and saying oh Gamepass is so amazing because l...
Yeah I would fight for this deal too if I got a severance package that was like $200 million dollars.
