A reader is worried about Microsoft’s purchase of Activision Blizzard and suggests a merger between PlayStation and Sony to counter it.
Would you like to see it? I don’t think I’m the only one that had plenty of misgivings, when hearing that Microsoft would finally be completing their purchase of Activision Blizzard. I’m not sure exactly how it’s going to help their business, given Call Of Duty isn’t exclusive, but I assume they didn’t spend $69 billion for nothing. I’ve seen a lot of people say that Sony would do the same thing in their place and I’m sure that’s true. But Sony aren’t in their place and never will be.
Sony lacks almost any family friendly games, especially ones that are popular, and yet that’s Nintendo’s speciality so there is a very obvious synergy there, with little overlap. None of Sony’s first party games are similar to Nintendo’s and yet I feel there is a lot they could learn from each other, and share.
