Microsoft buying SEGA rumours again!!!

We all saw what happened with Zenimax going to team green and "other consoles on a case by case basis".

People are split with some saying either:

*all the games are still coming to PlayStation 5 (Xbox benefits from permanent gamepass access and on day 1 of release) since "Microsoft has abandoned exclusives entirely" supposedly.

*other say Microsoft are using the Sony playbook - take games hostage and keep them away from the competitor, keep games only on Windows, Xbox & Xcloud (except switch).

*with others expecting a case by case implementation of these two extremes, or perhaps something a little different to both.

How do you think a prospective SEGA buy out could impact Games we love?

 

As a person who is a fan, of some of their cool sega games, I really hope that rumour is not true.

 

If that rumour were true, that would suck.

 

People are theorising that the Phantasy Star 2 Online updates, are all due to sega being financially sponsored by Microsoft. Interesting. If those rumours are true, I wonder what Microsoft gets out of it? Exclusivity for sega games on Xbox Series X?

 

Yeah true. The Japanese, just like the Chinese, would block and never allow strange foreign countries like the US, to buy their iconic companies or ip's. Doing that would be sarcrilege to them for lots of reasons.
