MSFT/Xbox
x/acquisition?
<p>Oh, look - he's posting something *on* topic,
lol. Read this Forbes article pointing out a lack of
exclusives for MSFT vs. PS4, altho I'm not sure it's that
convincing an argument.</p> <p> <a href="
forbes.com/si...a37848">forbes.com/si.../a> </p>
<p>Personally, I decided on buying the Xbox One X in the end,
and despite being more than twice the price, I think the eye candy
is worth it.</p> <p>But read another, more interesting
article, (I've lost the link - think it was Games Radar perhaps)
that said MSFT is hungry for exclusives, and the 'rumor' is that
they may be in the market to take over .... there were 3 names -
PUBG, Electronic Arts, and...the 3rd one escapes me. Over time, for
every 20 serious acquisition rumors perhaps 1 has come true. If the
rumor was more convincing, I'd start wondering whether EA was too
overpriced to take a stake in - it probably is, given the inflation
of vg company prices (altho I do recall Jester saying the sales are
not so far away from justifying such prices - but that might've
been some $ ago). I remember the day when Jon was holding a *ton*
of TTWO and the surprise take-over bid from EA came in at
$25/share, and he sold it all immediately for near that price. I
want to be Jon on that day.</p>
