Google and Amazon about to ruin gaming.

A new report claims Microsoft, Amazon, and Google are all actively seeking studio acquisitions.
The report comes from Brad Sams, a journalist with a track record of accurately reporting Microsoft-related news ahead of time. "I’ve been hearing a lot of conversations behind closed doors about acquisitions in the industry. There’s a lot of moving things going on right now," Sams says in the video below. “ It’s hard to see which companies are going to get snatched up and by what vendors… but I can tell you there are some big industry names out there being approached by Microsoft included, but then you also have Amazon, and you also have Google," he continues.
Sams goes on to add that Sony is very much part of the group pursuing studio acquisitions, but nowhere near as aggressively so as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. The journalist also names EA as a publisher going after new developers to acquire, as with the recent Codemasters deal.
2020 saw the blockbuster purchase of Bethesda by Microsoft, in a move that saw the latter acquire a number of Bethesda-owned studios, including Arkane and Tango Gameworks, among others. More recently, Nintendo purchase Luigi's Mansion 3 developer Next Level Games earlier this month, a noteworthy move from a publisher that typically holds off on acquisitions.
According to Sams, we've hardly seen the end of studio acquisitions by big-name publishers. If the claims are accurate, we could be seeing some big-name purchases throughout 2021.
imagine a company like Naughty Dog being bought by Amazon and then half way through the game they try to offer you Nathan Drake clothes with 1 day shipping
None of these bother me because all the games from the studios will buy will still go to other platforms. And I don’t see them buying them really doing much to the actual product Google and Amazon probably just buying to make sure games are on their cloud gaming platforms.
Sony is the only one that would keep the games on just PlayStation and not even release on PC and if they do it’ll be years later.
Gaming heading in a pretty s***ty direction just like all forms of entertainment. This just another example of worse things to come tbh

Most of the video game studios people care about aren’t gonna be acquired by them tbh because they already owned by another mega Corp lmao
need these companies to be split up and burned
My first thought lmao need to bust ALLLL these big tech companies up into itty bitty pieces

All because greedy rich people are taking over industries. Back in the day, video games were made by geeks that wanted to make dope s***, now a days its all about the bottom line and churning out stuff as fast as possible. The people in charge of game releases and content don't even play games
Same with music.

I'm more talking about PC. Microsoft releases games on PC and Xbox if it's exclusive. Sony holds it to just PlayStation.
