"Games are what gamers play. We build these platforms and services to deliver the best games to gamers everywhere, so we need a great supply of first party teams. Bethesda nearly doubles the size of our first party studios, meaning the studios that build games as part of Xbox, and we're still out there looking for other teams. It's important that we have a continued supply of great games for our gaming subscription and platforms."

Wow after that Bloomberg report that japanese studios confirmed that MS has approached them about a buyout this thread has gone from shitposting to kind of legitimate speculation lol

Phil did an interview and refuted it.

There is no hope.

Worst. Launch. Ever.

He said they weren't buying any Japanese developers. What if he already bought them? That would make them American.

CONFIRMED BY PHIL SPENCER SEGA ALREADY ACQUIRED, ANNOUNCEMENT THIS WEDNESDAY!

 

[Jaguar Victory]

Phil said he's not out there hunting. He said he has established relationships. I took that to mean that if he's making a purchase it won't be random but someone they already work well with.

but Phil always lies! Hope is back.

Green background? What could this mean?

 

[Orta]

I'm slowly beginning to think this might not actually happen. Going to give it one more week and I'll report back here with my conclusions.

I don't know how it was in the US but in Australia you would get up to this point of complete hype and they hadn't subbed any further.. So following Monday they would reboot the entire DBZ series from first episode and watch through the entire thing again until more where available

This exact thing happened in Brazil with DBZ and Saint Seiya. So. Fucking. Annoying.

In Canada DBZ was run on YTV. It took years to get to the end on the Snake Way ark, then the Episode where Goku shows up to save everyone at the last second was episode 1 instead despite the previous episode including "in the next episode" showing a delicious taste of Goku wrecking shit.

It was also a heavily censored version of the show so it kind of sucked anyways, but it was the best we had up here.

Good Lord. It's a fucking nightmare.

[Lionel Richie]

ARE WE READY TO ROCK LADS?

 

[BusierDonkey]

I've noticed I haven't seen any more concrete evidence that Microsoft is acquiring Sega in over a week now guys. I suppose it can only mean one thing...

Spoiler

SEGA KNOWS WE'RE ONTO THEM AND ARE DELIBERATELY HIDING THE EVIIDENCE! THE PROOF IS IN THE ABSOLUTE LACK OF EVIDENCE!

 

[Maxwell Jacob Friedman]

 

[Kimahri]

If Microsoft does end up buying Sega, I hope they announce it on thursday just to fuck woth you guys.

 

[NecrosaroIII]

Does this mean that all future Total War games will be on Xbox

 

[Bwesh]

As long as Sega keeps releasing on PC, then I'm cool with this.

 

[Fat Frog]

 

[Neko Mimi Mode]

 

[oldergamer]

Why do they keep doing this?

 

[YukiOnna]

Why do they keep doing this?

Because it's going to be announced next Wednesday.

 

[Orta]

I've just returned from the future and nothing has been confirmed.

Wednesday fortnight on the other hand....

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Honestly, this is the best thread to have been created on GAF. OP is banned but his spirit lives on here

 

[GinSama]

Every week is like the deal is getting done and done....

And yet every week nothing happen. And they still tease.... bastards.
