Xbox Acquisition |OT5| Talking Exclusively About Xbox Acquisitions

Bruh, what happened to Roblox stock, that has went down a lot too since the start of the year

No, Sony could not afford them. But if they fall below a certain threshold, Sony will be able to afford them. I mean as soon as they became lower than 5b, Sony gained the potential ability to acquire them. Especially Square Enix, it might be too enticing for Sony. Though Microsoft should get them if it is possible. It solves too much problems for them at once.

Electronic Arts is still too much.

Oh wow, from 80b to 25b.

I just was mentioning EA stock has been going down, never said Sony could afford them lol

Honestly wouldn’t be shocked if Meta/Facebook made a move on that

As if Meta does not have enough problems with government regulations. Add to that Roblox’ issues :joy:

they were one of the companies in talks to acquire activision so I doubt they would back away from roblox…escpecially when that could be a perfect game to start building the metaverse up from

Well Bobby asked them but Facebook was not interested. The problem with Roblox is of a different thing - rather than company’s issue they have issue with not paying content creators or something. Not sure.

I mean all facebook needs to do is set up a proper revenue cut there and we don’t know if facebook wasn’t intrested since it was labbled company A, B, C ect. in the press release or whatever its called given to shareholders in hopes they vote yes to the acquisition

I don’t know if their was much reason to mention this but Take Two stock has also been going down, that being said they are also off the table until Zynga has gone though

Yeah, until merge is complete we have no way of knowing the market cap. But yeah it fell to 16b.

that isn’t what I was refering too, I meant they couldn’t be acquired until that has gone though in general. But when it has, I think their market cap will be high 20 billion to low 30 billions

I wonder if Netflix will go further with gaming than just mobile games and competition with Apple Arcade…A lot of scenarios considering the potential fight over subscribers - as the companies pivot to gaming in order to retain and get more subscribers.

Like let’s imagine scenarios like

  • Netflix + Gefore Now (or maybe Stadia, but they need some gaming content 100%)
  • Amazon Prime + Luna (with Ubisoft+ content after Ubisoft acquisition)
  • Disney+ & EA Play (after Electronic Arts merge)
  • Apple (they seem to be able to do both TV and gaming by themselves)
  • HBO Max + WB Games (already kinda via Discovery merger with HBO Max + Discovery for content)

Then it leaves Microsoft that has only gaming subscription. They are (and Sega) currently partnering with Paramount (and some content is on Amazon Prime). It might be not be enough so either Microsoft + Discovery acquisition or Microsot + Paramount would be interesting options.

Rather have Microsoft go after Discovery first then try for paramount next .

Netflix should buy telltale IMO, its a match made in heaven

what merger?

Time to buy stocks before they go up

Just a theoretical thing. Disney owns ESPN and imagine ESPN + FIFA/NFL integration + all those Star Wars games that EA is making. Match made in heaven.

yeah but EA would cost like…$50 Billion, it wouldn’t be a cheap acquisition by any means, does disney really want to do that. They are still in debt from fox

But that’s why I am talking about a merger. Not an acquisition.

I’m down with Disney and EA.

someone will need to explain the difference because I heard activision was merger with microsoft

Gotenks vs Perfect Cell
