From this it follows that the Silent Hill that Dusk Golem leaked is something else, and he is also connected to Sony, according to him.

Either it’s a Kojima game or some other game.

And if Kojima also deletes Silent Hill, then it will logically become a Ps5 exclusive

Generally speaking, Silent Hill becomes another Final Fantasy for Sony, but already in the Horror segment

I assume that they all have Microsoft job titles though, so if the salary ranges change they should benefit.

Sony will pay more if needed, regardless of market conditions.

From what I understand, these deals are run by a guy who used to work at Capcom, who was very aggressive in the European side of that company.

This was my thinking as well, let’s see what happens tomorrow (supposedly it’s when the salary rise will be announced)

Silent Hill games are not mainstream like Final Fantasy series, besides the game will come to PC.

Sony doesn’t care if it’s coming to PC. Final Fantasy 9 Remake is also likely to be released on PC, right away

The most important thing for Sony right now is to move games away from Xbox

Good for them, but there are others games being developed right now that Xbox could go for that are better than a Silent Hill game. IMO!

How you can be so sure about that? What if it gets to the point where a timed exclusivity could cost them, lets say, 50 millions (throwing random numbers but apparently these deals are not that expensive). There will be a point where it just isn’t viable to keep throwing millions and millions of dollars to keep preventing games form other platforms while your main competitor is building a self sustainable ecosystem.

Well, it’s hard to argue with that.

I hope Blooper doesn’t ruin the Silent Hill 2 remake.

I’m a little intimidated by the new endings paragraph from this tweet.

Btw, being a timed exclusive title does not guarantee that the game will end up being a massive hit.

They can’t buy publishers left and right. Xbox in-house development already has about 60 games that will be released in their subscription.

Something will have to be done about this. And apparently, they just want to stuff their main studios with a lot of money. Games-services will help this, in part. And also buy third-party exclusivity.

With Silent Hill there is no guarantee that the game will be good at all :joy:

Microsoft should acquire and acquire.

Oh great, yet another one for Sony, fucking really? I’d like to see a SH on Xbox too, smh.

Look a Deathloop and GhostWire titles, one was well received by game critics, the other one was not and both didn’t sell gangbusters.

Microsoft should acquire what help them to achieve their vision and not acquire for acquire.

Well, it is to be expected that Sony will try to moneyhat everything. Microsoft does not do that so we can only rely on the first parties and acquisitions.

Microsoft acquires to get more IPs, developers and content for their platform. Considering Sony’s continuous moneyhats they should acquire more in order not to lose the content.

Yeah, Sony and their moneyhats, they do love them. But these are from a while ago. I’m hoping with MS acquiring ABK things like these will start to slow down.

Sure, but they will acquire the studios with the content that make sense to them and help them to achieve their vision. They are not going to acquire a studio just to denied Sony that content.

Probably even before the gen started and everyone and their mothers agreed that xbox was dead at the time (or close to it)

It depends. I am pretty sure there are certain IPs that Microsoft won’t allow to make exclusivve and will acquire a studio if necessary.

Again, it’s about the vision they have.
