      I’m a Xbox fan and honestly I really don’t mind Sony buying Bungie since Sony lacked first party multiplayer shooters. Most of the devs that worked on halo retired or moved on to another studio

      What should they shake over? They bought only one studio which is worth 3.6 billion, if they bought something with value like EA or Take Two or any publisher with many studios under it’s umbrella then they could have a reason to sweat

    Even more crazy when you think about that Bungie developed the first Halo originally for Apple Mac

    I think they did it because if Microsoft makes call of duty exclusive then Sony can make halo Sony exclusive…it’s just to even they playing feel….Maybe Sony should by rockstar
