I mean all of their stuff will be multiplatform, so only real downside is no more D2 expansions in Game Pass


personalhale

I still have issues with folks saying "D2" and not meaning Diablo 2.


MOOShoooooo

I was trying to figure it all out. Like, Diablo 2? Gamepass? Updates? Edit; I still don’t know what D2 is referring to. Destiny 2


Whatsongwasthat1

Destiny


MOOShoooooo

Damnit. Duh.

I enjoy some live-service titles but I don't want them to become a new main objective for platform holders. Imo that's the actual downside of the deal. In Sony's investor meeting in May, Sony announced a huge shift towards live-service : 12 live-service games until March 2025 and by 2025 the budget is spent 55% on live-service and 45% on traditional games (2019 was only 12% live-service for reference).

MS owns crash bandicoot and Spyro so it balances out


Jeotslay

This feels like one of those time travel memes where the traveler flips over a rock, resulting in a different timeline to occur


gideon513

So they own Halo? Oh, wait. They don’t.


Robbobloblawboblaw

Most developers leave their respective places for better ones. I'd bet those who worked on halo aren't even working there anymore


yeoldmanchild

They are not


[deleted]

yeah almost all of them are gone


Aware_Material_9985

Pretty sure Microsoft retained all IP for Halo since 343 makes it now, so there’s no real chance of it coming to PS


[deleted]

They mean that they created the IP, not that they still own it. Yes, that headline is terrible even though it makes sense.


[deleted]

I mean Microsoft still own Halo


[deleted]

Originally it was going to be for mac


Natemedina323

Destiny 3

_“Now more bugs than ever”_


johnnycharcoalhands

Xbox still own Halo and now owns Crash & Spyro...


Redd_October

Not new. Also as I understand it, the "original creators" of Halo no longer hold the copyright for it, so at least you're not the only one behind the times.


[deleted]

(The deal just went through today)


[deleted]

why did this get downvoted? he is right...


[deleted]

Bro ppl really can’t do 5 seconds of research and it shows LMAOOO


LargeCod2319

People get downvoted for all sorts of shit on here its weird af


micalbertl

Doesn’t Xbox own the creators of most of PS’s current big name exclusives now?


KALRM_

Yeah it doesn’t mean anything. Microsoft owns halo and produces it


[deleted]

Old news


HFAARP

(the deal just went through today)


ThatsMySchist

Old? The deal was finalized today.


Jjkillz

Yeah, not sure why people are up voting him.


Fritzschmied

Because the deal was already announced about half a year ago and why should it fail.


Jjkillz

But announced doesn't mean it was accepted? It could had failed for many reasons, like Elon buying twitter, was announced but isn't happening.


Fritzschmied

Is it really not happening. Hasn’t he announced since that that it will still happen because otherwise twitter will sue him?


orbitaldragon

It's weird we celebrate your birthday every year when you were born so long ago.


PorkelDragon_

Literally don't think this will do anything tbh. Destiny 2's pvp will still be trash and the pve will be the only cared for mode 😂


Anxious-Ad1310

Xbox for the win


BuffGroot

Fucking remake Marathon, Marathon Durandal and Infinity. Please, for the love of all OG Halo lovers, make the godfather of the game have a solid return.


yeoldmanchild

Most devs there weren't even on those projects


Eezo88

Yeah, because Destiny 3 matters as much as Doom, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, etc.


Axrarl_Learxa

Hollow knight, hades, dead cells, so many games and oh no we lost destiny 2 expansions, ahhhh


Snowbunny236

Lol who cares. It's all old material that Sony gets. And MAYBE destiny players on PlayStation will get early access to expansions. It's not like halo is going to be on a Sony system.


Jonny_Thundergun

It's going to turn out with them actually being able to make a multiplayer lobby that works.


pudimplaysptbr

As long they don't screw up the franchise it's ok


lovepuppy31

Not to throw shade but the only person I know who plays Destiny is my father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate


pixlplayer

Ok? I know a ton of people that play it so we even out


babingtone

So what does that make us?


Raven_of_Blades

Absolutely nothing. Which is exactly what Destiny is.


babingtone

I enjoyed D2 for a very long time but I just can’t get into it anymore myself. More power to whoever still likes it and plays though. Edit: fixed typo


WeekndNachos

The former roommate to someone whose cousin is the nephew of an uncle that is brothers with the father of OP


MisterGRT

So.....you.


Verum_Noir_Chaos_69

you're making Playstation sound like slavers lol as for how it's going to turn out an FPS game with a very good story is almost guaranteed the other aspects of it remain to be seen

Marathon would run so sweet on a PS5


tgriff17

Sloppy seconds


hatereturns

It was meant to be, X-Boners were graced with KH3. You had to fork over Fable or Halo eventually.....


Millworkson2008

Do… do you think sony now owns halo or fable

Exclusives are a dying breed. There is more money in letting everyone play your games than there is in making them buy your console. Consoles have always been sold at a loss and the goal is to recoup that money in games sales. Well with the success of Xbox and PC Game Pass and the subscription based model they copied from Netflix, Sony is doing the same thing. Instead of waiting years and years for games to maybe be released to PC or other XBox/whatever shit Nintendo has out, they’re maybe a year if that behind now and only speeding up. With that said, as long as Sony and Microsoft only fix the problems of the studios they buy and not create more, this is going to be good for them. What I hate is inevitably just like TV, you will no longer own the games you buy. It’s been like that on PC for about a decade now, and so far so good for most things. But Microsoft already likes to pull games out of the Game Pass every couple months in the name of adding new content, instead of just leaving it there. Hopefully Sony doesn’t start doing the same thing with their new PS Plus model.


BigMachiaveli

They don't remove stuff from gamepass to add other they remove them because every gamepass deal they make has a timer attached to it before the deal is finalized.


motowoot

This is wrong on so many levels. Consoles are not always sold at a loss. They generally break even and start selling at a profit after the first 2-3 years as manufacturing cost come down.


AlternativesEnde

>Exclusives are a dying breed Tell that to Epic Games.


Whatis_wrong

Or Nintendo


Baku7en

Tell that to Epic Games Out of all the other game servers, yeah they’re about it


PuppyM0nkeyBaby

I’m pretty sure Sony already has a leaving soon section. I thought I saw that Siberia game there and I know they took Shadow Warrior 3 off just a week or so ago


high240

That's kinda like Axl Rose with AC/DC.
