When, in the whole history of gaming, has an acquisition improved on the company they bought?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Bethesda.

And in this case it would help reduce the Sony dominance in the market.

Most of the studios Sony bought?

Microsoft bought Bungie and that gave us Halo. Valve has bought a number of studios that went on to produce great games. Those are more the exceptions than the rule though, and I agree it usually goes poorly.

Bungie was already making Halo before that acquisition, they were just making it for the Mac.
