Basedlord Microsoft (based) flexes hard on S😱ny with pocket change purchase of ZeniMax Media.
We reached out to Microsoft to comment on this news. "We were in the middle of a late night Dungeons and Dragons session when our Pizza Hut order arrived. After we counted up the boxes I realized I forgot to place my order for a large pie with black olives and sardines. I figured that, since I now had a little bit of extra change leftover, I'd use it to put in a bid for ZeniMax," spoke Satya Nadella, Microsoft's current CEO.
"I did ask Bill for a quick round of advice before I put in for the bid, and what he said boiled down to, 'sure, go for it. Worst case scenario is the partnership doesn't work out and we can just store them [ZeniMax Media] in the cloud for later'."
How will :v: respond? Discuss.

company worth trillions buys company worth millions. the market plummets. the console wars escalates. gamers on all sides are calling exclusivity deals a monopoly. games are now sold at 70$. is gaming changed forever?

If Microsoft can somehow force Bethesda to deliver a complete, functional, single-player Elder Scrolls VI, I will be 100% behind them. Until then, I'm mildly optimistic.
