They just started a new team in San Diego rumored to be working on an Uncharted game.
Also nice failed thread. Sony has proven studios that create AAAA masterpieces. You expect Ninja Theory, Undead Labs and Compulsion to do the same? Lol.
They already have like twelve, and games to already show for it. It's nice MS got some studios, but it don't mean a thing until we can see that output. Which, for Microsoft studios has been something of a challenge so far.
They acquired 4 and created 1. Studios like Naughty Dog, Guerilla, and Santa Monica are already significantly larger than any of the ones Microsoft just bought so I don't think Sony is behind them in any way.
I don't really approve of buying out studios unless it is saving them from the flames. I know all of these companies do it, but creating new studios creates more jobs and ADDS something to the industry. Buying existing studios doesn't do much for any of us except (and this is a real bonus) if it saves the studio from going under or gives them a ton more resources to do what they are passionate about doing.
Sony already has the twice the amounts of own studios then MS, no need to be alarm because MS has a lot of catching up to do.

Your first post was the definition of Salty...
You fell for his trap!
He got you good :P
I always play him because your guaranteed to always get something from him.... some of the other Lems have started to wise up now and they're no fun :(
Sony is fine studio wise and didn't they jut open a new studio recently? I thought I remember them opening one not to long ago. BTW it was very important for Microsoft to open and acquire those studios. There development talent the last few games has been on the pretty shitty side, but I am excited to see that they are trying to fix it now.
Sony is an exclusive machine right now, and it is really Microsoft that needs to play catch up.
They need to acquire studios that specialize in multiplayer aspects too. I would like to see some games that I could jump in with friends and have fun together. Exclusives that have an active online multiplayer community and gives you a reason to renew PS+. I mean their story driven single player movie games will always be there but I think they're drifting too far from the social aspects of gaming. Their recent games been good but they're one and done, after you play them a few times, there's really no reason to jump back in. They're pretty much rental games. Hopefully we'll see a new Socom, Star/War Hawk, something.

To be honest, Ninja Theory is actually pretty good. They are close to AAA. With MS high budget they might just hit the AAA level, but we might not see anything from them til next gen!
As silly as the TC sounds, there can never be enough studios.
Sony are lacking in a few areas like strategy games and space combat. They are sitting on a load of IP's they could reuse. I wouldn't even mind if they started making some of their less popular stuff multiplat to make it viable.

Ninja Theory did, with Hellblade. And Enslaved was pretty awesome too.
MS just acquired 5 new studios, Sony needs to keep up.
Also they need to announce NEW exclusives like Bloodborne 2 and whatever.
Eh?
Anyways do you know the story about the hare and the turtle, If you do then you know that just because Microsoft suddenly became a hare, does not mean anything.

Not everything needs to be a system seller.
Actually there's a such thing as having too many resources. Adding more studios and more people doesn't mean better quality and higher quantity projects. You'll have a lot of people sitting around wasting time and money. And if they start pumping out too much too quickly, they'll end up saturating the market, which means other smaller studios who put in just as much work won't be able to make up for it in sales.
Sony has plenty of studios. Some of them just need to start using a different toolset. All their devs are basically copy and pasting each other at this point. How about a game that doesn't consist of 90% walking, crouching, or hiding in grass. All in splendid third person perspective with wack camera angles.
If you looked at all their first party games over the last few years, without knowing anything else... You would think they were all made by the same studio.
