Broken hearts incoming

 

[SJRB]

I refuse to get hyped over this.

I REFUSE.


MUST.

RESIST.

HYYYYYYYPPEEEE

 

[BoxFresh123]

Can't imagine it being acquisition related personally given how recent buys have been announced without any rumour build-up

 

[Swift_Star]

Whatever, we'll know when we know.

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

One thing is almost sure...it's something Japan-related if it's coming in a few hours. It's like 7am or 8am in there right?

 

[ANIMAL1975]

 

[DAHGAMING]

Fuck sake, how am i ment to sleep now, i need to sleep but the soyboy side of me will keep me excited for this gaming news that will most probably let me down.

[kingpotato]

Couldn't be worth getting hyped about if it's not an announcement for an announcement for a reveal.

 

[MasterCornholio]

Weird he's giving a time span. Guess it won't take long for the pitchforks to come out.

 

[ethomaz]

I will make a tweet now... PS5 news are imminent.
Boom I become an Insider

 

[nero2082]

From Soft welcome to the family

 

[Yoboman]

Spartacus reveal

 

[skit_data]

Weird he's giving a time span. Guess it won't take long for the pitchforks to come out.

He's using in words as "could" and "not 100% sure when" to save face should nothing happen.

Get your Shea Butter out lads/ladettes:

 

[tmlDan]

the internet would melt if they acquire from soft, let alone all of kadokawa

 

[aliadiere25]

Knack remastered!

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Bla bla bla

 

[kyliethicc]

Knack 2 Remake Baby!

 

[Tiago Rodrigues]

Sony would own anime entirely and even manga lmao.

 

[Kilau]

Will Smith is joining the cast of Grown Ups 3.

 

[El Pistolero]

Nothingburgers, as usual. People work themselves into a frenzy because they are addicted to dopamine boosting video games news, rumours, speculation and hearsay...

 

[skit_data]

It would problaby be the only thing to get Will Smith and Chris Rock off ny twitter feed for a few days.

 

[Bragr]

The stuff Sony is gonna buy is stuff that Microsoft lets them buy.

 

[jm89]

You mofos never learn. How a mans podcast delay has become acquistion talk.... Alot of these guys just feeding of that.

 

[Bragr]

It would problaby be the only thing to get Will Smith and Chris Rock off ny twitter feed for a few days.

Where do you stand, did he do right to defend his hairless wife or not?

 

[Moridianae]

I've never known Sony(of any region) to drop a bombshell in the middle of the afternoon/evening US time.

I grow very weary of these "insiders" hyping up things that amount to not a whole lot in the end.

I mean, what could be so megaton that it drops at such a weird time? Is it even a megaton to most of us?

Only thing I could think of would be an acquisition of Square, Capcom, or whatnot, but those aren't really leaked.

Maybe it's they've acquired the Konami IPs?

 

[Fbh]

Ah yeah "my source isn't 100% sure".
A.k.a "let me throw a guess out there but it's not my fault if I'm wrong"

 

[Goalus]

In Japan Sony has pretty much free reign.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Big gaming news at 7 pm est? Ok.

 

[Muddy]

Definitely looks Japan related cause of the timing as someone mentioned above.

 

[tmlDan]

Damn, Will is about to derail this thread too lol

 

[skit_data]

Anyone slapping someone else for that pretty bad but still harmless joke needs to pull themselves out of their own asshole IMO.

 

[Mr Moose]

His source is reading the Greg Miller thread.

 

[Muddy]

Maybe Japan related. It's morning there.

 

[Chiggs]

So, the sources I have (yes, I have some connections in the gaming world) are saying it's about From and something about Capcom and possibly Konami.

The current confidence level is hovering around 20-30%, so find a GIANT grain of salt and don't wager any money you can't afford to lose.

Edit: Sorry, not From, but Bandai-Namco.

 

[Esca]

Doubt

 

[lh032]

never believe all these "fake" hype by twitter journalist.

 

[Hinedorf]

Get your Shea Butter out lads/ladettes:

Came here for a low hanging fruit salt reference and left with an education on salt

 

[ShaikhCroft]

I definitely need to post a fake news of similar kind to my twitter to boost my twitter account. Damn those attention I will get will be worth!

 

[Zeroing]

Sorry but Sony postpone all the exciting news because of the Oscar's "slap" drama!

They feel the internet needs a few more day to calm down from the tons of Will smith's slapping memes!

 

[Shanomatic]

According to my sources, Sony has acquired Square Enix.

Effective immediately all projects are cancelled and all teams will be put to work on the Balan Wonderworld extended universe.

 

[ManaByte]

Sony bought Ember Lab.

You know, I actually thought about that when I saw all the memes in the morning.

Edit: just saw your edit, so you're not joking.

 

[ahtlas7]

Sony, I'm Ready to sign up if u make it valuable.
Don't. Mess. Up.

 

[Chiggs]

Edit: just saw your edit, so you're not joking.

I'm really not.

Again, I have some friends in the gaming industry. These aren't SVPs or anything, so your mileage may vary.

I don't have a blog or podcast, so I'm not really trying to stake my reputation here, either. I am relaying what I have heard secondhand, and the value of that information is not what I'd call solid gold.

We will see what'll happen, I appreciate you sharing. Doesn't really matter if it turns out to be false. Not doing any worse than others lol

Guess I will find out in the morning, but all the companies you said have close ties with Sony, so it makes sense something could be happening with them, especially as Sony have money in their pocket to spend before april.
