Sony buying Bungie for $3.6 billion [gamesindustry.biz]

Regulators should be on high alert especially following Microsoft's proposed ActiBlizz buy that we may find ourselves with just two to three companies owning everything in the #gaming industry which is not healthy.

@joe Epic, Tencent, Embracer, Valve, Take Two, Ubisoft, EA… these would not all be particularly easy to buy.

@igmp_join But I do feel Sony Microsoft, and Disney or Amazon would have the power to buy all of them if regulators allow it.

M&A's I can see happening assuming regulators approve Microsoft and Sony's deals:

Sony buys Square Enix
Microsoft buys Sega/Atlus
Apple buys Rovio
Amazon or Disney buys Nintendo

@joe one of my friends suggested Netflix would want to buy a hardware platform, like Nintendo
