Report: Tencent raising billions to buy EA, Take-Two, or others
Tencent is reportedly raising billions on a debt offer and may force hostile takeovers of a U.S.-based company, possibly Take-Two.www.tweaktown.com
tangentially political and we dont have a general gaming news thread. God knows if a western company/consortium ever stepped in to try and buy Tencent, the chinazis would just say 'no you cant buy our company'. Also I might kill myself if this isn't just wild speculation and Tencent actually acquired Take-Two.

i don't really care if anyone buys EA, they are a dumpster fire so pouring more gasoline on that can't really make it worse. Oh no, Madden 22 will have chinese spyware. all they'll learn is american kids are retards, which is not a state secret
Buying Take two would really suck though, afaik they own Rockstar - GTA / RDR. Grand Theft Auto Shanghai would be hilarious though, finally a Sleeping Dogs 2

How many years has it been now? Same with Elder Scrolls and Starlink and or whatever that was supposed to launch. I remember they showed a teaser for both of those in 2017, not shit since.

Eh, Bethesda's MO is radio silence until a game's ~six months out from release--honestly, that they did any sort of announcement so far out is more unusual for them than the fact that we haven't heard much since then. Wouldn't be utterly shocked if, now that next-gen is now out on the market, they actually properly show off Starfield some time this year.
TES5, yeah, that one's miles off.
