How did Sony get hold of Naughty Dog again?
I've no idea, but it doesn't really change my point which is its a shame Microsoft have just been buying up studios to fill the gap in exclusives they have, rather than setting up new studios with new IPs. I get that is much more of a risk and harder to do though and understand why they're doing it from a business perspective. Still, sucks.
Here's a hint, they bought them. Just like they did with Psygnosis (RIP), Insomniac, Bend Studio, Sucker Punch, Guerilla, and Media Molecule.
Maybe they should have spent that money setting up new studios instead...
