Bungie is now officially part of the Playstation family

It was the ‘clapback’ that saw a whole new phase and resignation of the so-called console wars. Since Microsoft/Xbox acquisition of Bethesda, Sony Playstation ‘response’ has been not as dramatic as it has been tongue and cheek. And we are not saying this was an actual retaliation to Microsoft, but you can’t help but appreciate the optic.

Sony Interactive Entertainment has officially completed its $3.7 billion deal to acquire Bungie. And with Bungie being the studio behind Destiny and every Halo game up to Halo: Reach (all X-Box classics) you can’t help but appreciate the irony.

The agreement to acquire Bungie has closed. So now we can officially say… welcome to the PlayStation family, @Bungie! pic.twitter.com/x5jVmelaxl

The name of the game is consumption, so would not be surprised to see bigger scale acquisitions like this happen in the future, with Sony and Xbox at the helm for most.

But what do you guys think. Great for gaming. Or has a monopoly ever fostered growth in any industry?
