Hello gentlemen and gentle ladies,

Its time for another Weekly Geek podcast full of wonderment, unicorns and screwed up Swedish Goths.

If you want to remain relevant you need a mobile powerhouse. MS got Minecraft, maybe King soon, T2 got Zynga, EA got Glu, Tencent got most of the other big ones.

Sony is likely looking for one too or they will be left behind.

Sony already owns the #2 highest grossing mobile game ever in Fate/Grand Order.
That game is close to Genshin Impact levels of monthly revenue.

Lifexline379d ago

Well angry birds still makes money so it’s not a dead horse. They just need another hit.

Angry Sonic, Angry Tails, Angry Amy, Angry Knuckles, Angry Chaos....

Lifexline379d ago

Lol yeah you would be surprised at what could sell. I could see it.

porkChop378d ago

Angry Taxi might actually work.

blackblades378d ago (Edited 378d ago )

Looks like something MS would grab. I wont be surprised some how ms gets Sega with this included magically.

We could fund more games like Sonic Mania

We could buy the music rights back to Sonic 3

We could reboot some old franchises like Ristar, Shinobi, Gunstar Heroes or Golden Axe

...Nah. Angry Birds it is

Wait, have they even made anything since then? Thought they were a one-hit wonder lol.

darthv72379d ago

I didn't know they did a bunch of stuff prior to Angry Birds:

Pretty much everything since has been a spin off. Now maybe Sega will make Angry Chaos or something similar.

FallenAngel1984378d ago

Mojang only made one game and Microsoft still purchased them for $4 billion

Sometimes one property is all you need especially when it’s lucrative

MadLad378d ago

Angry Birds fell out of relevance years ago, but whatever they want to do lol.
