Nothing like announcing you’re doing the biggest studio acquisition in video game history just before your new console goes into pre-order, eh Microsoft? Wow! In case you missed it, Microsoft acquired Bethesda for a cool $7.5b USD. Yeah, you read that right. It seemed to have fanned interest in the Xbox Series X and S as the crew chats about the trials and tribulation of managing to pre-order the console. After all of that, Amazon figured it was the right time to announce their gaming streaming service named Luna.
