Well between Microsoft and EA being the presumed front runners, I'd go Microsoft.
They're still a monolithic evil corporation, but they've seemingly learned to let their 2nd party studios actually develop games after ruining Rare.
Obsidian, for example, is releasing that interesting-looking 'Grounded' game, and they also purchased Double Fine, which will hopefully put Tim Schafer in check.
Plus, it'll be virtually guaranteed we'd see PC and Steam releases of whatever titles they publish instead of having to deal with any console exclusivity BS.
It is like MS saw Sony's bid for Leyou and Warframe and thought, "Hold our drink," while eyeing AT&T's high asking price for WB Games.
Stop buying crap studios, you're worse than Epic.
