I don\'t really see what they can do. The only things that will boost there sales figures are a MASSIVE price drop, a lot more AAA games, none of which spring to mind (although i am poorly educated when it comes to XBOX release schedule). Maybe they could make it a bit smaller too ;)

I am quite worried about Microsoft throwing around monney. We\'ve seen it with Halo and we will see it again. If MS can\'t win like that, they might buy their victory.

I dunno how they can win a battle (MS).

All their rats jump ship and get seats with big time competitors!

hmmm don\'t think they got enough to buy Sony. Don\'t know what they\'re worth but I will be surprised if MS could afford such a purchase.
Besides nor Sony or the Japanese in general would allow an American company, especially MS, to buy Sony I think hehehe.

Rick,

Microsoft is a huge company, but there is no way they could buy Sony, unless they want to end up in a life time of debt.

Sony is a huge company, they own alot of media companies as well, Colombia Pictures, Sony Computer Entertainment, Tri Star, Sony Pictures, Sony Music, Metreon,  and many more companies, I think MSFT wouldn\'t even think about trying to attempt to buy Sony.  Also Sony owns there on broadband company in Japan, Sony is a huge company, most of the things they own are in Japan!

I remember a poster at the IGN boards last year posting all the companies Sony owned, it was like 15 or 20 of them I think, I will try to get the list later.

Sony, much like Microsoft, is virtually impossible to purchase.

Microsoft could purchase Nintendo, but it would totally kick their bank account\'s ass.

Yeah, ok, but I\'m sure they could afford the PlayStation enterprise. I very much doubt sony would give it up tho. Ignore me from now on :D

Sony is a conglomerate. As a whole, Sony could buy MS and still have money left over. But that will never happen since a lot of the companies under Sony are autonomous (to a point).

EDIT : This didn\'t come out right. What I meant to say is that although Sony could buy MS, they\'d have to sell off all their other billion dollar companies. And....that will never happen. Polyphony Digital being sold off? GADZOOKS! NEVER! :eek:

I\'m sure Microsoft would love to buy Sony Computer Entertainment, Inc.  but I doubt Sony would let a division like that go for purchase.
