I get the vibe that Microsoft is just wanting to monopolize the gaming industry. You may remember back when, when microsoft was taken to court for "supposedly" monopolizing. Even though they were cold-heartedly doing so. If Sony were to fall out of the gaming industry, Microsoft would then go after Nintendo. If Microsoft beat Nintendo somehow, most likely MS would just try to buy them out. To take it a step even further, if MS was the remaining gaming division most likely we would see outrageous prices, just like all of the X360 accessories, operating systems, ms office programs, etc. You have to look outside the box to see it. This is why I wish that Nintendo and Sony were the only gaming companies out there.

 

You forget that Sony wants to monopolize the gaming industry as well. All of the major corporations who joined the console war do. Those include Microsoft and Sony. Sony started the war beating on smaller companies like Sega and Nintendo. Microsoft isn't doing anything Sony hasn't done. They destroyed Sony's near monopolistic clutches of 3rd party support. The true wealth is in 1st and 2nd party now. Remember:If Sony is smart they will keep their 1st party and not drop them like they did in the past.
