Microsoft has practically bottomless reserves of cash though, because of its monopoly position with Windows and Office. In reality it could purchase any third-party game developer it likes, even Konami or Capcom; analysts say Microsoft is almost "willing" to lose $20 billion in the Xbox line.

Microsoft always acquires third-party technologies, puts a Microsoft stamp on them and sells twice as many. You know that touch-screen table? I bet it wasn't designed by Microsoft. Halo? It was a planned PC and Mac shooter by an independent company before it was acquired.

 Lol, I remeber that! When bungie first started ot making games like Marathon, they were all Mac, but Microsoft saw the Halo trailer and released that would be great on their system, they bought bungie for a disgustingly small amount if I recall correctly.
