would definitely break the back of some of their exclusive licensing deals.

In short, EA would have everything to gain by being bought by Microsoft.
1. Economic Stability.
2. Economic Stability.
3. Economic Stability
Microsoft also wouldn't be retarded and take the sports games off the Multiplatform format. Remember that MS is a business, and above all else, keeping Madden and other games multi-platform would make them more money.
Also they would have to re-negotiate with the major sports leagues, and I'm fairly sure EA would lose their NFL exclusiveness by saying "yeah about making games for the playstation....yeah"
Like I've said before, what you would probably see is a timed exclusive deal for the 360, where they get the game a few weeks before everyone else.
