I hate this whole Microsoft is using it's money and bully boy tactis to beat down Sony. As if Sony is a small company. They're a multi billion dollar conglomerate! Remember what Sony's money did to Sega? Paybacks a bitch.

What did Sony's money do? If I remember correctly poor business skills and idiotic development costs are what ran SEGA into the ground

Well, that's what run Sega's past consoles into the ground.  Dreamcast was actually their best console and was doing well (comperatively to the Sega Saturn and 32x).  But PS2 came out and well...that was that.

Would Sega have lasted even if PS2 wasn't so successful?  Probably not next to consoles like XBOX and GC (which both would have done even better without the PS2 there).  But the fact remains that the PS2s monumental success pushed Sega out of the Console business.
