Microsoft actually may have a shot at a killing blow at Sony, question is whether or not they want to do it. Personally I don't think it's important enough for Microsoft to finance such a blow.
Is it too early to start speculating on which of Sony's many first party studios will jump ship? and to who's side?


You do realize game console business that MS and Sony are actually major partners in the industry, right?  As a whole, their laptop / windows partnership is much more than their console rivalry.  I don't think MS wants the whole company to go down.


that may be, but any laptop maker to enter the market, and all of the rest also use windows. Sony doesn't matter in that sense their market share would be replaced by another windows laptop just made by someone else.

maybe MS wants to white night sony in the tablet/laptop/smart tv market like they did for nokia. ;)

I think a sony ms partnership would be great. not a merger by any means, but sony does make good hardware still and teaming up with ms for their os would be smart. maybe even enter the next console gen as partners. Imagine that. I dont think it will happen though. They both want ownership of the living room and I dont think they'll partner up on that level.

I'd prefer a Sony Google partnership.

That would work also. I am not a big fan of google. I think they will be having massive problems with with all the personal data they have on people. It seems to come up from time to time and i think they will get worse their business model depends on it doesn't it? MS is just the right amount of "bad" in a big corporation for me. Does sony have an android tablet or was theirs their own os?
