Wouldn't it be great if Sony and MS got together and made the next console? Everyone wins. Sony could make all there money off the unit and games, and MS could make there money off XBL and downloads. Both companies would make more money. A lot more money (especially MS). All the high end games (assuming Nintendo goes the same route and makes a far less powerful unit) will by nature be exclusive, and thus coded better for the platform. It could play all PS1,2,3 games and all X-Box and 360 games. MS could make the dev environment, and lower costs and time for release, yet on Sony hardware, thus producing better results on a more powerful system. I bet if that thing came out, they would sell 150-200 million of them. Huge profits all around. Best of all, not only would Sony and MS come out better for it, we win.

What do you mean microsoft can not compete with sony in terms of hardware? Xbox 1 was vastly superior to PS2 when it came to power and quality. Xbox 360 had quality issues but thus far seems pretty competitive with ps3 regarding processing power. Why would microsoft spend 80 billion dollars acquiring Sony when all they need is a better Q&A.
And why would sony bother to merge and split profits with microsoft when all they need is MGS4 and Killzone 2 to be finished? :)
