Man. The creative minds and innovation of Sega backed by Windows str8 cash would have created the greatest force in gaming we have ever seen.

I dunno about that. Microsoft has better companies to make games than Sega. In fact I think they've surpassed Segas potential to draw dollars by a large amount.

Only if you're thinking Microsoft in 2013 Vs Sega in 2000/2001.  Back then you'd be hard pressed to find a better game developer lineup than what Sega had.
