Of course not. How asinine. The amount of money MS makes off of things like Xbox Live is enough to keep them in the market for awhile.

Microsoft has solidified its brand in the gaming industry for the time being and they are going to keep staying here because it is a viable market for them. Even in the event of a large defeat to Sony this generation (which still shows no indication of ending up that way) they would simply re-up and try again for the ninth generation. Not like they can't afford to do it. Remember of all 3 companies, MS is easily the most financially sound right now.
