Realistically, what is the biggest franchise that Microsoft can buy out that would give them first place in console sales?

Microsoft already has three big blockbuster franchises. Halo, Gears of War and now Minecraft. However, I don't think this will be enough for Microsoft to be first place. What franchise could achieve this? I think overall, only COD will be able to do this. Maybe GTA, but that isn't a yearly title.

Nothing. Period.

 

One game does not make a console #1

FF7 made not just the psone but playstation as a whole..

LOL are you crazy?!  It wasn't the CD player, GT, Spyro, Crash (Which was a more recognizable mascot than Mario for a year), Metal Gear Solid, and the 1 year head start it had on the N64?

Hell GT was the best selling game on the PS1, not FF7.  Does anyone around here actually fact check anything they say?
