What do you want MS and Sony to do? | |||
| Merge. One console to rule them all. | 91 | 30.95% | |
| Stay seperate. I hate one... | 104 | 35.37% | |
| Cross play. No merger, just some partnership. | 99 | 33.67% | |
| Total: | 294 | ||

I would like some Sony exclusives otherwise, yeah I don't really care for this at all. But at least it will be Sony+MS fans vs Nintendo fans. Would be brutal in the forums :)
It's just that simple.
I long for the day that consoles are like DVD players where I don't have to worry about if a DVD plays or not. Just buy the system and have access to all games.
Probably it's more of an Xperia / Vita / Windows 8 tablets thing.
I'd be really surprised if there's anything to do with consoles and wouldn't know what to make of it.

It sounds good but
There would be no more reason to start the gen with a loss leading high tech console to get marketshare. Blu-ray players started at $1200, for a long time the very expensive ps3 was the cheapest blu-ray player.
1st party games will slowly disappear. We already have a system like this, the pc. How much effort is MS putting into pc games nowadays? Does Sony even have any pc games?

I have a feeling this is just blown out of proportion and just wishful thinking ;p |
You could be right, but there's this: "There will be dramatic revelations that will affect the entire industry." The source is refering to the gaming industry not the computer industry.
I would like this rumor to come true, mostly for the massive shitstorm it would cause around the Internets!
Signature goes here!

Sony has movie studios. It seems like they make most of their money with media now and days. So I don;t see they dropping their first parties. MS still releases the occasional PC game; Fable III, Alan Wake, and Age of Empires some somewhat recent examples. Having overpriced prices at launch is one thing we might not have in my scenario, but I can live without them.
sony has the better 1st party infrastructure, ms has the better OS infrastructure,
sony has a movie and music business, ms has lots of other media relationships
sony has psn+ and their gaikai acquisition, ms has windows integration
sony has vita a tablet, ms has smartglass and surface
sony has move, ms has kinect
..i dunno. a smart integration between the two could be awesome. i'd be a bit worried by a lack of "competition" but overall i think i'd be happy to see MSony team up. it would be certain to be a vastly better console than the wii U.

Surprisingly yes. Twisted Metal 2 and Jet Moto were put on PC back in the heyday. Plus all those games from Sonysoft like Lion King.
they already are, my proof: Peter Parker using bing instead of google in the latest spiderman movie
Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.
