No worries people!!

Gebx thinks MS will purchase EA anyways..

Peter Moore goes to EA, buys all the independant developers on the market and then takes part in selling EA to MS!!

Its GENIUS!!

Maybe.

Never thought of it that way.

 Never thought of it that way because it's impossible.

 I mean, Peter Moore went to Microsoft from Sega, did that mean Sega was to take over Microsoft? ;)
Or Sony taking over Infogram because of Harrison? (god, please no)

 Frankly, Microsoft Gaming division doesn't have enough money for it. And EA being exclusive will kill themselves, they pride themselves in being multi and that's how they make money.

KH3 bet: "If KH3 comes to Wii exclusive, I will take a 1 month of sig/avatar by otheres open a thread apologize and praise you guys' brilliance." http://vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=18379

Under EA, Criterion have done quite well, and the Burnout series has not been comprimised

I reckon they'll try phase out making games on the ps3 and focus on the 360 :(

I doubt that... they'll just make sure the PS3 ports are crummy... :-/

Impossible?  No.  Very unlikely.  Yes.

 

I have to chuck at that last... MS has about $100b in the warchest.  They can fund whatever they want.
