Only if sony makes the console and microsoft buys out the exclusives.
I can't see that happening... nor would I like to see it happen. MS bearly tray when it comes to 1st party games...

It would be as funny as Square and Enix joining together.
Wait, that did happen...
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

why would microsoft want anything to do with a failing company?

Seriously, does anyone want Microsoft anywhere near Sony's first party studios?
Tease.
The only part of Sony I could see MS being interested in is their game studios, but even then they are starting to move away from internal game development so that doesn't leave much to buy.
Never argue with idiots
They bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience
