The funny thing is, MS seem to have run out of blank cheques in 2009.

Good thing this is a net forum so you can type - since your mouth seems to be busy right now.

Im not sure i quite agree with that.. the fact of the matter is that SONY is underdog this generation.. and underdogs usually perform well on the software front..especially in the 1st party department. Eg. dream cast/sega

M$ probably finds it easier/cheaper to buy exclusivity for a game than to buy an entire dev studio.

something sony cant afford right now.

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

owner of : atari 2600, commodore 64, NES,gameboy,atari lynx, genesis, saturn,neogeo,DC,PS2,GC,X360, Wii

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business
