Forums - Gaming - RUMOR - MICROSOFT MIGHT BUY ELECTRONIC ARTS !!!

At the moment MS is simply looking into it.

If I were they, I'd do it. Electronic Arts is weak at the moment and the newly acquired exclusive IPs would ensure 1st place in the western world.

In the end, it would deeply divide for at least two generations Japanese and Western gaming, weakening the first, strenghtening the latter, assuring MS a prospering market.

 

Huge sunken costs vs long term strategy

 

If you were MS, what would you do ?

Very old news.



Pixel Art can be fun.

Are they considering it again? Or is this a case of the slowpoke :o



This is really old news. Use the site search to find the original thread.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
