Sony + Microsoft !~?!

Seriously, it's not like you have a bia$ or anything.

While I think it's highly improbable I'd love for them to work on a console together. "Competition is a good thing." my ass, you know what's a good thing? Getting all the games I want on one system and never having to worry over what version to get based on who has which console ever again.

Though I think it's highly unlikely they're referring to game consoles here I think they could make a beautiful console together.

how immature... you should know better than that.

competition in the market place is a great thing. but if Bs and Sony work together to make a console, it's not like competition will disappear all together from the market.. i mean there's always nintendo's ol punk ass.... right?

and if they put all your games on one console guess what? they have a monopoly.. they charge you whatever they want for whatever they want. you will have no say in the matter. if competition is there... you then have a say..

something like:

"oh, your console is super expensive, i'm not buying that. i can buy this one and it does more or less the same thing! FOR CHEAPER! so you need to step your game up."

isn't that fun? but with no competition.. guess what it's going to change to..

"fuck no, i'm not buying no damn super expensive piece of crap... but i want to play some damn video games... need to play video games... fine. i'll buy super expensive piece of crap.. you bastards..."

true story. now +1 this, cause you know it's the truth.

Please. Having a competitor did not stop the Ps3 from launching at 600 dollars, having a competitor doesn't stop the 360 from charging for online gaming and having a competitor does not stop console games from costing 60-70 dollars. There's already a monopoly forming among publishers. As for my say I own both consoles already and nobody cares what I think because they're trying to convince me to give their 3d and motion control experiments my money (but let's face it it's not my money they're gunning for) instead of focusing on games.

You can say "okay now think of what your playbox 4000 will cost!" but there is a realistic ceiling to how much they can charge and still turn a profit. Execs from both sides have said that they're pushing that limit now when asked about launching the next gen. And they still have to deal with piracy, publishers, phones and pc's. What's more, having only one console would lower production costs. That results in lower prices, less buggy games, more publishers, a boon to indie development and more experimentation.

Anyone who thinks that PSN is even remotely close to being on par with XBL is... there are no words.

That said, I don't want this because I like to hear people yell at each other over stupid things like entertainment machines.

Not that this is ever gonna happen, but if it did I wouldnt say there would be no competition. It would give old comp a reason to come back since there would only 1 bully to deal with this time. Can you say Dreamcast 2? Of course it would get curbstomped again but hey :D

Now that I think about it...nope. Xbox players can stay where they at.

The online experience on PSN can always be improved.
