It would be a wise move because this would mean that all future GTA games would be 360 exclusive (besides GTA IV).

It is a good possibility, I don't think Microsoft will buy it now, maybe in the future.

Actually if they bought them right now then it would make IV exclusive. I could see this happening. It would give them better legal backing and they really need it.

if they did, holy crap that would be huge. Assuming Rock Star wouldn't jump ship, Microsoft pretty much would just lay a sever kick to the balls of the PS3 after getting an exclusive on GTA.

Iam pretty sure that wont happen, i mean microsoft is a hkuge company and along with creating its own games it also owns Rare and a bunch of other development companies, iam pretty sure there a line you cross and your considered a monoply and bussinesses can get in a lot of trouble for monopolizing the market.

Actually, Microsoft already stated they had no intensions of ever buying take too. I read it on Joystiq, i'll find the article if possible.

Yeah also heard they did want to buy. But wish they would, it would help be the demise of the PS3.

To be honest I dont think they will. Would be funny if they did to see Sony Fanboys reaction to losing GTA, but it wont happen
