[QUOTE="machitocaliente"]just like rare, it dsnt change anything. wii its going to be the market leader. Dreams-Visions
i doubt that this would be a small thing. can you imagine MS with exclusive rights to the top-selling franchises last gen (GTA + Halo)? talk about system-sellers. :shock:

I still can't imagine how many consoles they would sell if Microsoft makes this move. If they pushed 1.1M last Dec with Gears, imagine what GTA4 and H3 would do this X-mas. They would have NA locked with Gears 2 and GTA (City) for the future.

It's just all wierd to me because GTA series sold so many copies last generation it's hard to believe they are in financial trouble.InfamousC
It's not hard to believe when you look at how much garbage they put out every year.

I'd Much rather Ubisoft buy em. Keep good third party games coming. Also it would be nice to see 2KSports with Ubisoft going head to head with EA Sports.waynehead895
Cept EA owns 20% of Ubisoft, if Ubi gets 2K Sports EA might just go ahead and take another 31% chunk and get rid of 2K sports. Though Ubi picking up T2 would raise there price, I'm sure EA would still be able to pick them up.

This does not make any sense to me...at all.

If Microsoft does indeed go through with this, then they'll have to explain this to me:

http://money.cnn.com/2007/03/09/commentary/column_gaming/?postversion=2007030911

One company that says it's not in the running is Microsoft (Charts). Because today's independent publishers are platform agnostic - that is to say, they build games for all major systems - taking over one would result in a massive revenue loss for Microsoft, as all development would be redirected toward the Xbox 360.

"We could never launch an acquisition bid at a third party publisher," said Shane Kim, corporate vice president of Microsoft Game Studios.

ToScA-

Bill told Shane to STFU and go pick up T2 for him.

A price drop and the purchase of T2 making GTA exclusive would porbably put Sony away in the US.

My Gamespot prediction:

If unbiased to the fact it came a year later.

Gameplay: 9

graphics :10 since 360 is 9

Sound: 10

Value: 10 cause it has even MORE stuff so really 11

Tilt: 10

9.8 if Gamespot isn't biased. If they say graphics looks better and they stamp 9 i'm gonna laugh.

Biased gamespot will say since it is 1 year later

Gameplay: 9

Graphics: 9

Sound: umm some sounds seam muffled 8

valuve: I already own it so the value is 2

Tilt: 9 cause I dont' care.

And that will be the official gs score.

Then again a different guy will be rating it so this game is Foobar. I wonder if the BEST ON tag will hop over to the PS3?

Explanation for what? For doing what they feel is best for their own company instead of worrying about Sony (which I'm sure doesn't give a **** about them)? If you are worried about exclusives, why don't you take it up with Sony? They have done pleny for Sony with their games on PS1 which they never even had to support yet gave it RE. They helped PS2 all of last gen with DMC, Okami (though it didn't sell well) ect... and even gave Nintendo's exclusive to them. They have also supported the PSP when they could stick to the DS which sells alot better.

[QUOTE="Tulak_Hord"]Sony can't afford take-Two.....If Ms hasn't bought Take 2, Sony can't.Me_Ur_Daddy_
you dont know what you are talkin about, MS doesnt have as much money as you think only bill gates has it all and the executives. and they arent gonna spend their pocket money for studio acquisitions. and TC needs to stop making threads already seriously dude ugh.

Actually they do, a few years ago they stock piled 60B and din't know what to do with it so they gave half to their shareholders. Since it has gone up again and I believe is somewhere around 40B.
