I think M$ is starting another FUD shitstorm. Don't you people see the telltale signs? They are talking about buying Blizzard, Valve, and now Sega. Typical FUD pattern to try to clean out the gaming market for themselves.

My advice: Don't believe anything until it happens. When M$ buys Sega, then be afraid.

personally, i kinda doubt that sega would allow themselves to be bought by an american company. not to mention the fact that they have numorous projects in the works for other companies (like making f-zero for nintendo).

sega will likely take the same path that square did when MS tried to buy them and cut all ties with them.it's just that this has the possiblility of happening.

for those of you who don't know the humorous story of when microsoft tried to buy square, it went kinda like this. square was reluctant, but ultimately agreed to make a final fantasy game for the xbox. eventually, microsoft went to square and said "here is how you're going to be making games from now on..." and square (quite literally) threw the xbox representives out of the building. a little while later, MS tried to buy square, but they refused.

Dr. Cox; well you know what? i did...and i threw it away. But then i didn't feel like that was a strong enough gesture so i erected a life like figure of you out of straw, put my lab coat on it, put your memo in the pocket, and invited all the local neighborhood children to light it on fire and beat it with sticks!

heard it on Scrubs, quite possibly the funniest show on tv

Lack of 3rd party support and not many amazing games.

the besy way to convince someone of something is to ask them questions. for example, ask him to name 5 good games exclusive to the system. or ask him to name as many good exclusive games as he can, then just list off larger titles for ps2.

i highly doubt sega will not allow ms to buy them but if they do i will revoke everything i have ever said about sega. (i love sega and wish they wouldve continued making consoles)

everyone waste their money on xboxes!! if we all get two it will happen twice as fast!!

how about we all buy one. then right before the store return warranty runs out we all take them back. m$ would see a gain in initial loss. then whenn best buy gets a few thousand units showed up its ass it might not want to carry it at all. also tell them you simply plugged it in and it didnt work. if there was a way to break it without voiding the return policy then the store would send it back and m$ would lose twice
