    This is what the writer of the Bona Fide Reviews, Brent Kirkwood , asked. Kirkwood thinks Microsoft will take advantage of Sony's financial woe."I personally see this happening regardless of the Blu-ray market by 2014. I for one can just see the looks on Sony's main competitors faces at this time, all the gleaming in the world coming from One Microsoft way ( the road both Nintendo HQ and MS HQ reside on) as this could turn out to be the largest upset in consumer electronics history," he says. "Will the next Playstation... post-PS3 run a Microsoft operating system and have backwards compatibility for PS1 PS2 PS3 Xbox and Xbox360?... this doesn't seem as far fetched as it once did."

    Personally, I don't believe that Sony will give up their company to their most rival company(Microsoft) even if their PS3 or Blu-ray fail.

    If sony's ps3 fail's sony wont fail. Sony dosent make just video game consoles. They make computers, steros, movies. Sony cant fail. Microsoft can't fail. They will always be competers.

    I don't think so, there will always be a market for both sides.

    No.
    Go look at Rover, one of the biggest car companies in the world and they went bankrupt. It could happen for Sony, maybe even for Microsoft. Although Microsoft has a much better chance simplt because 99% of computers use Microsoft, and not 99% of homes use a sony product. Microsoft could buy Sony, but it won't be until the are in a lot more trouble.

    It happens, Adobe bought Macromedia and Macromedia was a major company.

    I dont know, Sony does make all those other things other than games. But Microsoft is bigger than sony, they make consels, games, computers. I dont think microsoft will be successful in buying out sony

    I don't think that Sony would sell it to Microsoft.

    You are a retard!
    Seriously now...chances of Microsoft buying Sony are slim to none.
    Sony sells other stuff beside consoles(as few people already stated) + their console(PS) has lot of exclusive hits and will probably get more...soooooooooooooooooooo,Sony going bankrupt is "Mission Impossible <insert random number here>"
