J/k I dont think it will happen and even if it does, Microsoft might take the multiplatform approach and offer those games to PS3 and Wii users but this is very interesting on how this will play out.

| no way they lock out PS3. that is hundreds of millions of dollars that they would be losing. if that did happen, i would be disappoint to say the least. i guess you never know tho.

| yes, but with titles like Madden and the deal with the NFL would possibly cause a lot of PS3 users to switch to the the 360. If the deals goes through and microsoft made most of the EA titles first party, it would be a checkmate as far as the console wars are concerned.

Which would be a shame, since the console wars are the only reason that prices go down on these damn things. This is bad any way you spin it.

Everyone says xbox live is so much better, well it looks nicer but ps3 is free and from what I've played of both they're about equal on the game play. How someone is satisfied with having to buy 2 of the same console and that considered normal is beyond me.
