If they were to buy one, I would think they'd buy an independant company, it'd be cheaper =P

Well, I would much rather Microsoft buy Ubisoft rather than EA buying Ubisoft.

I dont see Bill Gates selling MS. But I do see him wanting to buy Sony and Nintendo. But I dont see it happening.

ubisoft

or take-two

I can see them trying to buy Take-Two or Rockstar. Can you say, GTA exclusive? Mr. Gates can... ;)

I don't know much about Capcom, but Ubisoft is a public company....anyone with enough money and strategy can buy them out.

I don't want them to buy any companies because I think strong competition brings out better games.  But strategically, Capcom bould be an excellent company for them to buy.  They'd never sell, but Square would be a good strategic fit as well.

None. Last thing anyone wants is MS to gain more options for a monopoly.

No. Hell no. Eff that. I don't want my games to cost $100 because Microsoft pretty much monopolizes the market. Sure, theres Nintendo, but if Microsoft owns itself and Sony, does Nintendo really matter? O_o

It would be interesting to see all of the fanboys start mass suicide groups over Final Fantasy becoming exclusive to the 360.....
