What dirty, greedy acts has Microsoft done with their gaming division? Not much at all. This is a gaming forum, not a computer software forum.
(I hate defending my topics, it leads to needless, off-topic arguments usually but...) If you read my post, in the future Microsoft could very well bundle 360s with Windows and monopolize the gaming market. And we don't want that.And Sony could package PS3's with their TVs, and Nintendo could package DSes with their Wii's. Why don't you make a thread about that as well?
Because there's no evidence to support Nintendo or Sony would do that. Microsoft has been known to have monopolistic tendencies.
No evidence? How about common sense. Nintendo and Sony would jump on a monopoly in a second, just like any other company out there. They're not charity organizations.
Please, just stop. You already owned yourself by telling me to go buy a Mac when I own a Macbook. Now you have no logic. Sony and Nintendo can't monopolize the gaming market because they are competing against Microsoft who already has a monopoly so anything Sony and Nintendo attempts could easily be shot down by Microsoft by using their monopoly. It's EXTREMELY difficult to gain a monopoly without one already, let alone competing against another company with a monopoly already. Actually, please keeping posting nonsense in my topic if you want, it will just bump it. Microsoft dosn't have a monopoly. A monopoly requires much more than just haveing lots of sales. In reality a monopoly almost certainly wont form ever again because of improvements in technology. MS has been found guilty of Monopolazation.... http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/cases/ms_index.htm though your evidence is valid a true monopoly would require a company to raise prices substantially and be the only company in a market in this day and age people could easily buy a mac. hence is why macs and pcs are in competition with each other keeping prices as low as possible. There are many ways of monopolazation. what MS was doing, was making in nearly impossilbe for software and Hardware companies to develope for alternate Platforms. this was the Verdict for the case. http://www.usdoj.gov/atr/cases/f218300/218339.htm i guess that could work too. i have learned something new today.[QUOTE="ledzeppelin667"][QUOTE="Skippyj9"][QUOTE="Gamer556"][QUOTE="Skippyj9"][QUOTE="Gamer556"][QUOTE="Skippyj9"][QUOTE="Gamer556"]I stated that at the beginning of my post.

IBM dosn't have one either.I liked this post i made a bit ago and it applies fairly well to the topic so i will repost it.
it is a common misconception that sony,microsoft ect are heartless corperations concerned with making tons of money. in reality most corperations are made up of many decent people that want to make the company they work for the best one, they do this by making their respective product as best they can. Bill Gates has much more money than he is capable of spending but yet he does not retire. He dosnt do this because he wants more money, he wants to make his company the best one. Sony is the same way, they wanted to make the best system even though they knew it would not fair well initially with a high price tag. As far as ethics are concerned everything Sony has said or done is just to compete against other companys, it is no different than what sony and nintendo have done.
