I don't particularly like linking the sites I go for my PSP homebrew (and neither do the mods, being on good terms with SONY and what-not)... but THIS article comes to mind...

Come on Forza indeed, I feel a partnership - at least in the hand-held business, seeing as MS has no plans for a console there - might be brewing!

Quite frankly, if this is true... well, I fully expect Forza portable to be amazing.

Got it MS? A-MAZ-ING.		2011-07-15 06:19:00

Forza won't leave Xbox. They also won't make a cheap cash-in like GT did, because Turn10 make good games, unlike PD who spend 5 years making something average.		2011-07-15 13:42:00

And how is that a "cheap cash-in" exactly?		2011-07-15 17:22:00

re: sony/ms domain names: Sony = great MS partner. No scoop here, this was just a defensive domain hold. Let's move on to weekend, kay?

Due to the fact that they couldn't even be bothered putting a career mode in, or anything that resembles one, for a start.		2011-07-16 12:00:00

Pft, only n00bs have the crappy So-soft Xstation 1080s, I'm totally sticking with the Micro-ny PlayBox 4.		2011-07-16 12:09:00

There is a difference between "cheap cash-in" and "missing feature". A cheap cash-in would be more like releasing practically the same game every year with minor diferences.		2011-07-16 13:48:00

Have to disagree with this I'm happy enough with the current format of the 'career mode' in in GT games. I just want a list of events for me to get into and race, not interested in much else. With the constant updates too that keep bringing in new events for XP and money it's pretty great.

Saying that, the format of GT5 is weaker than the older games, ignoring the newly added events. I always loved the way GT1 had everything set out. Was messy but fun.		2011-07-16 15:27:00

No... They won't end even if Ms & Sony combine. Mostly because we have yet to see the Wii U.2011-07-17 15:23:00

Remember when Sega still made games consoles?
*sigh*

For my money - the Dreamcast still holds the title of "Greatest Console Ever Made" ...

Now we're NEVER going to see Shenmue 3 		2011-07-17 16:16:00

Although when you look at it, the XBOX had alarming similarities!		2011-07-17 17:44:00

Interesting that the guy doesn't consider that the benefits of a slightly improved console are far outweighed by the dangers of a market dominated by a single product with no direct competition (Wii U would be closest, but I doubt it will really target the same demographic)... Which would be hellish situation for both consumers and developers.		2011-07-17 21:32:00

If they did make something together I wonder what it'd be called? PlayBox 720-IV? 2011-07-17 22:47:00

Even if all consoles combine, there's still the PC vs console thing, and even if those combine, people are probably gonna find something else to fight about anyways, gamers are violent people, its in the nature. 		2011-07-18 00:42:00

All I know is this: if Sony and MS do partner up to make the next console, then there will be a LOT of flame wars between the gamers (PS and Xbox fans).2011-07-18 06:40:00

So basically, everything will stay the same as they are now?

Would this new console get the Orange Ring Light of Death (ORLoD)?		2011-07-18 06:46:00

How about Orange Light Of Ring Death (OLORD). The abbreviation itself is a perfect reaction! 		2011-07-18 22:19:00

Maybe Microsoft and Sony try to accept their differences and unite to create a linkning between PSN and Xbox Live?
Maybe It could be the network used for their new console!
