i hardly think that is appropriate he maybe throwing his money around but how do you think sony got into the market. He isnt beening greedy he is just trying to get the biggest foothold, he is also not a bastard he is not doing anything that most business men wouldn't. No i dont think he will buy squaresoft partially because of the fact sony would have to be pretty stupid to sell it, sony are also do well enough not to need to sell there shares.

its true microsoft aren't dominating but you need to watch out for somone that desperate to get into the market, and lets face it he has tried very hard to get a hold in the market that is dominated by two extremely well known companies such as sony and nitendo, sony also aren't a push over when it comes to size, sony has though got too larger product mix and seems to have over diversified.

microsoft will be trying to take nitendos place just as sony set to knock out sega, which they did, they also through money around and aquired companies, so you cant call bill gates greedy. And by calling him a bastard it makes you sound ignorant and naive and a little jealous.

im sure you meant it as a joke, but some people dont find certain things funny

im not offended, and dont really care but you should be careful what you say.
