This is certainly the first time we've heard of any sort of collaboration between these two companies. It seems some eagle eyed users have picked up some strange new domain name registrations by the official Microsoft domain name registrar. Could this be the start of a new console partnership?

I don't think MS would do this. Think about it. MS has the 360 and Sony the PS3. Why would they combine? Nintendo isn't that big of a threat.

What kind of drugs are you on pal?
There are 86 million wii's out there, 55 million xbox, 50 million ps.
Nintendo not a threat? Nintendo's done a great job of trouncing both its competitors and has a FAR bigger "piece of the pie" than either other does.

Don't know about that. Sony has the best games.

Wait a second, you're telling us that the cheapest console outsold the other much more expensive ones?
