perhaps killing the competition, or in this case, outspending it, to where there's only one option available, and you're being gouged for a product that used to cost half as much as it did before.

Today, Activision.
Tomorrow... EA?
Next Year... Take Two?

Like someone else mentioned, it's going to go the way of Disney and it's aquisitions of Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, etc.

Let me ask you... are you a satisfied Disney customer? I can tell from your comments on the Movie/TV board that it's seriously lacking for your tastes.

This comment makes sense in a gaming context if you're talking about Sony, not Microsoft.

Or maybe Sony will partner with a developer and make a competitor

And much like the Movies and TV Board, I end up playing a lot of quirky indie / small studio stuff rather than major releases because I am not a fan of overhyped shite I won’t play while it is the next big thing.

Last thing I remember buying as a preorder or on release date was an Arkham Horror game and that was because I loved the board game version.
