Theres a difference here in what your saying.

your saying sony helped out Square, and sony is on good terms with them and can perswade them to do things, or have square do favors for them. bascially manipulate square.

yes, thats all fine.

What im saying is LEGALLY. a measily 19% stock or whatever it is sony holds of square DOES NOT let them control square or tell them what to do.

your talking about other things now besides just the stock ownership.


about the 3rd party stuff. Theres more to it then make for more consoles = more money. A lot more. They have to factor in the cost of recoding it for the other consoles, and the cost of making a ton of copies for that console when they all might not sell.

Right now i agree with you that exclusive 3rd party games are rare. But where i disagree with you now is that the Market will not support 3 consoles well for long. prolly all this console gen maybe some of next. but one company will have a fall out eventually down the road.

As for such advance hardware. i havnt seen any game on any 1 system that cant be done on another. ITs all amatter of coding it right. Some might need slight graphical drops in some area's but they might boost up a bit in others.

And i already said things change. i dont know why you keep on about that theres nothing to argue about.

Except i cant seem to remember a time when sega ruled the gameing world. when ever was this? i remember when they did well during the Genesis time. but never ruled....

Sega master system........ out done by NES.
Sega Genisis........ Some say it did better then SNES some say worse then SNES. But by no means did either of the 2 "rule" the other.
Sega CD flop
Sega 32X flop
Sega Saturn Flop
Sega Dreamcast. great system, shame it was just struck by bad luck. wrong timeing, they should of waited and had it compete directly with PS2.


But i see no time at all when they "ruled the gaming world"
