    yeah, because why make more money when you can just drop out for no reason whatsoever?

    logic. this makes none.

    And what a glorious day that would be, ShadowGuard.

    I kid, I kid. I don't see either Microsoft or Sony dropping out anytime soon. Really the only way I see something like this coming to fruition is if one of them launches a totally new product they hope to be a console replacement, some sort of all encompassing media device for the living room that happens to play games. That or one of them will shift their operation over to a cloud service like OnLive or Gaikai, but the market for that is so small for now that I don't really see it.

      cloud gaming is too new, OnLive is several years ahead of the curve. its not gonna catch on in force until everyone has fast, really stable internet, which i dont see happening for 4-5 years at least. the last thing anyone wants is to be playing a single player game and suddenly be logged out because their connection dropped.
