Yeah, Microsoft did wonders with Rare. Plus the xb1 is poopie. Not to say the PS4 is record breaking hardware, but at least it can almost run games at 1080p.... almost.
Capcom open to buyout

It can definitely run games at 1080p, the reason for the discrepancy at first was because of bad dev kits. Bungie themselves said things have improve, especially with the power freed from Kinect, with Destiny being in 1080p.

Nah, the problem is that the console was already out of date when it was released. It just doesn't have what it takes. Neither does the PS4, but the point is that exclusivity on xb1 is going to lower the overall quality of the game. And, once again, I cite my reference to Rareware. Even if devs could somehow make games with excellent resolutions, consistent 60fps frame rates, more advanced physics engines, more objects on screen etc; Microsoft still can't release good, "3rd party" games. They just gut the companies they buy.

Yeah, because Sony does so well with the companies they buy. Look how well Zipper Interactive is doing... OH!!!

I don't give a shit about Sony, we're talking about Microsoft here right? Sorry if you assume that I'm a braindead fanboy, but unfortunately I am not so you're going to have use some actual, relevant information here if you're going to convince me that Microsoft buying out ANYBODY is a good thing for the company bought. And no, exclusive titles are not a good thing.

Because Capcom going the way of THQ and Microsoft with their unlimited money could save them from that.

That still does nothing to show why Microsoft buying them would be good. You could make the same argument if McDonalds bought them or something.

Because Microsoft would bring their dead projects to life, that's why we have Dead Rising 3.

History begs to differ, since they basically strangled Rareware to death.

Microsoft bought Rare for $375,000,000 and they all they got in return were underpreformers. Combined all games they made only gross $100,000,000, little more than a quarter of what they were bought for. That's why they had them make Kinect Sports, because that game sold.
Dead Rising 3 sold 1.2 million on Xbox, more than 1/5 of the userbase owns the game. Microsoft simply allowed Capcom to port it to PC. They hold the publishing rights to the game, having funded its development. That's why you'll never see Dead Rising 3 on PS4.

All I want is for squeenix to purchase breath of fire, update it to an active combat system like star ocean, and create BoF generations with a story that brings together characters from 1,2,3.

Yep, they did just those three. Ages/Seasons are still my favorite Zelda games to date.

Minish is my fave handheld, not so keen on Phantom Hourglass/Spirit Tracks after it though.
Still, it proves that IF Nintendo bought Capcom, which I doubt, it ain't all doom and gloom.

I would like to buy Capcom

Why do people want Nintendo to buy Capcom? I don't want all Capcom games to flop on the Pee U.

The same could be said for Xbone.

No, Dead Rising 3 was a huge success on X1.

That's because it was the only game worth playing during Xbone launch.
