And here's a little bit of non-coincidental news: Microsoft, which cancelled its 2005 lineup of XSN Sports titles for the Xbox in a successful bid to get competitor EA to add its titles to the Xbox Live online gaming service, this week sold off its sports games studio. The result: No more sports titles from Microsoft. So now, even the mighty colossus from Redmond is bowing down to the power that is EA. Angry yet? Well, there's no time for that: Instead, you can just get on your knees and bow down to the EA corporate superpower like everyone else. Remember when those guys were all about promoting the personalities of the programmers who created their games? No, I don't either.
