Following the major success of the PS4 and the failures of the Xbox One, there have been many jokes on Microsoft. At times, the joke can get too ahead of itself and evolved into a speculation.

The latest suggests that Sony will be looking to purchase the Xbox brand from Microsoft. However, this is unlikely to happen.

Jesse Dicnich slams the speculation calling it simply ridiculous. The vice-president of Insights and Analysis for Electronic Entertainment Design and Research revealed that Sony can’t afford to purchase the Xbox brand. On top of that, the Xbox is not for sale.

If gamers are able to recall, all of these started with the comments made by Forbes contributor, Adam Hartung. The lad has made some hate-like comments to both Microsoft and the Xbox One.

Even though PS4 is more successful, Microsoft is richer than Sony

One being richer than the other has nothing to do with Sony making an attempt to purchase the Xbox brand.

Nintendo is also loaded but they ain't buying either of these two anytime soon.

And is this even news?
