Microsoft Registers Domains Microsoft-Sony.com and Sony-Microsoft.com

Intriguing domain registrations happen all the time, and they’re generally for “just in case” purposes, but Microsoft recently registered a few intriguing domain names that are so intriguing, one can only hope they go beyond the “just in case” scenario.

A member of NeoGAF spotted the domains and verified them with a whois search. The two domains? Microsoft-Sony.com and Sony-Microsoft.com. More interesting than some random Microsoft-Xbox-bunchofnumbers.com, right? Piki Geek points out that Microsoft and Sony have partnered before, so in all likelihood, this domain probably isn’t the unified console the gaming masses have been wanting since the dawn of time, but probably more something in line with the Windows Phone or Blu-ray. We can dream, though, right? Of a world where we get to buy less consoles but still have all the games? Sigh.
