I think Phil Spencer is the best thing to happen to Xbox.

As far as I know though the first party aren't taking too many creative risks though. Black Dusk sidelined their new IP for Gears of War, 343 are the Halo factory, Turn 10 are Forza. Not sure who are working on Crackdown, the series had a lot of raw potential, hopefully there are some unique co-op/cloud features.

Signing up Platinum is a genius move, especially getting Kamiya to direct. He played a key role on Resident Evil, he was mentored by Mikami before going on to direct the sequel. He created Devil May Cry, Okami and Bayonetta amongst others. Platinum also seem happy to make games without owning the IP and Microsoft could do with a stronger catalogue of exclusive franchises.

the gears thing though happend before phil took over so not much he can do about that.  as for crackdown the og creators studio is making it so its in good hands.  and phil seems to be more then willing to bring back the old ips they have
