It surely has to be near the bottom of the list of all mainstream consoles released ever... It's a shame as elsewhere in their gaming division, they're doing a lot of things right! Hopefully the newly acquired studios won't be infected with the same apparent Microsoft curse... |
Crackdown 3 took them 5-6years to develope, so there really isnt a excuse here.
However from what I remember hearing, MS is looking to be the netflix of gameing...... ei. pump out constant content = short cycles for game developement (for gamepass). You cant make master peice 90+ metascore reviewed games in 2-3 years, which seems to be what MS is aiming for.
I dont have any hope that things will improve much next gen either.
MS current way of doing things (even if games score in the 60's) is makeing them alot of money from xbox.
They will likely continue doing so in future, just with more studios there will be more games.
MS is going for quantity > quality.
