Now that I've calmed down a bit, Microsoft are a bunch of idiots.
1. Ensemble Studios was a great studio. The Age series has sold over 20 million to date, resulting in a lot of profit for Microsoft.
2. First they let BioWare and Bizarre get eaten up by larger publishers, killing their second party, then they let Bungie go independent (though at least they're still second party), then they ignored Itigaki when he became a free agent (no more NG or DOA, but at least they could've gotten something else from the man), and now this.
With 90% of all third party titles going multiplat (almost 100%, if you count timed exclusives like Eternal Sonata), this is a horrible position for MS to be in.
