People have too much "conspiracy theory" type stuff as to why Microsoft entered gamming. Ask anyone on Walstreet what the word on Microsoft was in 1999. They were saying that they were "saturated". No longer a "stock growth" that they used to be. Microsoft needed to be involved in other markets so that they could expand. They looked around at markets where companies had "near monopolies" and decided to compete in it. gaming against Sony and MP3 players against Apple.
