Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazooie, Too Human, Crackdown, Infinite Undiscovery, Ninja Blade, Shadowrun, N3 . . .

It doesn't really make any sense how these new IPs turned out bad. Too Human devs made Twin Snakes and Eternal Darkness. Crackdown devs made GTA. Rare made . . . games that were very, very good. Tri-Ace made . . . well, okay, but the other devs made good games. From Software made crap until Demon's Souls, and at the same time Ninja Blade wasn't so hot. FASA made the glorious awesomeness that is Mechwarrior.

Is it just me or does MS have some really bad luck when it comes to new IPs sometimes? Ya gotta feel bad for them. On the flip side, they terminated FASA and Ensemble, let Bungie go, got rid of Bizarre, and made the largest blunder this gen by letting BioWare slip. So maybe its just bad management.

At least they still own the rights to Mechwarrior 5, which will be > all things next year. Unless it comes out 2012, in which case it'll be = to Bioshock Infinite.

Yeah, it's become obvious that there's more to making a good game than just rounding up some great devs. Can't say I know how MS has been handling things behind the scenes, but hopefully they improve on this.

OT, I can't see them announcing anything big for 2011 that'd appeal to me, but, whatever. I'm fine with Gears
