So basically thats 3 new 1st party studios created or heavily expanded in the past 2 weeks?

Sounds like MS is getting very serious about investing and expanding their internal games development, which is awesome news for gamers everywhere!

Well the gamers that like Kinect anyway, us PC gamers feel rather left out since they closed Ensemble. 

Well the one studio said they aren't working on a Kinect game and the other one is rumored to be working on a core Kinect shooter.  Not sure how good a Core Kinect shooter would be but I'm certainly open to trying it if it works good.

But I feel you on Ensemble.  I was litteraly heart broken when I found out they were being closed, I must have played thousands of hours of Age of Empires back in the day.
