Every company pushes lots of software out for big franchises. I only did 2 Sony franchises here but I could have done several more, not to mention multi-plat games and Nintendo games. In fact Halo in general has had longer between releases than really any game franchise its size. Every single game has had a great score on Metacritic, fantastic sales, and a huge dedicated fanbase which request more. Anyone in this thread claiming MS is "milking" needs to really stop kidding themselves.
