investments are always positive but MS's history is not helping. No more Bungie, Fucking up Rare, Closing Ensemble, losing the partnership with bioware and Team Ninja. This generation started good but ends like an dissapointment, not only in the amount of exclusives but also in the quality of the exclusives except turn ten;..but they are cursed and have problems selling their game. |
Bungie left, but a lot of the halo team stayed, so no harm. Rare makes more money now than they did before kinect. Ensamble was a money pit, A 200 man studio that made only rts games and all of their other stuff got canned. Bioware was not worth buying with pandemic, EA paid almost 1 billion for them and they still have yet to recoup their costs. Team Ninja Imploded, that has nothing to do with MS. How is turn 10 having trouble selling their games? They constantly sell 4.5 million copies of their game. Forza 4 came out against way more blockbusters than Forza 3 did and still managed to sell 1 million in about a month and a half.

Frank O'Connor, Chad Armstrong, Vic de Leon are the only ones from Bungie, you also had nathan walpole but he is gone...So 3 = a lot?
Why should I care about Rare making money? They did not made money when they made all those awesome N64 games? Again don't care that Ensamble lost money and Halo wars didn't do that bad. For a gaming perspective Bioware was worth buying for me, Team Ninja should have been bought considering DOA/ninja gaiden were strong IP's... And turn ten sell mostly of their games with bundles even now Forza 3 is bundled in Europe. Without bundles their games sell 1-2 million not that great especially not with all those great reviews and hype..

half of sony IP's would be lucky to sell 1-2 million. Thats is pretty respectable number considering the fact GT has owned the Market for racing games and Forza has managed to get some appeal. DOA/Ninja Gaiden were good games i bought DOA 4 and Ninja Giaden 2 and plan on buying Ninja Giaden 3. There games still come out on Xbox so why does it matter? Sure they would be better off if they bought them, but the didn't no real loss to MS. Ensamble studios didn't do much except loss money. I would rather MS buy out Epic games or Remedy than waste there time with Team Ninja and ther IP's
