damn they have to work on something. they opened few new studios, they hire new people every freaking day...wtf? this time i believe pachter, no reason for him to say that microsoft told him that if it's not true.

i just don't get it. yes, xbox is selling decent, but with more games it would sell better. and it's not only about "hey it's selling good without many exclusives", they shouldn#t forget that they will lose a lot of xbox 360 purchasers for the nextbox if they aren't pleased. many who bought the 360 in the first years bought the console just for the games and not for multimedia. all my gaming friends and i had a 360.many sold the 360 because they got bored by the lack of exclusives the last few years. and i am not sure if my friends will buy the nextbox instead of a ps4 or only pc like they do atm, playing on pc. i will, because i will buy all three but not sure about people who buy only one or two consoles.


Most of the new hires are probably working on titles for the next Xbox platform. Microsoft may be planning on having a mass of titles release for the first year of the next console (as they are often quite spare... Microsoft are going to be competing hard for the top spot early on), which means taking a lot of resources away from the 360... which already has a large enough catalogue to stand on its own feet.
