Doesn´t MS has a really strong stable of Firstparty exclusives now? The Forza games usually sell around 4-5mn each, Halo around 10mn each, Gears around 6mn each and Fable around 3-4mn each. This is a collective potential of about 20-25mn sales for each iteration of their franschises, quite impressive if you ask me :).

Depands how you factor in the massive marketing Ms throw behind them and bundling.  ex Forza gets massive markleting and bundling, its sales could be seen as dissappointing given how much a push it actually gets.  

Agreed, and it is always more difficult to generate big sales in the beginning of a generation. It all probably depends on how heavily the bundle Forza for example (which they usually are quite good at doing with that game).
