Microsoft may be turning away from consumer products and Amazon is looking for video game companies to buy. We will probably get some game changing announcements soon. |
His statement was never clear. He never made a statement. There were rumors that he would consider selling off Xbox and Bing. RUMORS. Then you know what even if he did think that was a good idea that idea did not get him the CEO job. That job went to someone else. Someone believe to be much more favorable about Xbox One and Bing. So what does that tell you? So Elop who ran Nokia which was well known for making awesome hardware now runs the hardware part of MS business. Makes perfect sense. Let those designers from Nokia design the next version of the Xbox One for next year (We all know a smaller version will come).
Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
