At that rate MS is probably better off investing in something else.

Ryse could become something interesting, but MS could also fund a new IP or do something with one their IPs for less.

I really think MS needs a very strong first party developer. All this buying of IPs without a really strong homebase (maybe except Epic games) is not really a good thing for the Xbox brand. Bungie who was thought to be The MS's "Naughty Dog" arent even first party and i believe the relationship between them and MS isnt the most amicable after the issues with Halo and ownership of IP. They really need to support new IPs for thier first party developers; learn to take risk and the game community will appreciate them for this.

343 is a strong developer, they made a Halo game I play regularly even after about 2 years on the market. I'm gonna play more of it on X1.

Black Tusk could be strong developer depending on how the next Gears turns out.

Maybe the issue is MS isn't making games you particularly enjoy? I feel that way about Sony regardless of the hype their 1st party games get. I like fun games and Sony doesn't quite deliver that in my opinion.

I wouldn't mind seeing new IPs from MS, but they already plenty of established IPs I enjoy and want more of. New IPs doesn't always equate to great games.

no...343 did not make Halo what it is today they only build on something with a strong foundation, Bungie is Halo. if 343 can create a new ip like Halo then i will acknowledge them. Some people even believe Halo 4 was one of the worst Halo games and Halo should have stopped with 3. Black Tusk, wait for the game to come out.

Regardless, PS has a way more diverse library than MS; while you might not care about PS games. there is a sense of univesal diversity with the PS library; with games like LBP, Uncharted, GOW, JRPG, Infamous, Demon Souls etc. Most from Sony First party Developers it is very easy for gamers with different taste and style to feel appreciation towards the PS library. For me, other than Halo, i never cared for any Xbox exclusives. If MS can bring something entirely new and refreshing to the table, they will stand to win many over especially if this comes from a first party developer not some bought IP.
