They opened a dozen new studios over the years. They're working on something. Microsoft also has new stuff like Scalebound, Sunset Overdrive, and Project Spark. There isn't a shortage of new projects at Microsoft Studios.
The Wii U's first party games aren't enough to power it past the PS4. Microsoft knows you need more than first party games to sell, and this is why they moneyhat.

Working on something. Nice to know. Shame we don't know what. Scalebound and Sunset Overdrive are not being made by their studios. They are a deal where MS fund development and it appears on MS console, very simple business and not a concern.It's this obvious taking away a game from others that is.
Maybe Wii U first party aren't enough to take it past the PS4 but its enough to have it keep on toe with Xbox One even without this 3rd party support. I want to see MS make big games themselves, not have 3rd parties do it for them. Forza is a great start but so far Xbone's biggest games are all 3rd party. Xbox gamers deserve more than just paying off 3rd parties for exclusives that already existed anyway.

@Bolded: Neither is Bloodborn, The Order, Deep Down, Wild, HellBlade or a host of other exclusives that are coming out for the PS4. Pretty much every thread I read, I do not see anyone who is Pro Sony have any problems with those studios making exclusives for Sony.
Basically people pick and choose how they see 3rd party developers making games for the console of their choice. We see the list of these games pop up all the time but no real concern they are not Sony studios or for some even exclusives but timed.

Bloodborne is being co developed by sony japan and from software using a similar formula they used to create demon sould. Ready at dawn is second party co developing with first party in sony santa monica. Those are full first party games. They are collaborative efforts.

Both Japan Studio and Santa Monica are basically publishing arms of Sony Worldwide Studios. What you call co-develop is in actuality just another publishing deal.
Either way, From software a 3rd party developer is contracted to create this game or sign a contract from Sony to develop the game on their platform. Its pretty much the same thing as Sunset Overdrive. Developers making deals with platform holders to create games.

how the hell do YOU know that?
Everyone is suddenly has access to privy information now?
how do you know the true extent of SOny Japan's involvement in developing the project.
