Well if they can spend 2.5 billion dollars on an indie developer, you would think they could hire some more people to make their games...

They are not doing everything and anything at all. Great developers are losing their jobs left and right these days. Why not go after them instead of buying timed exclusivity and content for certain games which does nothing for the consumer in any way?

 

I mean I dont have any knowledge of which developers are losing their jobs other than I do know that some of them are.  I also know that some of the console game developers are now seeing a bigger potential profit in making games on mobile devices.  

The other thing to note is that a lot of the great developers are also being snatched up by currently successful game developers like Naughty Dog.  I have also read articles where these game developers are creating new studios, which seem to be the indie developers nowadays.

The only thing that I can see Microsoft doing in the future is by winning over some of the indie developers that will make games exclusively for the XB1.  

Mobile development is a lie!
