Buying marketing deals is a short term profit goal. Buying an exsisting ip is a long term goal that is way more expensive. Millions of dollars for marketing deal (which they usually make their money back) is no where near paying billions (gears of war ip and minecraft ip for example). Hell, what Microsoft paid for Minecraft is more than what Sony makes in a year (assuming it isn't a loss of course). And just in case nobody figured it out, the console industry is staying the same. The only new AAA big titles that sold and did very well was Titan Fall, Destiny and arguably Watch Dogs this gen. Microsoft must know that this industry can be easily bought because there is only a few AAA titles that are very successful like Fallout, Halo, COD,ect....

What new AAA (I assume third party) games this gen that were good (high meta) did badly? Because I can pretty much assure that any that did badly scored low and we're bad/mediocre games.
I can only think of Evolve and even then I don't know the sales of it. Shadow of mordor did great watch dogs broke records.

I was refering to big AAA system sellers.
