The biggest problem here is as follows:
With so few 1party studios, there will be a lot of empty spots between launches, at least smaller games inbeetwen with good content can balance the year. The remaining studios are launching their games this year, and unless if they rehash their next game, it will be 2-3 years until next.. I suspect the other alternativ e route is that the remaining studios will start annualizing their games.
Third-party exclusives will get less and less likely if the Ps4 continues where it's heading, cuz there will be less profits in the underdog Vs the alpha-hound, it will at least be more expensive for Ms to pay for the deals.
I don't doubt Ms will aquire a better studio but having 8 useless studios wasting $ that could wiser be spent on these games.. I am sure Ms will relocate 50-100% of the devs from these studios into one or two, where they will be responsible to hire the workers they need for a project.... Problems with corporations is that they lack imagination but are pro at selling shit
