We may very soon discover if the new xbox will have enough traction... there is no guarantee that they will get all games from EA, if their new console plummet they may lose support, but if it sells good enough and/or it's easy to port from PS counterpart or PC them they will get games. And you gone from MS not allowing themselves to lose because they have a lot of money to a very specific point of not being without 3rd party support.

 

What hard lesson have they learned? They seem to be doing just the same they always done as a company. And their internal studios are even weaker than they were on X360, 

Having better hardware for one once again will help MS, MS has been doing a lot of good things actually since Spencer has become the head honcho, I'd expect that to continue. Neo is a nice upgrade, but Scorpio is gonna be a real beast. 

For me personally I don't really give much a crap about either of their 1st party games. I like Uncharted and Halo is OK I guess, but the rest .... meh. I buy Sony or MS for third party content because they make 95%+ of the worthwhile games on the platform for me. 

Actually my favorite first party game from either one this gen is Killer Instinct (tons of fun). Sunset Overdrive was neat too. 

If you want the 95% of the content that is 3rd party you would better expend your money on PC.

And I haven't trully see their improvements with Spencer, they were just reacting to backlash, no real improvement. They still do the same spining and other bad practices they had before... Spencer were already part of the team and the previous head wasn't the whole of MS nor was an outlier, it was what MS truly is, they may only be disguising their intents.
