Well I can't say that I am surprise by this announcement. The game simply din't look like it was shaping up. I blame Platinum Games, they got this exclusive deal with Microsoft and just kept on taking other contract has a developer. This game was being rushed and the scale of the project was too big for the team they had working on it.

Microsoft need to acquire some independent second party studios, that are dedicated to making Xbox One games.

The lost of scale bound is a major blow to list of exclusive titles coming to Microsoft platform. But, hopefully this E3 there will be major announcement to make up for lack of exclusives in order to boost developer working on title for the Scorpio.

MS can take a risk and lose millions in ill fated games.

A small studio could die, even if they have a moderated success - Irational Games. 

And there are less and less independent studio capable of outputing AAA titles. 

Irational Games being shut down wasn't that big of a loss since Bioshock wasn't that original.  Team Bondi being shut down was a bigger loss L.A. Noire was one of the most original games of the last generation and the MotionScan technology used in making that game was ahead of its time.
