The difference is Microsoft isnt creative (like Kamiya) and isnt patient. Rumor has it Kamiya wasnt well and took a month off of the game and Microsoft pulled the plug because it didnt meet the time table.

Microsoft have pushed plenty of 'creative' games. And it's ludicrous to think Microsoft pulled the plug on a game being a month behind their timetable. Do you honestly believe they dumped millions into the ip just to pull the plug when it falls a bit behind? 

Such as? What hot titles have Microsofts first party pushed from first party that ever made anyone turn their head? Sunset Overdrive doesnt count since the IP is not theirs and that was the works well before they helped publish it. Not purchased titles like Halo and Gears.Phil Spencer has always alluded to wanting to make Microsoft focus on first party like Sony and Nintendo, which means he already knew first party at Microsoft has always been a massive issue. They had droughtslast gen at the end because they could not keep up with Sonys first party and not enough third party were free to make exclusives.
