Even if they did require xbox live subscriptions for their own games, they would do very well. You'd still need PS+ or whatever Nintendo are calling theirs to play online. Would your average COD, FIFA etc player really want to pay a second subscription just so they can play Halo as well? It would actually massively decrease their xbox live subscription figures.

How would it decease Xbox Live Subs?

MS arent just going to release there games for nothing on other consoles. They would want you to pay for them, They want you in the eco system just like there 1st party line up on PC. If you are a PS4 owner and want to play Xbox games than you would most likely have to pay another sub fee for Live to grant access to these games. There will be gamers out there that will pay up. This can also affect PSN numbers where gamers might choose to ignore PSN to gain Live. 

Ps4 doesn't allow for 2 subs being needed for one experience.

You don't have to pay for PSN+ for MMOs and Freemium games, and other companies can't charge an extra sub for their games because PSN+ is already being charged.

So if MS put their games on PS, they wouldn't be able to request XBL sign from gamers or they would need to convince Sony to remove their need of PSN+ for those games... and considering Sony have no need for MS games on its platform I don't see that happening.
