Will wait for the deflective "MS isn't the only company to cancel games, isn't the only company to close studios, isn't the only company to do 180 all the time, etc".

Kinda lost interest in whataboutism and slippery slope as argument tactics on here, there's no point in discussing Star Fox 2 not coming out for the SNES in a thread about the Xbox brand power. I'd rather speak about the things that brand is doing as I was going back and forth with @Chazore in the article about this mod being dropped I was just kinda shocked because there is amazing modders on the PC side of MC who have graphics addons which made the "overly ambitious" one that Mojang were working on look shoddy and yeah... Mojang/Xbox game studios/MS effectively have infinite money and they couldn't reach out to some of that modding community and check them a 6 figure amount to come on board and give them access to Microsoft's hardware and software to build tho fan made add-ons into a "super duper" project if they couldn't do anything over the last 24 months.

Naw... they fire money at other studios instead who are already making games so that those games won't appear on other systems, rather than spending some money on what they already have, ya know.... a game which sold 176m units over all systems. It is without question the largest gaming IP that Microsoft owns and a upgrade for the graphics to that 10 year old title was deemed to not be worth completing. Crazy.

For me the only explanation for it is that they just invented an excuse because they are working on Minecraft 2 and will use the assets they developed to Super Duper. I refuse to accept they would be so incompetent that they couldn't make it even if limiting to X1X and PC.
