Was Xbox's 2022 First Party Output the worst in their gaming HISTORY?

I was not even aware they release any games this year. All those studios and they don't even release anything. I truly do not understand MS.

People love to spout the 'games take time' argument, as if all those 23 studios were only hatched the day Microsoft bought them and weren't working on projects in between. Furthermore, A lot of those companies make smaller or mid-sized games (not every game is Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto or Red Dead Redemption or Uncharted), and while games DO take time, there's been a lot of time and no excuses. 

For the first 2-3 years of this drought, I absolutely would agree that games take time. We're on year 6 and we've only had a handful of quality exclusives in that time and of those games more than half of them are either Halo, Gears, or Forza. 

It's just silly that they can maintain so much brand loyalty for this long. 

You're math is bad. It's been 4 years since they started acquiring in 2018. Then you forget most of those studios being with them less than 4. 

For someone who hates the console wars, you surely do a lot of it.
