Oh, really? So you´re telling me that even if Halo, Forza, Gears, etc, had remained exclusive to consoles, you would have moved to PC anyways, right?

I game on pc since 1998 when I had my first pentium 2 computer, so I did not 'move' to PC. Also MS supporting PC with their titles is not the same as MS pushing anyone to PC. All those titles are also available on samsung tv through cloud gaming, would you say MS is pushing you to play on Samsung tv?

Not Samsung but cloud yes.  MS basically want you to play their games and remove any barrier to that goal.  While I agree that because of MS mistakes, the traditional console is out of reach for them in the short term because it requires Sony and Nintendo making some huge mistakes and MS hitting just about everything perfect to actually make a dent now.  The Xbox one was really a huge mistake by MS especially since they were going into that gen with some level of momentum.  It took way to long and to many missteps getting to now where you can say MS is getting into some type of software grove and even still isn't hitting the same as Sony and Nintendo.  When all else fails, the rule is to fall back on what you do best and where the better part of their talent is at which is the PC space.  Either way, going that route doesn't bleed money as it can with a console if you are not hitting your numbers.
