Loads of people don't, in part due to the prominent (and innaccurate) myth that Microsoft don't develop their own games or IP.
OT: Cool thread, should be interesting!

To be fair that is because majority of those studios don't actualy buld standalone mainstream IPs for MS. So teher is nothing to go by. You can't fault anyone saying MS doesn't make games if by the end of a generation all they have to show for it is Halo, Gears, Forza, Crackdown and Fable. Even if more than one studio worked on any number of those games.
Just look at the MS list, so many studios, yt very little info on what they are all working on. For all we know they may mostly be doing support work.
Its also hard to argue with peoples skepticism when there were years last gen that MS would release only 1/2 AAA exclusiveyet its competition would release 5/6.
