If this is true then microsoft is hurting, but I think its because microsoft is going to focus more on buying third party exclusives.

Unlikely, since they're hiring most of the staff from the closed studios to strengthen their first-party offerings.

hahah first line of the article "Consider this speculation because that’s all it is, the purpose of the article is to stimulate discussion."

Did you miss that part?

@thektchensink
It will help strengthen their first-party, but by doing this it will save mircorsoft more money to spend on third-party exclusives.

@ymeaga1n
No, thats why i put discuss

I am glad that the article explicitly stated that it was speculation. Still, his premise is nothing but post hoc ergo propter hoc. The article was also filled with many grammatical errors.
