Microsoft has "high respect" for both of its competitors but "wouldn't trade places with anybody."
That's according to Xbox's EMEA VP, Chris Lewis, who told MCV in a new interview he believes Microsoft's home console is in "an enviable position".
With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
Paul Thurrott in a recent episode commented on the on-going Microsoft fiasco hinting at more job losses and that "there's more to come".
There won't be no more acquiring game publishers from Microsoft in the future . Xbox has to pay Microsoft back. It might take two decades to do that.
There really needs to be a class action lawsuit here. You buy these companies just to put people out of jobs. And it’s not like something happened to derail their plans this WAS the plan. Microsoft has no business in this space at all.
Ninja Theory, Perfect Dark, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Wolfenstein 3, Dishonored, Prey, Doom, Quake... something tells me that bad things are going to happen to these entities under Microsoft.
The Xbox brand is expanding, as an Xbox mobile game store is opening this coming July where Microsoft will brings its "first-party portfolio."
“Bond adds that they will start on the web”
This will go nowhere.
Nice knowing you Xbox. This is what happens when the house never gets cleaned.
The only this MS is expanding is the amount of feculence it sprays on everyone who just want to enjoy gaming and make games.
The best thing MS can do for the gaming industry is leave and never return.
And I'm thinking they would trade places with you either.
Why would they want to change places with them, when they are currently selling faster than both of them WW and are showing the most growth YoY.
if i were microsoft i would want to trade places with nintendo, because lets face it thats what xbox360 is all about now "casual gaming" and the wii is very casual.
Blimey Microsoft, you wouldn't want to trade places with the companies who own some of the best studios in the industry producing many of the most acclaimed games out there?
Then again they have been producing mad amounts of revenue this gen.
Who knows, Microsoft might have as good a portfolio as Nintendo and Sony in the future, after all they are the youngest of the three.
LMFAO!
