Yesterday:

"These changes are grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games..."

Today:

“We need smaller games that give us prestige and awards,”

Matt Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios, held a town hall to discuss the division’s future goals. “We need smaller games that give us prestige and awards,” Booty told employees, according to internal remarks shared with The Verge.

These guys always have been the biggest bunch of liars. We already have literally dozens of bald face lies from Phil, now its booty's turn. All they do is say the right things fed to them by their PR teams but they have absolutely no intention to actually do the right thing. Fucking politicians in disguise.

Xbox has been run to the ground by these shameless people.

Don't worry, guys. Xbox is actually well-managed. Not far behind Nintendo. Just look at the games they've been pushing out. 😒

Yeah, feels like Microsoft is back in control of Xbox, and they're sailing straight back into the Mattrick era.

"We need high quality exclusives!"
*makes none*
"We need to appear to the core gamer!"
*focuses on Kinect shovelware*
"We're all about gaming!"
*announces its next-gen console with a focus on TV*
"Xbox is the best place to play!"
*continues to make Xbox objectively worse*

In a trillion dollar corporation, the left hand can't know what the right hand is doing. So, I'm actually really curious what their next-gen Xbox hardware looks like now - not because I think they'll deliver something amazing, but because they be on track to deliver Xbone 2.0. And, oh boy, am I'm excited to see what new, creative ways their boardroom thinking has devised to royally fuck up.

The reason they closed the studio doesn't have to do with performance then, maybe it really has to do with Mikami leaving, but they seem to know that the studio won't be in their max capability
