Most of which can be played on PC day one without buying an xbox.

Neither Sony or Nintendo do that hence more demand for their hardware, less demand for xbox's.

How many have themselves created?
I believe just 4?

Halo
Forza
Age of Empires
Flight Simulator

edit: maybe you could make an argument for Gears of War since it’s always been Xbox exclusive? that’d bring them to 5 though they bought the IP from Epic

I don't know how much I'd read into that list, no animal crossing, no splatoon, no kirby, no ring fit, I have trouble believing ratchet and clank hasn't hit a billion with like 26 million units sold before the 2016 remake and a rift apart and it seems likely Horizon has hit over a billion as well, missing third party stuff that's almost certain to be there like worms

People forgetting they haven't seen companies sit on their IPs and not doing them justice.
Don't think MS would be one of them, but I still won't cheer till games start dropping.

You got this MS. Don't make another Gears 5 which by all standards was categorized as good but still mediocre. Then all these IPs are wasted on you.

"Daddy, I want more billion-dollar franchises!"
"But son, we already bought you billion-dollar franchises and you never use them."
"I DON'T CARE! I WANT MORE!"
