Yeah, I know, but the idealist in me doesn't want to know that they're spending $1,000,000,000 on games for Xbone. Moneyhats are slowly strangling the life out of the Madden series since it went exclusive EA. People complain about how the industry has stagnated(mostly in the AAA space), I worry if the attitude that MS is displaying will just encourage more of that.
Ultimately, I know money makes the world go round. Money makes the games I love to play. I really wish MS could show as much enthusiasm for games as they have for fantasy football, and a cable box pass-through. For me, ever since the first reveal, my interpretation of MS's actions has been that they have put games and gamers on the back-burner. "Hey look at our UI! SNAP! TV! Fantasy Football! Games? Oh, don't worry about that, we threw a bunch of money at some devs..." It's been a poor campaign from the start, imo, when a company can spend one billion dollars on development and people like me still can't get over that other stuff. It just feels like an afterthought to me.
That's just me, though. I realize I may be totally off my rocker on this.
