They have ten first party studios at this moment in time, they should of kept Bungie first party as well tbh.

No, try only actually 4. Mistwalker, Rare, Starbreeze, Lionhead. A majority of 360 exclusives are third party. But yeah, MS seriously needs to get more in house devs. I want to know what's up w/ XNA, is that decent?

wow your misinformed

they don't own Mistwalker and Starbreeze

in fact, I don't know why you even mentioned Starbreeze- The Darkness was on PS3

they own ten studios, it's just that only 4 of them work on Xbox games

Yea in my opinion they can do better but the thing is MSoft doesn't have a history of buying studios so i don't know. Very skeptical on this one.

That's cool for sure because they don't have a robust 1st party line up. If they end up buying Mistwalker I hope they still let them make DS games like they let Rare

I would still let them make DS games. It lets the IP see greater penatration, gives it more profits, and ya sticks it to the competition in an indirect way.

my avatar is a rare piece of artwork, one of the only pieces ever created by the artist known as Rujoshin. It was made for me on the day of my 2000th post. It consists of an eaten hamburger, fries and onion rings that spell the name Odion.

Very nice, Odion.
I don't know why, but I see it, and I think "chicken". Am I strange because of this?

I hope they don't acquire Q games.

The rest, awesome if true, but they were mainly 360 only anyways.

Does Silicon Knights own Eternal Darkness? If MS does buy them I hope they get a sequel to that before finishing off the Too Human trilogy. I want my Sanity Meter!

yeah buit i think (at last) they are begining to relize that to win you need a lot of good exclusive games and the way 3rd party devs are now its best to have them first party and in order to do that they are going to need to buy a few studios so lest hope they pick some good ones up....i say go for remedy of alan wake and max payne

Yeh that is a good point, Frankie has now left Bungie and is working with MS. Also MS is setting up another first party studio which will be making XBLA games.
