Xbox is ‘not healthy’, but losing all of this talent isn’t the cure – Arkane, Compulsion, Double Fine, Ninja Theory, and Undead Labs deserve better. Xbox CEO Asha Sharma terms a "reset" for Xbox, but could this reset be the sign of the end of Xbox? Closing Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, the cancellation of Perfect Dark, and more, it's been a bleak few years for Microsoft and Xbox. So, what now, Xbox? Is the cure to go all-in on a handful of decades-old “mega franchises” like Halo, The Elder Scrolls, and Call of Duty? It’s a big bet. Let’s see if it pays off. #IGN #Xbox #XboxLayOffs
