    [quote user="E5Destroyer2008"]If I heard it wrong I apologize. But the 2nd link I posted stated the Microsoft direct to console games would be no more. And while they were saying that they showed Forza clip. The 2nd link was more info. Again I am

    Again, you're (or more specifically, Yahoo) are misleading. Here is the direct transcript of the link the you posted:

    The parts I have highlighted a very specifically worded to make you believe one thing, when a different thing is the truth. "Direct-to-Xbox" is not the same as "Xbox", nor is " targeting the gaming demographic" the
    same as games. The fact of the matter is "Xbox Entertainment Studios" has not a single thing to do with the production of games or the production of the console. Stating that it does would be the same as saying that the PS4 is dead because Sony Music is
    shutting down (it's not, I'm using an analogy).

    The game side is safe. No need to worry about that. They still own 343 and Black Tusk. Halo is still owned and being made by MS and if further proof is required, they recently purchased Gears from Epic and would not have done so if planning on shutting
    down their game development division. Plenty more games will be coming from MS for the xbox. As for any TV shows or movies and such, the only one I'm aware of that they had any involvement with was Arrow on the CW, but somehow I don't think the loss of MS
    support os going to hurt the show.

    OP just think about this:

    WHY would they built up the Microsoft Studios when they fire them all after it?

    Makes NO sense lol

    Remember they bought some studios for the Xbox One.

    All is good The end is here for XBOX. Just posted info ;)

    Xbox isn't failing they're succeeding the number that they sold with the 360 but they are under the PS4's numbers. The only reason that the XBOX isn't selling as well as it could is that they failed when they announced it making it look like apple tv and
    not talking about games and selling it at $500.00 Kinect only. This is due because XBOX was the king of consoles in the 7th generation and they thought they had to get away with it. I am seeing Microsoft clean up their mistakes and getting back on the track.
    In many cases they are making better decisions than sony because sony realized they were top dog now.

    Sometimes folk read between the lines and then come to a conclusion without understanding the full story.

    Newspapers and magazine articles do have a tendency to over dramatize on certain things.

    So, in the words of Douglas Adams "Don`t Panic" - I didn`t have a font called `big friendly letters` The end is here for XBOX. Just posted info :)

    Microsoft will close
    its direct-to-Xbox entertainment branch as part of its extensive layoffs of up to 18,000 people announced Thursday, ending many plans for original programming
    targeting the gaming demographic. Re/code reported the news of the closure first as rumor, which was confirmed by Xbox chief Phil Spencer. The decision to cut Xbox Entertainment Studios reflects the recent pivot Xbox has undergone. The
    console originally launched as an "all-in-one games and entertainment system," but that seems to be a strategy in flux in response to the large market lead by Sony's PlayStation 4.
    The parts I have highlighted a very specifically worded to make you believe one thing, when a different thing is the truth. "Direct-to-Xbox" is not the same as "Xbox", nor is " targeting the gaming demographic" the

    This is a completely misleading, and completely incorrect thread. What is really happening is Microsoft is shutting down "Xbox Entertainment Studios". This is the division of Xbox that produces and funds films, television, documentaries,
    etc that are shown on the Xbox platforms. This has zero, zip, nada, nil, not a damn thing to do with the rest of Xbox. Games will remain the same. Apps will remain the same. Every single other part of Xbox will remain the same.

    Stop posting completely wrong information.
