    What would be likely to happen if Microsoft gave up on the Xbox


    Purely hypothetical, and I don't think this is ever likely to happen for the record. But it's also not the most confident time period to be a Microsoft gaming fan.

    So what happens if Microsoft just called it quits? Say the ABK deal never pans out, their upcoming games mostly disappoint, and they just don't want to keep investing in their gaming division with the returns they're getting. Do they sell their entire division to another mega corporation? Do they dismantle it all and sell it piecemeal? Do they only partially give up, and shut down Xbox but push on with pc and cloud?

    Is there any situation where we don't lose our libraries for good?

    I don't worry too much, but it's hard not to worry a little. Especially as of late with redfall and purchasing ABK seeming really iffy all of a sudden.

    :)

    Random disconnects to xbox live while play COD.

    happened 6 more times on the 28th, also happened 2 times on the 29th but I gave up as it would take me several minutes to login to xbox live and then onto COD. After the second time I would try to find a game and it would never connect me to a game. It
    also happened 3 times today so I gave up again and logged of.

    What would happen...

    Xbox One games are Blu Ray discs, as with PS3 and PS4, therefore it wouldn't work. X86 is just a PC like architecture that enables high level and quality of gaming.

    What would happen...

    I would probably just tell you the disc is unreadable and that's about it.
