Earlier this week, DFC released a report stating that Microsoft’s E3 show this year was evidence that the company was on track to leave the console hardware business eventually, and that all of its announcements at E3 this year were indicative of this move. Even at the time, I found the report to be a bit odd, especially given that Microsoft had just announced two new consoles (including one directly in response to the criticism leveled at the Xbox One), as well as multiple new games in the pipeline.

However, it would be great to see a new range of scents since there are only six, and many smell similar to each other."
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
GameScent is aiming to push gaming forward with the ability to fill the room with an aroma that matches the game being played.
That article saying that they're leaving consoles is pretty damn stupid. Anybody with half a brain after seeing that E3 conference would think that they're more invested in consoles than ever.
Any one who thinks they are leaving one of the biggest markets in the world , and can't see they are expanding their brand and market is badly miss informed or don't have a clue what they are talking about.
Also all this talk about lack of new games is a joke too ... You don't make 2 new consoles if you are leaving it , announce a custome controller scheme through your own website if you are leaving the gaming
And you don't announce a new console for next year without big games to come on it , a lot of people will be in for a shock next year and all this lack of gamming talk will change by the media to ... Microsoft nailed it , they showed what gaming is , games games games , the tortoise is catching up. Honestly people need to start using their brains rather than their own personal views when writing articles and blogs , the facts have never added up to the leaving the gaming business so why say it ?
Either way Microsoft is the winner here.
Dissolving their entire gaming division to push its Windows 10 software further isn't a bad idea. The OS is incredibly lucrative and its profit margins are through the roof.
Microsoft thrives with or without Xbox. Clearly.
