It just took four announcements to place Nintendo at the top of my arbitrary "who won E3 this year" list. This is because that list represented both the strengths of Nintendo's first party property, and the Switch's appeal as a portable platform. This was a special E3 for Nintendo, as it showed that they’re throwing their full weight behind Switch. And as we've come to know throughout the company’s history, whenever Nintendo throws their full weight at anything, wonderful things happen.
One former 343 Industries QA Tester blames Microsoft's contracting policies for the Halo franchise's hardships and MS' exclusives downturn in quality.
Microsoft biggest opp is the main stream media lol suda 51 hit it on the head on metacritic and media bias.
I found that after Microsoft bought 2 certain ip's from Bungie and Epic their quality has gone down. The exclusives are boring Gears 4 and 5 I thought were boring Halo 5 I also thought was boring. And yes the quality was there when XB360 had exclusives. But since XB1 and Series X the quality and lack of exclusives has gone down. And yes it sounds like Microsoft is a prick to work for. Work today get turfed tomorrow.
