Break up with basic browsers. Get Opera GX here: <a href="https://operagx.gg/TheActMan3">https://operagx.gg/TheActMan3</a><br><br>Xbox recently shut down multiple game studios and they gave the most horrible reasons for doing so. After shutting down Tango Gameworks, the developers behind Hi-Fi Rush, I have no faith in Xbox's ability to release high-quality titles. This is... The Never-Ending Decline of Xbox.

the fact that Tango was shut down for wanting a few years of development for Hi Fi Rush 2 is so sad.

"We acquired Lionhead in 2006 shut it down in 2016, a couple of years later we reflected on that experience"<br>They reflected on how to do it again.

“Too big to fail” attitude never works out for any company.

Ah, Satoru Iwata. Not only was he a compassionate and charismatic leader, he also was a genius programmer who, among other feats, tested and debugged Super Smash Bros Melee in one week (which was all that he had because the game was due), recompressed Pokémon Golden and Silver so well they could include the Kanto region from Red and Blue in the cartridge, and he single-handedly reprogrammed EarthBound from scratch midway through development, rescuing the entire project at a time when all seemed lost. Mr. Iwata weighted heavily in Nintendo's long term success in every way conceivable. He was the kind of CEO companies only dream they could have. He is a legend, and he is sorely missed.

I think of it like this... remember how companies in the past were dubbed "too big to fail?" <br>I believe companies like Activision/Blizzard/xbox, or whatever you would like to call it... are "too big to function."

Somehow the Red Dead Redemption 2 format you chose for this is a perfect analogy of a once great strong organization spiraling into panic and insanity

Microsoft is the equivalent of that girl from Finding Nemo, shaking the fish in the bag and then wondering why it isn't moving.

I like the Golden Goose analogy. It feels like Xbox doesn't understand that if you let the goose be for a while, it will lay golden eggs and continue to lay golden eggs. Instead what Xbox does is cut the goose open, take the golden egg, discard the carcass, and move on to the next goose.
