Sadly, I don't see it happening as long as Xbox Game Studios exists, and there's no reason they'd shut down Xbox as long as they have the PC market.
The engine is fine; it will continue. And it is absolutely unnecessary for the CEO of a gaming company to play a game. Gamers are some of the dumbest, least informed, and least business-savvy people on planet Earth (go read the comments about Sony, MSFT, and Nintendo over at GBATemp.com if you don't believe me). These studios, for whatever reason, were not making MSFT profits. Pure and simple. They had to go or be massively reformed. She wasn't brought in after leading one of the most profitable businesses any company has ever had to continue doing what the previous Xbox boss was doing. This needed to be done. Stop whining about it.
I don’t know who’s going to like hearing this but if they do sell Rare, sell it to Nintendo, maybe they will do something with it.
Most likely Sony, Microsoft might leave the console market though and just stick to pc.
