I hope Lorne comes up with a winner this time and Microsoft eventually get back on board.

Microsoft not throwing cash at exclusives like it's going out of fashion? What's up with them?

Dr Blerk, are they OK?

I mean... it's not normal Microsoft behaviour! I sure hope it's nothing serious...

Perhaps this has something to do with the quality of the game.

And that's relevant to the story because....?

Anyway, I've given Microsoft a thorough check-up and they seem to be fine although they seem to have lost a lot of cash through an old war wound.

That'll be $50billion please, Mr Gates.

"Who cares, they chose xbox in the beginning because the PS2 didn't have enough power for what they wanted to do"

Sure. Except they didn't "choose it in the beginning", they already had developed it for a while on the PS2. Microsoft's purchase of the publishing rights pretty much forced them to switch platforms, whether they liked it or not.

Buggy windows releases have nothing to do with it. If the game is sub par they aren't going to throw money at them. Money that can then be spend throwing it at developers who are making great games.
