So make something new. Microsoft is in desperate need of defining series rather than Halo and Gears of War, both of which are the types of games he's criticizing here.

Why take risks when I can dig up an old IP and jingle it’s corpse around for a quick buck?

I like both, especially halo, it's very nostalgic for me, but the excitement for new games in the series' are gone and they need new exciting IPs

343 has also made some pretty terrible decisions with the franchise.

Both have places existing sure. There's nothing wrong with old series existing, just that new ideas should be tested and used.
