Microsoft is edging closer to a monopoly, which may be why they're making this move.
Windows is a monopoly, Xbox is not.

I'm fully aware of that but if history showed one thing it's that Microsoft runs game developers into the ground.
Also Take Two, Nintendo, EA, and Sony exist. Microsoft has no monopoly just because they bought a crap publisher. The lastest Call of Duty game on mobile already tanked.
