Not really surprising, their marketing is pretty ass imo. IGN updated the article below.

A source told IGN that Microsoft's gaming teams had already suffered significant cuts to marketing budgets before staff were told of the layoffs.

Layoffs in the video game industry are becoming the norm, even at companies that continue to deliver huge profits.

I'm glad i never got into video game development. Was a childhood dream. Never happened but i later learned about the long work hours, low pay, constant layoffs. I'm lucky i didn't

I remember Full Sail University’s marketing trying to finesse people into this Game Development degree with a crazy ass tuition. :pachaha:
