"Business deals happen. We won't do all of them. When we have a first party franchise in a genre I'd rather invest in ours," Spencer said on Twitter, when asked what he thought of the announcement.
The first party fighting franchise Spencer speaks of is, of course, Killer Instinct -- which Microsoft acquired with the purchase of Rare back in 2002.

Regarding the next year for Xbox, Spencer said, "We have surprises, announces and great games shipping in 2015, we'll deliver on all three."

SFV needed the funding from Sony to even exist, Ono said so himself. The Tomb Raider deal is bullshyt because the game was already funded and in development for PC and PS4. June NPD came in and MS got scared an threw money at SE to keep it off other platforms

where did he say that? everyone seems to be inferring that since he said he didn't have the staff and budget a while back, but part of that was him saying his staff was busy with USF4. that seems to infer that his staff would be available for something else when they finished USF4

IMO it's all conjecture until someone says it in so many words (and that may never happen)
