The real division between games and games will, as it always has been, be if the game is fun or not. Nothing else matters. If it's not fun, it'll flop and disappear, some quicker than others. But if it's fun, people will cont

Companies of the size of Microsoft usually function more like a country with various companies within, rather than one company with a unified view and unified goals. So probably, the group wasn't even aware of that technology because i
