So, freaking stupid Microsoft closes down the developers of one of my favorite game franchises, Age of Empires. Ensemble Studios is gone! WTF Microsoft! Why! It is one of your succesful franchises, how could you do this. And then to close them after they made a freakin console exclusive crap rts known as Halo Wars?! WHY MICROSOFT WHY!!!!!!!

Ok, more seriously now, I don't really see why they were closed down. The AoE series was successful. Age of Empires 3 sold quit a bit, over a million(not sure how much). I'm sure AoE4 would have been sucessful, and Halo Wars is just about to come out. I really wonder what the reasons MS has for doing. Also, I know that they are making a new dev, but it depends who moves, else it might not be the same game we all know and love.
