Hi-Fi rush comes out of nowhere to massive critical acclaim just to be shut down anyway because Starfield sucked ass. Why people ever do business with these shitass publishers I'll never understand

> Tango makes a great game
> Put it day one on Game Pass
> Close the studio when it doesn't meet sale targets

Corp. logic truly is something else.

You close Tango the developers behind your only recent good game, but keep 343 open. Ok Phil.

I'm honestly ready to not support Xbox anymore after this. They've been non-stop fumbling the ball with game releases this generation. Hi-Fi Rush was the first game that came out that I felt was phenomenal and such a breathe of fresh air, and they just straight killed the studio anyways. Killing studios that make good games is not how you foster a gaming platform people want to be part of.
