Latest news is that Xbox Games Division had been required to aim for a 30% profit margin for the last several years.

Thats why everything sucks and blew up.

Thats a fucking insane baseline target.

Line for next quarter profit must go up, therefore, cut costs.

This is obvious self destructive in the long run, but that doesn't matter, what matters is C Suite's golden parachutes.
