I've never expected anything to be improved by the addition of Microsoft lol.
Halo probably got significantly better after Microsoft acquired Bungie. It would have probably been somewhat popular, especially among Marathon fans, but nothing like it was.
That is the major exception.
That could be correct, but I seem to remember a pretty short timeframe between acquisition and release, like 6 months. I think everyone assumed it would have looked like the early Mac demos if it hadn't been acquired by Microsoft, but I believe they had already redesigned the game by the time they were bought out.
Apparently it's far, far less buggy than any prior Beth release, which is something. But I don't know if that helps it really.
