Microsoft wants to streamline game dev.
Read about it here:

XNA tools will help in the creation of games for the current Windows XP operating system for PCs and the current Xbox, said Vice President J. Allard, and will be extended in the next version of the Xbox and Longhorn, the successor to Windows XP.
"As a developer, you can just depend on a stable and robust environment--and not just stable for this generation," Allard said.
"Are we going to sit and wait for hardware to decide when the next generation of gaming begins?" Allard continued. "I say no. I say the next generation begins today." |
Will this give XBOX more leverage in game development? Will this mean more games? Better games? Faster development times?
