Microsoft announces new entertainment and game studio focused on Windows 8 tablet development

Windows 8 slates are riding a wave of 40 Xbox titles into an October launch, and now Microsoft has laid the foundation to deliver more games with a brand new studio focused on tablet development. The currently unnamed, London-based outfit will be headed by former Rare Production Director Lee Schuneman, who has shepherded Kinect Sports titles,
the Xbox 360 Avatars, Fable: The Journey and the Xbox's Sky TV app to completion. Slabs running Richmond's latest OS won't see a project from the team for a while, however, as the studio is still looking for new hires and won't open its doors until November.
