Will Microsoft ever publish AO games?

In a conversation I had with Peter Moore the short answer is “no”. How come? “Because we have a policy. At some point you have to draw the line. You can argue where the line needs to be drawn, but a line needs to be drawn. Our policy is we will publish any game the ESRB orders as an M rated game. We stand by that, protect that, but AO we believe over steps the line that we have drawn.”
