Had he have scaled back, kept Xbox as a niche console, even with just halo/gears/forza as exclusives, he could have kept the hardcore, diehard fans happy. Real exclusives, even one would have made them happy. He chose his path. Abandon the hardcore. Throw the hardcore gamer out. He chose that. It's on him 100%, no excuses. His vision for xbox just sucked ass and the fans paid the ultimate price. He couldn't sell this idea to the CEO. Period. He had to make a pitch that they would accept to keep dumping money into the division, he made the only choice he could under the leadership. The leadership didnt give him the mandate to "save" the XBox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Remember when Jehurey said they promoted Phil Spencer so he could liquidate XBox and make it a third party platform? He said this back in 2016, and I said the same thing. And all the lemmings called us crazy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The moment I read the news story that Phil Spencer was "promoted" to be part of Microsoft's CEO inner circle of executives from all departments, I knew that Phil Spencer had just lost control over the Xbox division and he was going to be told what to do from that point forward. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Let's not pretend for a second that Phil Spencer DIDN'T get promoted without pitching this idea first himself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm thinking of a character from a movie who ends up making a deal to just save their own ass and sellout everybody else. He reminds me of that douchebag that tried to negotiate himself out by giving up McClane in Die Hard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nokia had exclusives for Ngage. The Amazon/Samsung/whatever the fuck Xbox, anything other than MS, would have had exclusives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SheepKilla 473 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Brave byhtre is like a starship captain gazing into a burning sun. As he looks ahead stone-faced, he utters this last command: "Ship, continue northwards. Bring me into the inferno. So that we may die with honor. This is my last transmission." A true hero. A true space Captain. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
