[Kotaku] It's Time To Stop Giving Xbox Boss Phil Spencer A Pass

[Quad Damage 1,763]

 

 

"But while Spencer was something of an industry darling for over a decade, it’s become clear in the last two years or so that he isn’t infallible, and perhaps deserving of some scrutiny. Under his leadership at Xbox thousands of people were laid off not long after the company spent billions of dollars to acquire Bethesda and Activision. Studios have been closed. Games have been canned. DLC has been canceled. And Xbox’s first-party output has continued to be feast and famine—in 2022 the company practically had nothing. In 2023 it had some stuff to show. This year, it’s quiet.

 

Sure, its release schedule will (assuming nothing is delayed) pick up later with the release of Seuna’s Saga and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but after all the money spent on building Xbox’s stable of studios and teams, after all the cuts and layoffs, after all the resources poured into growing the brand, Xbox has very little to show but poor console sales and a few cool games like Hi-Fi Rush. (Though, not cool enough to spare the studio from being shut down.)"

Gamepass costs less than 3 games per year 

 

 

there are more than 3 games per year I’d buy at launch that are on gamepass. Same with cows, which is the reason why usually 50% of the top selling PS games are on gamepass. 

 

plus way more.  I can still buy any game I want that’s not on gamepass. 
 

Phil made this possible. The man for the consumer.
 

of course, cows enjoy being milked, so I can see why they feel the way they do.

 The gaming media is finally turning on this clown after dickriding and enabling him for years. It’s a little too late for that now. After he has completely ruined ShitBox and is now destroying studios with his retarded business moves they want to call him out, LMFAO. If they had only done their jobs in the first place, none of this would be happening. 
 

Even after the death of Xbox and closure of multiple studios under Phil you still have retards like Cuckstz above defending ShitPass. The years of brainwashing and propaganda have worked on him. Retards like him don’t buy games and instead live on a shitty rental service and are now wondering why their console of choice is on life support and the multitude of studios MS bought are slowly crumbling before their eyes

Fire Phil Spencer. Look at him putting on them pounds with his old fat head. He feasts on food from his personal chef while his employees are waiting for unemployment and hope.
