Phil Spencer says he doesn't care about console wars

And so shouldn't many others ...

At the Media briefing he even mentioned Sony and Nintendo. Haven't seen that for years.
 
I was really impressed with his appearance on giant bomb last night. Dude seems relly sincere and it was funny hearing him shit on the early original xbox games from Microsoft.
 
I believe him. If you saw him last night on the giant bomb stream praising Nintendo and stuff it came across very genuine. I think he's the perfect person to help turn around the Xbox image.
 
But he is fighting it.

I agree gamers didn't needs to care about (some part they care) but the soldiers fighting the console war needs to care about (MS, Sony, Nintendo).
 
This is why people talking about drop the price to 299 panic is useless. They don't care about some fanboy being upset with coming in 2nd or whatever they just wanna make profits.
 
Wars are one thing, getting slaughtered in sales is different. Xbox 360* won the US big time, so this is a change for them.

That being said, the Xbone IS having healthy sales so I guess there isn't much to worry about for him. Halo collection will absolutely help things.

That Frank dude was terrible, though. Total buzzkill.

Actually Stinkles you were awesome too. Great segment.
 
Really digging Phil. Him and Frank on the Giantbomb stream were awesome. He seems like such a great character to be around and really has a passion for games. It's refreshing.

He might be the best company head I've seen in a long time, he's like Shu but good looking and easy to understand.

Link? I can't tell which video it is on their site.
 
"I didn't want to take shots at anyone else" - take notes, Mr House. Or at least learn how to do it masterfully like Tretton.
 
He might not care about fanboy bullshit or forum banter, but he sure as hell (and so do his bosses and investors) care about kicking Sony's ass

What are you saying ethomaz lol
 
It's the right attitude. Caring about a console war isn't going to change the fact that PS4 is selling far more right now, actions speak louder than words and as long as he cares about the right things such as exclusives, then eventually the console war might become more even.
