Anyone thinking Phil is being remotely genuine here needs a serious wake up call. Have you learned nothing? He knows some of you act like this so of course this is his response. Whereas in the past this might appear 'classy', now it just seems like pandering to his abnormally loyal fanbase.

Ah his fake "nice persona" online

Take lessons, Phil. He should be your coach.

I mean, the majority of the threads aren’t complimentary, and I’m not sure Microsoft PR is paying people here to lift his tweets and turn them into threads.

Threads that many of those who claim to hate hearing from him enthusiastically contribute to.

Well:

Jim was a key player in the success of the PlayStation brand, being there since before Sony's very first console launch and up until recently, five console generation later, leaving the company at the absolute top.

Nah man, something happened, it’s gotta be that.
Being 63 and next year marks 30 years at Sony has nothing to do with it…. I kid of course.
Good for him.

Mouth almighty has an opinion on everything.

One of these days, we'll have loose lipped execs unwittingly outing themselves as felons on x-twitter.

If they've got good lawyers, I wouldn't be surprised if they get away with it either.

 

[ArtHands]

What a great classy guy

 

[Sacred]

I knew he wouldn't be quiet even about this lmao

These responses by so many members in here are expected but completely embarrassing. It's just pathetic when people take their bias to this level.

I don't know why anyone is remotely surprised by his comments.

1) It's not unusual for a business leader to recognise other business leaders, in the gaming or any other industry. CEOs know each other, know how difficult the job is, and will usually have (at least) a grudging respect for their rivals.

2) Phil almost always says what he needs to say in any given circumstance, genuine or not
