"It's really game first, not platforms first"

And people are going to praise Phil for "caring" about gamers when a few years ago it was all about exclusives and putting Xbox gamers first. lol
 
At the 12 minute mark he distinguishes a difference between the Xbox hardware and the Xbox platform…like they are two different things.

This is exactly what I hear from my 8th grade students. We talk about games and they tell me they play Roblox. I ask them on what system and they tell me, "Roblox". The same is true with Fortnite. They play the creative levels and tell me the system is Fortnite.

It seems like Microsoft is going down this path, especially with them doing an upgrade to their cloud network.

lol i guess by "people" you mean handful of residents rats around here. no one is buying anything coming out of this fraud's mouth.
 
Dudes a fraud. Took me a couple of years to come round but the guys a cunt.

Reminds me of Tony Blair.
He probably single handely kept Xbox in business and somehow convinced Microsoft to Invest 100+ billion in gaming. I've never owned an Xbox in my life, but gaming would look dramatically different if it wasn't for Phil
 
I suppose it's also Ozempic.. but that is a face of someone so defeated that he has 'only' (A LOT OF QUOTES, OF COURSE) has his golden parachute left. I mean, everything he planned for domination (we know MS, a healthy business is not enought, it NEEDS to destroy it's rivais) backfired is a spectacular way....
 
I'll believe when you port FH5 to ps5 and Switch 2 I'll be more then happy to buy it since I only had 7 days with it back in 2022.
 
At the very most, he has implied it repeatedly. I'd rather he show some balls and be explicitly clear with Xbox fans.

Xbox fans absolutely deserve to hear the full truth. These are people putting money into the ecosystem, keeping it (barely) alive. Be up front and clear with them. Like I think most people get what's going on, but they should still settle it and make it 100% transparent.

Yeah, folks like Parris keep asking him the same question over and over hoping he will just man up and state it plainly. But he never does.

Even if it is just an ozemic face it should be cause for concern.

People are throwing this stuff in their bodies without any knowledge of the potential long term ill-effects.

It's sad that people seem to lack the necessary discipline to just eat less (and well) while also exercising more.

Ah yes, good guy Phil, the one that cares about us, "the gamers" ! One of us one of us !

This is the new spin i see after everything else has failed, and the worst part is, the usual fans are just gonna eat it up, you know, the ones that used to cheer about the Tflop advantage with the infinite system wars before release, about the Actiblizz acquisition and how "dead" the opposition would become because of it etc etc...

You can't make this shit up, it's been bullshit PR after bullshit PR with this guy for the past 5+ years, at this point it's just comedic not mention, fuel for the most hardcore of the green fanboys as to have something to hold on to and frankly, it's beyond pathetic.

The used car salesman of the gaming world

It was all about exclusives a few years ago? They haven't had exclusives for a lot longer than that.

Pretty much. Imagine an Xbone gen with Donny at the helm for its entirety. No One X, probably no BC, no GamePass, and then no Series X. Lame.
 
Nothing new under the sun, as I've said in the past:

Don't worry, The Ultimate Used Car Salesman™ still has a few members of his defense force fighting the fools fight, they will go down with the ship completely delusional and oblivious to the fact that their blind loyalty helped sink it 👌

Gears on PS5 will be fun 🥳
 
I'm just gonna copy paste my earlier comment on X/Twitter here:

It is somewhat a shift towards a better direction which I applaud. I do still think (no doubt) that the "XBOX console" brand will suffer because of this direction, but in the end Microsoft could gain big $$$ in a larger market.
 
Wish he would just come out and say "we are primarily a third party publisher now".

I wish he would come out and say "My ass is tired and I am handing over the reigns to someone else"

Though hard to walk away from jobs that pays 8 figures (at least used to pay that dunno what he makes now)

Biggest fraud Microsoft ever had to deal with. At the end of all these outrageous acquisitions in the gaming industry... still comes in DEAD LAST yet again, and now Microsoft's upper management is taking over the driving seat from Phil to force Xbox to become the next Sega. ROFLMFAO!!!

Xbox putting all of its exclusives on PlayStation, GTA6 on PS5 Pro being the definitive console experience, and all the awesome Chinese, Korean, and Japanese games with exceptional quality and production values coming to the system with all of them being PS5 Pro Enhanced, AND, the overwhelming majority NOT coming to Xbox Series. PS5 will 100% surpass PS4.

All this happened while Sony fumbled their 1st party studios for half a generation...Talk about being the luckiest son of a bitch to the motherfucking teeth! :messenger_grinning_sweat:

So you're going to pretend Phil Spencer never made this statement?

This is about delivering great exclusive games on platforms where Game Pass exists



Are you going to pretend he didn't stop the development of the PS5 version of Starfield? Or changed the contract for Indiana Jones?

There is nothing to applaud. The original plan backfired and now they are stumbling their way to find a place in the industry.

It already has.

but in the end Microsoft could gain big $$$ in a larger market.
As a publisher, MS's track record has been awful. Zenimax has always been mid-tier and ABK has been working on overdrive mode.

right now, the Xbox future (as a publisher) is pretty rough.

He ain't looking so good so he may be walking away sooner rather than later. But I do hope he is ok.
 
Not trying to be an ass here but why does phil spencer go on these xbox fanboy podcasts and shows and consistently give them publicity. And what's the benefit for phil to give a dude with less than 3k subs his time of day? It literally makes no sense from a business perspective to do this type of crap at all but if he is going to do it then he should only be going on shows that have a big following.

Are you going to pretend MS had exclusives before Bethesda? lol

Spencer still makes GAF lose their marbles.
 
I found it interesting during the direct showcase they showed PS5 as a platform for the games they announce. Meanwhile Playstation doesn't show Xbox as a platform for any of the same games being announced in their trailers.
