Lmao they're handing some billion dollar property to a fucking niggress? Are these people insane? Maybe bill really does take his own vaccines

Phil lied gamers died

>>714302796 (OP)
she can't fuck up more than Phil and Donny, right?

Xbox is saved
>womeme replacing him
Oh never mind

How he kept his job all these years is a mystery

>>714302796 (OP)
>smooth transition
with how terrible Xbox has been handeled since he took over I can't even imagine what they would consider a bad transition.
Like him setting the HQ on fire as he leaves?

>>714303056
>and her team

lmao, I wonder who's the real CEO behind that scapegoat.

>>714302796 (OP)
finally a womyn of color in charge, now things will improve.

>>714302796 (OP)
>after next generation Xbox
So he doesn't plan to retire then?

>>714303096
he got lucky because of how much Don Mattrick fucked up so he looked like a god in comparison.
glad people are finally realizing how much of a fucking joke phil is.

>>714302796 (OP)
She is qt.

It's so over.

>Microsoft has no plans to make a next gen xbox
>Phil therefore never retires

>>714302796 (OP)
it has never been more over than this

At this point does it even matter? Unless they rehire Peter Moore, does it even fucking matter?

>>714302968
lol… lmao

>>714302796 (OP)
He never seemed to know what to really do with Xbox. Just giving devs time and money doesn't lead to good games being released.,

Phil "WAIT UNTIL NEXT E3!" Spencer, kek

>>714302796 (OP)
>nigger jeet
nice, that's what xbox needs

>>714304041
if anything he showed to everyone that the so called "dev crunch" is necessary, otherwise you have studios doing nothing for 7 years

>>714302796 (OP)
>Phil has been fired
Damn. I didn't think MS would actually do it. Since it specifically says he'll be "retiring" from his role as CEO of Microsoft Gaming, I wonder if that means he'll still be working there in some capacity or if he's completely gone from Xbox in a few years.

>DEI hire is going to replace him
the downward spiral never stops

>>714304041
don't worry, tes6 will save a new Xbox.

>>714302796 (OP)
what race is she?
black/mexican/white goblino mix with some jeet in it?

>>714304369
the craziest thing is that he has been working at Microsoft since the early 90s

>>714302907
what qualifications do you have?

>>714302968
More than phil? possible. NO ONE can fuck up more than the Don.

From Windows Central they are saying Phil has no intention on stepping down

He's crashing with no survivors, lol

>>714302796 (OP)
It's amazing how long this guy has been allowed to drive Xbox into the fucking ground and it's even more amazing that the DEI hire mystery meat woman they're replacing him with will somehow be even worse. Retard company.

>>714304804
>upset that his no u failed

I am not lying

Looks like this isn't true:

>>714305220
You were upset when I said I was more qualified than the new CEO what are you talking about? Your no u failed lol

>>714302796 (OP)
He knows the ship is done for, he's tired to bailing water and doesn't want to be the name associated with the dead brand. After all his talk, he's a coward for not going down with the ship.

>>714304238
Just a manager that keeps devs in line is enough. Looking at 343i, they had the most important title for the Xbox, got as much time and money as they wanted, even developed their own engine and produced dogshit in the end.
And after Halo Infinite said they won't use the Slipspace engine anymore but use UE. Millions and years of dev time just wasted for nothing.

Microsoft shareholders hate Phil. He wasted 70 billion dollars on Activision Blizzard when those 70 billion dollars could have been used to forcibly purchase OpenAi.

>>714304596
Im white, used to be an edgy dudebro, and unlike them, I actually have played xbox games and cared for the brand. I also have made a strategic list on how xbox can turn the tables, and posted it on an ancient /v/ thread. If you want to see that list, tell me so that pull it from the archives

Microsoft has always been the retard company. They dropped ZUNE before Spotify existed. They went on a video game publisher buying spree instead of an AI company buying spree. Microsoft could have bought OpenAI before it became too popular. They also gave up on buying Discord for 10 billion

absolutely crazy that this guy has been in the business for 11 years, like a huge chunk of his life, and microsoft has literally fucking zero to show for his entire time there. that dude just coasted through literally 11 years of xbox not having a single reason to be bought over a pc or any other competing platform. it's actually insane that this dude got to have a job doing basically fuck all for 11 years, racking up millions of dollars in ceo money, to bring zero to the table, and no one fucking bats an eye.

>>714303353
Cutting the fat in these orgs about time only took Nintendo pricing out Xbox from the scene.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

dude, he has been working at xbox since the very start but in different positions, you see his name popping in games from the OG XBOX and shit and he still fucks up time and time again after all that "experience"

>>714304796
The person who came up with the non compete clause should have had their legs broken and then be told to compete in a hundred meter dash where they would be shot in the head if they lose.

>We don't want your services anymore

Fuck that. Anyone who agrees with that should be forced to compete with each other for food in a pit.

this is retarded. phil is almost fucking 60. he is going to retire soon or get moved into a 'ambassador' role so the nigress can take over and take the fall for xbox.

>>714308104
Has been since Finish the Fight included a brand new studio to milk someone else's creation.

>>714304796
They are literally 2 big companies in the console industry (Nintendo has its own niche). If you can't work with the competitor, there's nowhere else to work

>>714307526
>An anon whos got some ideas and played xbox games
vs
>A random niggress who barely touched a 360 controller, and is there because she is a DEI hire and because she sucked off the right guys
I dont see that victory of yours. No wonder why the xbox brand is falling apart

>>714307919
knowing he's been there even longer in lower positions and somehow lucked his way into a ceo role, i literally do not blame him in the slightest. i would do the same thing, rack up insane amounts of dough appearing as an authority figure until i was found out somehow, but this dudes passive attitude somehow keeps him under the radar in comparison to all of microsofts fuck ups, it genuinely appears like he's the one guy doing the least amount of damage to the company.

it's like an old movie idea. bumbling retard somehow becomes the boss and has to maintain the illusion that he deserves to be there. hilarity ensues, only in this case, nothing hilarious ever happened. he just actually maintained the illusion and no one questioned it because everyone below him is massively unqualified for every position they wormed their way in to.

Sounds to me like a case of the "Peter Principle"
>The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter, which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to "a level of respective incompetence": employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent, as skills in one job do not necessarily translate to another

>>714307620
...maybe...

>>714308419
If the idea guy had good ideas he'd be the one who worked his way up to CEO of a gaming company. even phil spencer has you beat, merely because they put in the work and wit to accomplish what you simply could never

>>714308603
You're the one highlighting race. in fact when prompted to highlight anything else about yourself, all you could think of was your race and gender because you legitimately have achieved nothing. It's kind of sad. You can only see yourself as basic.

>>714306421
This is the guy they go to when they need to know what to post on the 'now hiring' page for the job description. He's the one telling them to list "20 years of chat GPT experience required"

>>714309610
Spencer and that nigress got leverage because they probably used to be CEOs in other companies, but in reality, Spencer is literally a fall guy for Xbox's endless mismanagement since the 360, and Sarah Bond is literally a DEI hire that wont be taking any substantial brand decision and she is there for the show. Microjeets are in control right now

Nope. They were in the right place, the right time and took the opportunity.
If they were actually smart, they would have saved Xbox. All these retarded "big spender" moves Spencer was pulling all these years, were so retarded and fruitless, its amazing he is still the face of Xbox. I literally trust /v/ more than Spencer to fix Xbox

I called that SNK attempting to market a niche fighting game by putting down God knows how much money to put CR7 in the game and advertising it at Wrestlemania and several other wastes of money were just that and wouldn't help sell the game, then their CEO stepped down after the game flopped so I am demonstrably more qualified than at least one utterly retarded game company CEO. Basically I know that you should be in touch with your target demographic and not be a fucking retard, which qualifies me further than her and everyone who thought she would be the right replacement and apparently most of the industry.

>>714307753

No Don Mattrick KILLED the Xbox. The Xbox One was one of the worst console presentations ever. And Sony mocked them as well. Remember the ps4 sharing games video.
