Thread 717557308

You are the CEO of Xbox, in 2011, what would you do to guarantee Xbox superiority against Playstation ?

>>717557308 (OP)
I covertly fund a splinter cell of insane purple haired libtard communist "sony fans" to harass, shams and condemn sony employees for daring to create anything remotely appealing

>>717557308 (OP)
Can we make it 2009 instead so I can have Kinect cancelled?

>>717557308 (OP)
commit to full dudebro attitude & never kneel to censorship, while funding japanese xbox one exclusives to save the west.

>>717558090
No, you're supposed to handle the Kinect failure while trying to make sure the Xbox One is not a disastrous mess

>>717557308 (OP)
kinect for xbox one was good, if they never had negative stigma from 360 it would've been a hit

>>717557308 (OP)
Every owned IP is exclusive to Xbox. Consoles, not other places; I'm selling my platform with the hook of unique software it has to attract audiences

>>717557308 (OP)
No kinect and free online. Also not kill Mixer.

You're Welcome, Xbox Won.

>>717558297
That's easy. The Kinect was a financial success on the 360. All I have to do is reassure my audience that we are keeping the kinect far away from the Xbox One (I'm not changing the name because I actually like the name XBone).

>Fire Don Mattrick into the sun
>Dial back the Kinect, just keep it around for occasional Dance Central releases, experimental indies and dashboard voice navigation, that's it
>Instead of calling the next console the Xbox One, call it the Xbox 720
>Console launch price is $349.99
>Don't try to add that always online or no game sharing bullshit that absolutely murdered the reveal of the One
>Get Rare working on reviving some of their franchises to help diversify the Xbox catalogue so that it isn't just the dudebro shooter machine
>Same with working with Japanese devs, actually push to make Xbox a thing in that market
>Use infinite Bill Gates money to buy Fromsoft right before they blow up in popularity
>Too late to cancel Halo 4, but after it shits the bed fire everyone at 343
>Make Phantom Dust 2 a thing, doesn't help the company at all, this is just for me

gg no re sony

>>717557308 (OP)
Price and specs similar to ps4, none of thats don bullshit (thats costed the generation) panders to the public thats made 360 the suscess and not some inexistent demography

>>717557308 (OP)
>Do literally everything in my power to get Bungie back, make sure to do massive quality control and make Destiny an Xbox exclusive so that it will be the next Halo or Gears of War
>Drop the Kinect bullshit and make the Xbox as powerful, if not, more powerful than the PS4.
>Hardware should resemble the Xbox One S, but we would call it the Xbox 1080
>Xbox 1080 - because it plays games in 1080p at 60FPS, and because 3 x 360 = 1080
>Instead of wasting $4 billion on Minecraft, use that money to build new studios and make acquisitions on developers like Respawn, Playground Games, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Remedy, Undead Labs and have them develop polished, AAA games that don't fucking suck

>>717557308 (OP)
Sony was planning to put in no used games DRM and online only for the PS4, Xbox only needed to let Sony go first for E3 and they'll easily have lost the whole generation.

>>717559923
>There a reality tha was sony the one with the disastrous conference

>>717559587
phantom dust remake was already a thing approved by mattrick, cancelled by phil. If anyone you should fire it's phil

>>717559587
It's hilarious that you think Phil isn't part of the problem.

>>717559829
>Xbox 1080
bruh no one of the kids can pronounce this shit

>>717557308 (OP)
make games

>>717560212
I always thought phil was the one carrying xbox?

>>717557308 (OP)
Make games
It's literally that simple and Xbox is addicted to failing at it

>>717560469
No one gives a shit when games go to pc and other consoles

>>717560852
We're talking about 2011, try reading next time.
This was still true of the Xbox brand in 2011.
The entire 360 generation coasted on Halo and Gears.

>>717557308 (OP)
make online gaming free, however make paid online a proto gamepass/games for gold, where you can keep 2 free games each month but also able to play a handful of games for free

Instead of Kinect I would make a rumble pack for your dick. Secret Cortana level for Halo 4

>>717560212
Was Phil even in a prominent position at Xbox in 2011? Maybe I could fix him before he gets handed the CEO keys and piledrives Xbox into the grave.

>>717557308 (OP)
Just start seeking out new franchises as the old ones age, keep a flow of quality exclusives. That’s it. Sony is winning because they have the same games + a few that aren’t on Xbox. 2-3 games per year that are nominated for game awards, even if they don’t win. That’s all it takes to dominate.

>>717561827
head of xbox game studios back when it was microsoft studios

>>717562247
Ah shit, didn't know that.
Sorry Phil.

I'm afraid that by 2011 it was owari da for any JP support. For the first half of the gen 360 actually did okay there (comparatively) for a while until the main MS branch checked in on the JP branch, saw all the niche anime shit they were releasing and was like "no no no stop publishing that garbage they want COD and FIFA" and it's never recovered

>>717562843
There's still time to mend the relationship by 2011.
Just greenlight whatever the JP Branch wants and bring in the guy who told them to stop publishing that stuff and have him beg for forgiveness then commit sodoku in front of the JP staff.

cave and mages were making exclusive games for xbox still. The only problem that they didn't translate to the west, xbox should've taken the reigns to do that themselves, that would also cockblock future ports to playstation, switch and pc

>>717557308 (OP)
Bail out and cede the console market to toddlers and snoys for awhile. Focus on windows first and neuter steam before they become ascendant.
Only once the PC ecosystem is completely gatekept by us, would we resume manufacturing xboxes based on the average hardware specs the xbox store reports.

>>717557308 (OP)
Xbox One must have backwards compatibility.

>>717559923
didn't ps4, ps3 literally have cbomb while xbox doesn't? How come no one switched sides when the truth came out?

>>717557308 (OP)
Prime my compny to be purchased by CCP plants because the West has no laws against foreign subversion
>Get caugt
lol
lmao enjoy bugs

... Xbox Ten-eighty?
