Negative. If he engaged in it, at any point, he's being hypocritical here. No amount of excusing it will eliminate that. He may have had a change of heart (market positions can obviously effect that), but he certainly can be linked directly to a scenario he now condemns.

We still had to promote it because the deal had already been made. If he didnt he probably would have been fired of even arrested for breaking a deal that probably had lots money involved. If he didnt make the deal and became head when it was all said and done he has to still market it because its his job.

Actually I haven't played Forza, it looks kind of cool but mostly the Horizon series.  Want to pick up 3 eventually. 

Uhm...ya....because critics are DEFINITELY IN TUNE with how gamers feel. Gears of War forumns are all positive. Game's population is all positive. game's sales are all positive. Lol. 

Wait so you havent played forza but called it a shitty sports game lol. 

Gears 4 has a 4.5/5 on the Xbox store(only people that own the game can rate it). It was the 9th best selling digital game on consoles for the month of Nov.

I was obviously commenting on the repitition dude. You don't have to take everything as a personal attack against your favorite brands and/or franchises. You get what I mean though, and it doesn't really change my argument. The only time Microsoft delivers a project on time is when it's a racing title or gears or halo. And even then, the latter 2 usually need to be delayed because of their lack of features on  launch. 

Gears of War 4 sales have been more than dissapointing. The game's physical sales were only achieved because of it being massively bundled as well as a ... get this ... THIRTY FOUR DOLLAR price reduction just close to two months after release. That is TERRIBLE. It also got that reduction digitally. Rainbow Six Siege was played more than Gears of War 4 online last week, AFTER RAINBOW SIX was renewed as a 60$ title. It was also bought more digitally in that time frame. Gears of War is under performing, and as great as it is that Microsoft is trying to make the game a success story(to be fair it isn't a flop just a bit mediocre in sales), it's still not doing amazingly.
