He congratulates Sony on a really good console exclusive. Ok? All of those games you mentioned are extremely good by most gamers standards. People are cheerleading for the company, Some are figuratively worshipping them with the upmost sincerity. But its problematic when Phil gives Sony a pat on the back?
What makes this sad for the most part isn't that the gaming media frequently post every tweet about him sneezing. The fact that so many people make it newsworthy themselves is, quite genuinely, sad.
Yes it makes perfect sense for Spencer to say there is no console war whilst Microsoft attacks in every opportunity possible. Spencer controls a mere division of Microsoft. Microsoft in general still does whatever it feels like and still has their hands in Xbox. Not saying Phil is a puppet, but he doesn't have as much free reign or control as you make it seem.
