Is this Phil Spencer's final test for Microsoft? Is his job on the line?

[S.T.A.G.E.]

Hes better than Mattrick, but he still has not fixed Microsoft's first party problem and keeps relying on third party to create IP (which means they are beholden to their effort and talents for sequels. They should've learend their lesson after they bought the Gears IP from Epic. Creative studios dont like to stay focused on one franchise forever.
