Man were we wrong to expect everything to change when he took over from Don Mattrick. Instead of things getting better by the year, it seems to get worse.
| Skeeuk said: Phil Spencer was wrong for the job from the start. He knows nothing and looks uncomfortable all the time. |
I think Phil knows whats popular with hardcore gamers, he knows cult classics like Phantom Dust, Crimson Skies and Lost Odyssey, but the Xbox division isn't getting the necessary fundings anymore from higher ups. He wished he could make sequels in those series, but the money just isn't there. The Xbone doesnt do well saleswise and new types of metrics like Maus were introduced to make it seem Xbox is doing better than ever. Their games are being put on Windows to make up for the loss in Xbox install base. The Xbox division is on a tight leash. MS higher ups want sure fire hits, no more risks. Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, J Allard, Peter Moore, those guys were different than the new ones.
