Who did more damage to Xbox's console business: Don Mattrick or Phil Spencer?

I'm referring to Xbox 360 after 2009 in regards to software and the PS3 ended up having way better exclusives when it was all said and done. The multi-platform difference was small between ps3 and 360 after 2007 with a few exception and didn't mean anything when you have faulty hardware and have to pay for online. 

The 360 hardware issues went on way too long and it wasn't resolved until 2009 last I checked. The pay for online model still makes me mad to this day and wish Xbox will get rid of that crap.

Despite my name, I'm not a blind fanboy. I think playstation is a shell of its former self and has nothing like game pass to make it enticing to me.

Witcher 2, Alan Wake, Splinter Cell Conviction, Fable 3, Metro 2033, and Crackdown 2 were post-2009, in addition to Halo/Gears/Forza.

From late 2008 the Jasper model of 360 became available with a failure rate of under 4%; less than the fat PS3.

Crackdown 3 sucks and fable 3 was a disappointment. Metro 2033 was hardly a green game on metacritic during the 7th generation when journalists were more forgiving. Alan awake was a boring game.

Only good games you listed was splinter cell conviction and Witcher 2. Still pales in comparison to what PS3 offered and proving my point 360 second half was disappointing.

Also, I have to wait four years for Microsoft to fix their console and to buy it again? What a joke.
