I'd say Demons Souls is an exclusive system seller.

Phil has showed results though.  Just look at the number of first party studios MS had before Phil took the wheel  and how many they have now. Its just that the studios unfortunately werent able to ship this holiday.

It’s proven by ps2. People are sold on promise and anticipation way more than on delivery.

hes right, but it would be nice to have something to carry momentum

He's literally answering questions he's being asked. If you really think Phil is hurting the Xbox brand, then I just don't know what to say. Imagine if Don was still in charge, Xbox might not being be around anymore. At least the future looks bright for the Xbox brand, where at the beginning of last gen, there was no way anyone could say the same thing confidently. 

Don might have been much worse, does not take away from phil being bad. And I dont mean the way he has handled xbox, cuz there has been some improvements even tho none of their acquisitions have bared any fruit and dont seem to untill at least 2022. But his constant PR spin is detrimental. Theres no need for interviews or 20 tweets a day. He is like the trump of gaming. 

I don’t see why not. You may not be in the know but reliable insiders say the game is content complete. Given it was meant to be out by now that makes sense.

Anything now is purely technical, which is where 99% of the July show criticisms come from. The point of the delay is so that it wouldn’t be poorly received, so that comment makes little sense. 

Well I mean he's not wrong but still it's a bit dirty to say that.

Grounded even in early access has been played by 5 million people :). But I can see how it’s frustrating. When he talks people like us dissect it. Those who don’t want to hear him are suckered in to the conversation, just like now lol. 

In the end his interviews get us gamers talking Xbox like it or not. While Sony stays largely quiet. In the end I think many are jelly only Xbox execs talking...because I’m 100% sure if Sony execs talked more you guys would eat it up. 

He is right. No one(who is sensible) is arguing if the ps5 or series x has the better launch lineup. Ps5 smokes the series X without a doubt. With that said, does anyone think if the ps5 didn't have Demon Souls, Miles Morales, and Sackboy at launch, it would have really effected the sales of the console or the system wouldn't have sold out? No, because the brand is more powerful than any launch lineup, and there is enough good 3rd party games to satisfy the majority of owners for the time being. Same is said for Xbox. What matters more is the 1st year of titles and going forward after that. When you look at the lineup for Xbox in the next 1-3 years, there is really nothing to worry about. I can say that confidently where last gen, I couldn't.
