Commitment to Game Pass still, absolutely no changes to Game Pass plus the teasing of a handheld device and Super Saiyan Xbox.

And XGS/Zenimax/Bethesda. No changes to my excitement for the games.

I'm feeling pretty optimistic but I never really cared much about multiplatform releases anyway.

Is Xbo planning to expand their portfolio? Feel like they mentioned something in there about expanding.. maybe i mis heard.

I really wouldnt mind if Sarah takes over. She has a lot of charisma.

Same, seeing a lot of people saying she came across better than Phil in this podcast, Lol.

I honestly half expected this would be where Phil announces he's stepping down and handing over to Sarah.

I'm good with Phil for now but a Sarah leadership would be interesting.

I'd like to see everything remain the same for at least another 3 years before any major leadership changes.

True, some people dip out after major acquisition closures, some stick around for stability though, it'd make more sense for him to leave shortly after the launch of the next Xbox (not the handheld but the beefy one).

Also, while Diablo IV on Game Pass is nice, makes me wonder why it's the first and not Crash Rumble 😭

I mean, it's still VERY nice but damn Rumble must be on its last legs, throw it a bone before it's too late.

Focus on hardware is important to the company, Game Pass is important to the company

🫡 it is just so much more fun in here compared to Playstation Nation.



Some of that regulatory work isn’t done like you mentioned, so what do you think about Apple’s changes for the DMA? And is there room for Xbox Cloud Gaming now on iOS?

There’s not room for us to monetize Xbox Cloud Gaming on iOS. I think the proposal that Apple put forward — and I thought Sarah Bond’s comments on this were right on — doesn’t go far enough to open up. In fact, you might even say they go the opposite direction in some way, but they definitely don’t go far enough to open up competition on the world’s largest gaming platform.

We will continue to work with regulators, and Apple and Google, to create a space for alternative storefronts. I’m a big fan of how Windows works, and you’ve got a Microsoft Store on Windows, you’ve got Steam, you’ve got the Epic Games Store, you’ve got GOG. You have alternatives, and I think alternative ways for people to buy things creates goodness for consumers and creators. I think the largest platform for gamers, which is mobile, should have the same.

You a big fan of open ecosystems on console hardware/handheld hardware as well, Phil?
