Epic did not pay enough for exclusivity? And Xbox mkt funding? Maybe... it was mismanagement?
Too expensive hardware when others offer the same or more for less? Good work, Green Team.
You want a PC.
No Tameem, no fun.

Well... this is like Xbox One again, but without an impressive Xbox One X to show visits for a couple of years.

BTW, many first gen Xbox games and great sagas like Project Gotham Racing were born in Dreamcast. Xbox was born thanks to Dreamcast.
"It is you, not me".
Two consoles... two Xbox Series... One of them, inferior to latest generation Xbox One X in too many aspects... Who in his mind though this was a good idea?
The money, the team effort and everything invested on Xbox Series S marketing, logistics, assistance, etc. could have made a greater Xbox Series X and more/better games. The responsible for selling Xbox Series S with inferior specs to Xbox Series X should be exposed, so we have a face to blame of Xbox dead.
That's why Phil included Bonnie Ross for that mission...
Spencer WAS part of Don Matrick team on Xbox.
Add the "Baldur's Gate 3" has not enough quality for Xbox under Bonnie Ross opinion... as well as others that included hundreds of millions in promotion of games that really suck.
Microsoft people did not learn a shit of 360 early days... well... wait... early Xbox 360 and later firs gen Xbox people are not in Microsoft since mid 360 days...
(Phil 'wait for next year' Spencer)
Microsoft made the 71,933 millions deal because it was already started and, with Microsoft, it is not possible to go back and stop it. Does anybody think that deal would be an option in 2023 or 2024, with the nowadays sitiation of the industry? And in 2022? No, nobody would pay that money for Activision-blizzard-king... because it would not be recovered in more than 20 years of really hard and good work. Everybody are selling for less, not...
But... Phil Spencer was the "second" aboard for Xbox One launch and before. He was only the face that come after Don Mattrick. Phil was in one charge of Xbox before 2014, responsable for meany Xbox One launch and before "things" many did not like.
Add SEGA Dreamcast sequels or something like that... and some Rare titles that were in development, but were mismanage by Microsoft.

Phil Spencer asking Sarah Bond who was in charge when they decided to not support Arrowhead Game Studios in the development of their game and if it was the same as with Larian Studios and Baldur's Gate 3.

Do you remember when SEGA of America and SEGA Japan "created" Dreamcast?
