Lol.
Fair play to him thats pretty funny. Was the mouthpeice during xboxs best ever generation.
Hopefully most of the comments are in jest but considering some people across forums, maybe not.

Major is about to get a taste of pure unhinged zealotry. I suspect a Xbox too tweet any minute now.

Major Nelson just shot himself in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about corporate culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is at Nintendo where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over at Xbox, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the Xbox fanbase, after reading this, is not going to want to follow Major Nelson on any social media account, nor will they like and share any of his posts. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Major Nelson has alienated an entire fanbase with this move.
Nelson, publicly apologize and delete this tweet or you can kiss your reputation goodbye.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about PlayStation, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

Major Nelson is gone.
We're witnessing the birth of Colonel Nelson.

I don't get the reference. Unless there is some sort of sarcasm behind it, its strange that this guy gives a heads up about Playstation availability. He has many followers and was a long time Xbox veteran.

Well, I guess that confirms that Major Nelson got the boot from Xbox Probably salty - especially after all that restructuring at Xbox and Microsoft Gaming.

He’s too old to be hired by SIE, so that’s really no option here.
JR is about 100, so who's to say he's too old?

PlayStation saluted me when I left Xbox. There is mutual professional respect. So let’s just all get along and have fun.

brah it was a job. LMAOOOOO. There’s no loyalty for him to have towards a freaking box. He probably feels free to finally troll the dorks following him.
perfect.

I bet he was dying to get this out of his system. To be able to feel truly free from microsofts grasp lol

The tweets of a sacked man. Imagine getting sacked from Xbox management when Aaron Greenberg, Phil Spencer and Matt Booty still have a job.
We have one Larry Hagman character on the team.

Japanese Culture (I'm an Expert) refers to a copypasta which spread primarily on NeoGAF making fun of a poster who claimed to be an expert on Japanese cult

Do we know where he went after MS? Maybe nowhere yet?

He always struck me as the kind of guy who would go the toilet just because he needed to fart.

Well, the slim technically has pseudo online drm, so he's probably into it.

Imagine your job being to promote a brand that was getting its ass kicked for years and then finally being free to say what you really want. Guy must be relieved. I bet Phil spencer can't wait to get out aswell. Guy looks frustrated and tired after running xbox all these years. He looks like he aged 15 years in only 2 actual years.
