Can't see any 180.
Even aron cheeseburgers response after grubb said they where dissapointed with sales didn't really address that specific point.
If the response was really that they’re happy with all metrics, why would you imagine retail sales aren’t included in that?
Grubb also admitted on Twitter that he has no idea what MS expectations for HFR were.
Amazing how a journalist reports two diametrically opposed news on a subject and just keeps going. Does that ever happen in any other news media?
Isn't he the same guy who said sales were disappointing and immediately had to walk it back with some lame ass video explaining how we all just took it the wrong way?
It’s Grubb. When he gets something wrong, he tries to weasel away.
- Claimed Starfield was planned for a November 2021 launch. Then tried to spin it as “plans change” when Schreier called him out on it.
- Mistook Coalition’s UE5 GDC demo as a new game, and then pivoted to claiming the game was canceled when he realized he was wrong.
And now this shit about MS ‘putting lofty sales expectation’ on an AA game they shadow-dropped.
He does get quite a decent amount of stuff right, especially around planned showcases etc. but he needs to own up when his predictions don’t pan out.
