Neil Druckmann is the one to blame here.Jim Ryan can't keep getting away with this.
Quick! Let us express our sincere concern! Doom and gloom at Xbox!!1!
No, not really. People come and go at big companies. This happens all the time.

Imagine if Spencer left. A lot of people would be on suicide watch.And I can't imagine it getting much worse at Microsoft anyway.
We have an Ouya emoji?
That means you're nextI didn't realize his power was mighty enough to destroy a VP at Xbox.
And I can't imagine it getting much worse at Microsoft anyway.
I do agree, but at the same time don't downplay the importance of solid strategic top level leadership with the correct vision.Quick! Let us express our sincere concern! Doom and gloom at Xbox!!1!

I thought that was a glitch on my side. Truly the ascendant console for the true ÜbermenschIt's so glorious, that it is ascending!
So long and don't let the door hit you on the way out..shawn is gona be the new VP.
Wait. Who's Shawn?Yeah, things like that DO happen in this industry.
Shawn Laydown?Wait. Who's Shawn?
Oh him.Shawn Laydown?
Holy shit... Now that is hilariousMicrosoft's official statement "His replacement will be Mr Jason Hole. Together Mr. Booty and Mr. Hole will lead Xbox to a great next generation!!"
I was an original xbox/360 fan, so yeah, they sucked this generation.
Probably an internal power-struggle!
He seemed like a nice guy, in fairness. Hope he gets a great job somewhere.... not Stadia.
Never liked the guy since I seen him live stream God of war on mixer all he did was hate on it just seemed like he was pissed that Sony had a great game and Microsoft kept delaying crackdown 3
Maybe MS is "Very Nervous" about Scarlett.
To be fair gaf did need to burn to get rid of its cancerOmg, I remember this fool:

Omg, I remember this fool:
He should leave. Xbox needs a leader who is more of a visionary and a shark. He's done great things that are more consumer friendly. But they haven't come close to making all the moves they did during the 360 days. They have few big failed projects under their belt, they bought some mediocre studios and a streaming website that will probably fail. They have a lack of vision when it comes to end-to-end user experiences with their products this generation. As a predominantly software/tech company they are really lacking when it comes to creating/sharing tech that enables their developers to achieve better results. Sony made it no secret they have a dedicated team in California (essentially the software capital of the world today) with hardcore engineers dedicated doing research and development of tools/techniques for Sony studios. Whereas Microsoft owns a bunch of disjointed studios with games full of bugs. Phil Spencer was the head for most of this generation and he pretty much failed on every front compared to the 360. Some of it is not his fault but nothing he's done so far has inspired any confidence in him to make the impact they should be making.Imagine if Spencer left. A lot of people would be on suicide watch.
