Not really Phil's day today, is it?

He honestly sounds like one of those Xbox ambassador twitter accounts. Embarrassing.

It was all Phil all along.

 

[DrFigs]

Not him calling games "content"....

yeah this is sad lol

 

[Portugeezer]

Holy shit. Bernoulli 's having a field day with these hot take Phil The Gamer threads.

Let him cook.

 

[DrFigs]

only 5 mil for baldur's gate 3. what a fumble. the devs could have gotten way more

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Oh yeah. Just think of all those awesome games from rares ip that we've gotten ... we've definitely gotten 1!

 

[Salty Popsicle]

I want whatever drugs Phil is on.

From all of these leaked emails and memos, it must be some good shit.

No better drug than knowing you make in one year what most people make in a decade.

 

[Varteras]

Someone needs to come get Phil spencer and take him back to the old folkes home

 

[FeralEcho]

Lies of P exposed

Post of the day!

5M for BG 3 and 30M for Gotham Knights

Respect yourself, Larian

Banjo Kazooie and Conker be like

 

[Mr Moose]

5M for BG 3 and 30M for Gotham Knights

Respect yourself, Larian

Might be what MS expects. It's not even on Xbox right now.

 

[Klayzer]

That's the only retort they have. How much money Fake Gamer Phil is making. Classic Xfan deflector post.

 

[Salty Popsicle]

5M for BG 3 and 30M for Gotham Knights

Respect yourself, Larian

Unfortunately, brand name matters a lot more than game quality when it comes to these things. Now that Larian has undoubtedly proven themselves with BG3, expect the value of their inclusion into a sub-service to increase astronomically.

God what a mess. All this “gamers” posts from MS and a future from gamers etc. This is getting worse and worse for MS. I can sew him stepping down….but….money is money, who knows.

 

[Elog]

I tried to stay away from the "Phil's email" threads but this is quite something.

He has seemingly no idea what their problems are and as a consequence of that what tasks he has in front of him. I am stunned. He is way closer to Baghdad Bob than I thought was possible.

 

[IFireflyl]

This sounds like the ramblings of someone with anti-competitive intentions

Unless I am missing something, isn't this email the smoking gun that proves that Microsoft is acquiring studios with the intent to foreclose on the competition? This is exactly what the FTC and (originally) the CMA were afraid of with the Activision acquisition.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Somebody must be off their rocker to value suicide squad at 250 million.

 

[GHG]

Phil Spencer: Engagement is our oxygen

Bernoulli - Phil Spencer is my oxygen

In that case we must keep Phil around at all costs.

I'm having trouble thinking of a console boss, who's done less with so much more resources. His private answers to all, lets buy up the whole industry.

Shhhh.

 

[Adam_802]

These leaks legit make me want to sell my Xbox. I want no part supporting this disgusting future they're planning.

Fucking subscription garbage. Bunch of Kumbaya play everything everywhere nonsense. Consolidation. No compete. No ambition. Shit ass exclusives. All digital garbage. Cloud based trash. Buying Nintendo. Buying Activision. Buying Bethesda. Buying Warner Brothers. Poor studio management. 1 proper exclusive every 2-3 years.

Fuck you

Feel better?

 

[Zok310]

Wtf is Phil smoking ?

 

[TransTrender]

MAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAUMAU

 

[Slayer-33]

What the HEK is going with Phil

 

[Jigsaah]

Would anybody expect Phil to say anything different? It's Phil without the PR filter. He's been saying this shit for years.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Oh, the CMA will love the end of this email.

 

[Flutta]

Feel better?

You better leave gaf for a day or two or maybe a week. These threads won’t stop and i believe it’s better for you to go with your green rats bretheren and be on the sidelines for a while.

once again proving that the FTC court case was a joke, more so the judicial system as a whole

 

[Virex]

 

[Banjo64]

This series of leaks is extremely damaging for Spencer’s reputation.

Comes across as a deluded clown, whilst confirming everyone’s worst fears about Microsoft’s ambitions.

It's no wonder why the Xbox gaming division is a sinking ship.

Lol i'm good, but thanks for the concern

Yes. This just shows you how corrupt the judicial system and how powerful MS influnce is.

MS has politicians in their pockets and the FTC can do fuck all about it. The FTC is there for show more or less.

 

[outsida]

Phil on that stuff aint he?

 

[tryDEATH]

It's abundantly clear a larger majority of people posting aren't familiar with corporate culture and everything he says is just your everyday email exchanges. This sort of confidence in a cut through company like MS is a per-requisite for any sort of higher position let alone a leadership role.

 

[buenoblue]

 

[Crayon]

Fuck this guy.

Someone help me think of any person in gaming who is willing and able to cause more damage.

Yeah, lotta obvious bad faith trolling. Par for the course though, not really unexpected

 

[Thirty7ven]

A joke because the judge was more worried about not creating precedence than anything else. She took a shit on everything the FTC said, documents, witnesses, you name it.

FTC focused too much on market theory sure, but the way the judge acted was ridiculous.

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

Phil Spencer in a nutshell. Dude really sniffs his own farts and loves the hell out of it. Unbelievable delusion.

 

[BossLackey]

could really do with a single thread to chuck all this stuff in

At this point I could use a folder system.

its %100 cocaine talk. with healthy dose of intoxication from one's own fart added

 

[JohnnyFootball]

Jim Ryan would do all of this if he could.

"I want to make it clear to Google, Amazon etc that you are NOT going to catch us in gaming.....I just want to put us out of reach".

Same old Microsoft. They don't like having serious competition. They want to crush all competition under their boot and then swivel it into the dirt for good measure.
