The thing that makes me laugh is how much people consider Phil Spencer the trustworthy new guy who seemingly can't do anything wrong.
He has been at Microsoft for literally decades. He joined in the 80's. He just wasn't head of Xbox.
Oh yeah but he didn't have the power to make decisions then right? Bullshit. He quickly became manager of Microsoft's game studios and according to interviews was the person primarily responsible for the mismanagement of Lionhead and Rare.
On top of all the problems Microsoft have as a company, from strict platform lock-in to straight up patent trolling to destroy rivals, why the fuck would I trust him? Because he isn't Don Mattrick? Sorry Xbox fans but that's not how it works.
And for the record, I don't trust Nadella 1 bit either.

I picked up the Broken Sword trilogy for 99p yesterday, should be good games to play with my girlfriend.
I keep seeing people say he's kept his promises but I'm not sure what any of them are. I remember in 2014 when he took over as head he promised it's all a out games for Xbox and 4 years later people are still waiting.The thing that makes me laugh is how much people consider Phil Spencer the trustworthy new guy who seemingly can't do anything wrong.

The Legacy Upgrade for Hitman is free on XBox One, do we know if it's a thing for all platforms?
Also why the GOTY upgrade is 10€ on PSN but it's double that price on Steam?

Wait, I did some confusion here. So what Microsoft is giving for free is a DLC for Hitman 2, right? I thought it was the dlc pack for Hitman 1 (patient zero plus the outfind bundle which is 20€ and something).The Playstation price is the same as Steam. 10 for the upgrade, 20 for the full pack.

By far the worst of the "AAA" devs, they're useless
I never understood the love for Bethesda games. Sure Morrowind was great, but I feel their titles are just those giant sandboxes filled with a slim story, repetitive fetch quests and ton of bugs, often with outdated graphics. I remember when Oblivion was the new thing, graphics were nice, I bought the game, tried to do some side-quests and they were literally all the same, I don't know how many portals I closed in that game before deciding to rush to the end of the game. And it seems they never update their engine, F4 looked old when released, and still the loading times are way too long, F76 looks exactly like F4. And when you have stuff like Red Dead 2 around, you really wonder why they don't spend actual money to make a new engine and fix those 23133123 bugs they have for each of their releases.
They're only that way because people carry water for them, and in many ways the things people excuse from their products are orthogonal to the quality of their "game" (though that is particularly poor too).
CEO
Gazillion Entertainment
Aug 2015 – Jul 2018 3 yrs
I came off the board in September 2015 to try and lead a turn around at Gazillion.
Over a 2 year period i restructured the company and turned if profitable - I did this by expanding our MMO Marvel Heroes from one to three platforms - adding the PS4 & XBOX platforms in the Summer of 2017 to augment our PC platform. Though I lowered OPEX by 40% I actually increased headcount and added a second development team, which in January of 2017 began work on a second major game based on an iconic IP as beloved as Marvel. We accomplished a great amount in 2 years - we did it by managing our cash, working well with our partners, our investors and putting a strategy in place that we were executing on. Everyone at Gazillion worked at an incredible pace and level for the 2 years I ran it. We were a family type of culture - we put our people above all else, believing that a happy incentivized workforce would make Gazillion a better company in the long run. It was a very special place to work and my team was amazing. The company was acquired by Trion this past summer.
lmfao, fuck off GazI know there are some old MarvelGAF users in here that will get a chuckle out of this

Il pay 60 for it if they provides the funds.Man there were people denying this was happening even after the ESRB rating and Steam ID.
Also one person who said PC players should pay 60 bucks for this like Xbox owners lol
You are the besttttttttt
A gift for the birthday boy? I gladly accept it :D
It'll probably be the same price as the other MS first party games that made their way onto Steam.What a nice price, waiting for the regional pricing in Chile :(

Because knowing our luck, Sega will release Kiwami on November 16th as well, and you will be left wondering which of them to gift.
On Discord Era?
tbf, after playing Kiwami on consoles, i'm more interested on 6. Kiwami barely has interesting sidequests. hopefully people aren't going to be shocked and with the 180 kiwami does after 0.Na kiwami won't come till next year they have said nothing in mknths
Oh don't get me wrong. There is clearly a difference between Ballmer's nonsense and Nadella-era Microsoft. Things like the open sourcing of Visual Studio Code and Microsoft joining the OIN are good things which simply would not exist under Ballmer. There are plenty of changes in the direction Windows itself has taken too.Trust Nadella the least. Ballmer may have been legendarily awful with his vision and quotes, but at least he respected their PC heritage and wasn't trying to turn Windows into some second tier iOS wannabe.
