So here's a really great article that should help with your idiocy and hypocrisy. You might want to excuse being incompetent, but, not everyone agrees.

Exactly why Spencer should be gone.
"Forspoken and dead studio Luminous Productions rings a bell."
Forspoken launched at number 7 on the NPD top 10 games in January though. In Februarys NPD it was number 9 on the top 10 selling games of the year. So its not a flop like Hi Fi Rush for example which didn't even hit the top 20 games in either month and yes that DOES include digital sales. Also you're deflecting as Sony doesn't own this 3rd party studio.
So you want ...
Yes they did. Do you know anyone that bought and Xbox Series to play those games? I don't. I do know a bunch if people buying the Switch to play Zelda or bought it for Pokemon while waiting for the new Zelda game.
Same with people buying PS5s for GoW Ragnarok and the upcoming FF XVI. Perception is a big part of it. Just like Xbox relies on value proposition to sell Gamepass. This isn't year 1 its year 3. Add in the end of Xbox One and its been many many year...
Jeez you're all over the place. Xbox is In a terrible state. Phil runs the joint and yes it IS his fault. He's supposed to be on top of his studios and getting games made and checking quality. He's mentioned playing builds of various games and it's up to him to critique and get his team running well.
For example Redfall wasn't ready. How come they didn't send in a team to take stock of what they had? How did they think 6 months was enough? If ...
Really makes you wonder wtf they're thinking. If they want a wider release and to get those numbers up. Why exactly are they ignoring the biggest pool of console games on PS4/PS5/Switch = 270 million potential customers. Being exclusive to Xbox is asking for games to just die.
Whatever it is the one thing that is true is Xbox doesn't have it. Regardless of whatever excuse or mental math you want to make. Perception is pretty important and right now it's easy to see Xbox is flailing about without a clue.
I asked my friend who manages the 2nd biggest Gamestop how many preorders they got for Redfall and you know how many they got? 1. That's it. Yet they're having a huge early release for Zelda and had one for GoW. Chances are ...
Have to agree. Really scraping for games if you need to list 3rd party games also available on other systems and some ports.
That'd be denial.
How was this supposed to have launched 6 months ago? If they knew it needed additional time you would think that's when you would take stock and do a quality review to ACTUALLY decide will this be good to release in 6 months. If no then is it 9 months or a year they need?
How the hell did they go hey this game needs more time and decide they only needed 6 months and it would be ready? Like is there a spinning wheeling that decided how much time was given to fix this?...
"He's either:
a) totally lying -or-
b) completely incompetent"
Not mutually exclusive. Can be both.
Jeez so their own internal review group is just as disconnected from reality as much as their crazy fans.
Yep. Same ones crying about $70 games. But Xbox first $70 game in this state? Not a peep
It's Xbox first $70 AAA game, why exactly should anyone be okay with such an incomplete game? Have you seen the insane bugs on this 'finished' product? After a delay no less? Everyone should rightfully be up in arms and asking Xbox/MS where their quality control is at.
But if you look at the W it just might be two really angled L's together.
How come none of the usual people complaining about $70 games aren't complaining about Xbox's first $70 AAA game?! They would be out here in full blast if this was a Playstation game. Bunch of hypocrites.
Vampires stealing hands so you can't aim properly. Lol
XB1 was about 30 million less than Xbox 360
Hopefully Avowed and Fable are good. Also hope Everwild isn't some vaporware
It's the 3rd review that gave it a 4/10 so seems to be on point since it's not just an outlier.
This is one if Spencer was doing his job should have been canceled. No different than canceling Scalebound. If it wasn't going to work or was going to not complete in a good time frame it should have been stopped during production. Then this team could have refocused and started fresh.
