No, the Xbox strategy is Phi's strategy. Obviously it's greenlit by the MS board but he and his team come up with the strategy. Not Nadella. Nadella has too much on his plate to deep dive into every MS business.
The ABK deal was Phil's idea for example.
He deactivated his twitter account?

It depends. The PS5 and XSX are closer in terms of power than the PS5/XSS and XSX/XSS are. It means that just because of the XSS, they have to make an development effort. If there was only the XSX,they could simply port the PS5 version without taking advantage of the extra power. It would take less time and cost less. But because they also have to optimize for the XSS, it disrupts the workflow.
I can't understand for the life of me why a company would maintain a failed CEO for so long?????
Usually big companies are ruthless, if the CEO isn't bringing great results for too many years, they have no problems replacing him. But Phil Spencer has been there for over a DECADE already, for no tangible results. It makes no sense. He's destroying Xbox.
It's actually very bad for a AAA game from a popular franchise.
So? It's not suppoosed to sell out. The shortage issues are over. Consoles only sell out during the inital launch (laucnh of a whole new generation) or if there are exceptional supply issues.
I think most people in these comments don't understand what they just read.....
Clickbait is a pain.
Ubisoft carries the entire french video games industry though. You don't want them to disappear or so many jobs are gonna be lost
It's too late. That should have been done a good 3 years ago.
No one ever said that it wasn't powerful though. We said it was overpriced.
Tbh
People have no issue spending $1000 on a phone that they will replace in 2-3 years but won't spend half of that on a console they'll keep longer.
I find it funny that the PS5 Pro presentation happened 24 hours after the iPhone 16 presentation. No on complained at the iPhone prices. But that's also because iPhone are EXPECTED to be expensive while consoles are supposed to be great value.
it should have been $599 at MAX and WITH the disc drive and 2TB.
Absolutely no one can defend this ridiculous price.
If they're smart, they'll cut at least $100/100€ from the price. Or they can play dumb and watch this console flop.
What the hell is going on at Sony rn???
Are they getting too comfortable since MS clearly gave up on hardware??
If Astro hadn't been a success, these past 2 weeks would've been the worst gaming weeks I've seen in a while.
From the Concord fiasco to Destiny dying and Helldivers losing players, they need to wake tf up!
The negative réactions are not surprising at all. Absolutely nobody is gonna pay that much to plat 10% getter looking games. ...
Let's hope that MS won't try to purchase them.
You have to give props to Sony for the courageous decision. Some heads are gonna roll, strategies are gonna change and the future will be better.
One of the worst business decisions ever made
So Portal is a success or a flop? I hear something different every day.
Yeah Sony is smart. These PS5 Pro + GTA 6 bundles are gonna sell like hot cakes.
This submission is too ckickbait. It should be changed. Neither the title nor the summary say what the article is about. It's ridiculous.
