He's just babbling like an idiot about a 'healthy creator community'. Shut up you fat headed fuck. Admit that you've lost, you fucked the generation up, and this is weapons grade, nuclear blast levels of cope.

 

[Quillerz]

Ugh it’s like one of those pointless meetings that could have been an email

 

[Balducci30]

Boring - Imma guess Hellblade 2 is one of the games? I thought they were supposed to announce a handheld or something what happened to that

 

[sendit]

Only real announcement here is Diablo 4 on Game Pass

spoiler alert!. i'm 13 mins in.

 

[BoxFresh123]

This could have been a blog post last week to shut down all the rumours

 

[FeralEcho]

That was it?

They could've just tweeted that shit dude....what a nothingburger.

Anyway while at the moment it doesn't signal a shift in the Xbox exclusivity mentality it does hint at them changing that in the future,"5-10 years exclusive games will be less and less" which is something to think about.They could just be testing the waters for these 4 and if they do really well they might open the floodgates.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

so everything is coming

 

[damiank]

 

[Moridianae]

Why did they allow so much damage and doubt to occur for basically 4 little games?

That's my question and it's a valid one considering.

 

[TheGrat1]

4 games, eh? That slope looks awfully slippery.

 

[ManaByte]

Gears 6, Halo, Forza and I don't know what could be the fourth one

Grounded.

 

[Mobilemofo]

I was about to tune in, but then I thought...no. fuck em. I'm thinking about Helldivers. I can catch microsofts diabtribe in wonderfully captioned twatery on twitter. Life is good.

 

[LostDonkey]

Again I point out to people like you that six months or a year ago Microsoft porting any exclusive to PlayStation would have been unfathomable and now you suddenly think it’s “nothing”.

The frog in the pot with the temperature being turned up? It’s you.

People like me?

Who do you think I am mate?

 

[TheGodfather07]

"This isn't a promise for more games in the future"

Translation: there's more coming but we ain't gonna let you know that right now.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Diablo 4 is coming to game pass on March 22nd

28 march

 

[Heisenberg007]

"Yeah, such a good question" that we asked you to ask us.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

They have no idea what they're doing, and their communication is beyond horrible. This could have been a tweet.

Xbox needs an Elon Musk/Twitter style cleanout. It's a complete joke.

 

[jm89]

Other then robot ai GPT bond.

Booty and phil look nervous as fuck.

 

[VulcanRaven]

Watched the "preservation" part.
Absolutely no new BC games will ever come.
$70 billion spent acquiring ABK. None of that library.
Thanks for nothing Microsoft.

Probably selling my Series X now.

They didn't say anthing about the future BC titles.

 

[Loomy]

Matt saying the only recently realized it's content over hardware explains a fuck ton

 

[Dr_Ifto]

I expected nothing and was still dissappointed

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

phil is going to eat his words in a couple of years. Damn what a clown

 

[adamsapple]

They didn't say anthing about the future BC titles.

Yep, they didn't say anything at all.

Unconfirmed rumors from insiders have said they're revising it, but nothing official.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Classic Phil spencer. "We're gonna learn".

Yuppp gotta love the typical Phil Word Salad Supreme topped off with the typical full of shit "We're gonna learn" cherry on top

 

[Heisenberg007]

28 march

6 weeks from now, and that, too, just 1 game. They are so hesitant in putting ABK games on GP, or even announcing ABK games on GP.

 

[Mobilemofo]

Sea Of Pricks actually sounds like an interesting concept. I'm so fuckin there.

 

[Snake29]

Convince people and you community that your still relevant with a bunch off bullshit sentiment talk.

Fuck off Phil Spencer.

 

[NEbeast]

We spent over 70 billion on acquisitions and now we're taking the glory for those successes we had nothing to do with.

 

[Mythoclast]

Games are most likely Hifi Rush, Pentiment, Grounded and Sea of Thieves. Big fat nothingburger.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Ok, please, tell me I'm not the only one who's watched this waste of time and feel like I'm at the pitch meeting for a time share or a seminar you don't want to listen to?

That was terrible and just a stupid reason to remind of that we should know they exist.

A bad, bad, bad look.

 

[aliadiere25]

Phil, just because your company struggled doesn't mean the other game companies struggled.

Nobody believes what Phil says.

 

[MCplayer]

this also shows how we gamers are such idiots to allow ourselfs to fall into rumors so easly

 

[Banjo64]

Watched it on 1.5 speed.

Have to say, that was a load of bollocks.

4 games, 2 live service and 2 are smaller passion projects. According to Phil it’s because they’ve exhausted their potential on Xbox and PC and are over 12 months old. Well, can’t you apply that logic to any game (in terms of exhausting its potential so needing to be ported)?

Also, at the end he’s saying when you buy an Xbox game you get a PC key for it as well on the MS store, sounds like consideration has been given to an eventual wind down on hardware.

Have to say that was disappointing. Just a rehash of their favourite buzzwords, a game pass ad for Diablo, no insight whatsoever to be honest.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

 

[LordCBH]

What a massive waste of time ... I don't get why they didn't at least name the 4 games.

Because they don’t wanna take those announcements from the teams of course! Even though absolutely nobody would be excited by said announcements, even though HiFi is pretty fuckin sick.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

A bad, bad, bad look.

Also from a visual perspective who TF came up with those chairs? Phil looked like a beta cuck sitting in one.

 

[Desless1]

Gamers? Patience? He he... It's a rare breed.

 

[Ogbert]

Phil sounds nervous.

I’d sack him once the camera cuts.

Put Asmongold in charge.

Look at the state of these MBA pricks. And stop saying fucking ‘creators’.

 

[Adam_802]

LOL

All that for this nothingburger. Oh man this is hilarious

 

[Spank_Magnet]

Was Diablo thrown in there last minute to take the edge off?

 

[keefged4]

It came across as very desperate to me, "Look at us! we have bought loads of companies! Please listen to us"

 

[DeepEnigma]

Matt saying the only recently realized it's content over hardware explains a fuck ton

My goodness. Any one of us could have led that shitshow. They only realize that NOW?

 

[Topher]

LOL

All that for this nothingburger. Oh man this is hilarious

You wrote this post yesterday, didn't you?

 

[adamsapple]

Heisenberg007

Guess you were right, he did specifically say that other games are not coming and specifically name dropped Starfield and Indiana Jones as games that are not coming

 

[Sony]

The things Spencer said make so much fucking sense. It's insane what the reaction to the rumors was.

 

[Fake]

22 minutes of nothing.

Phil should be fired just by this alone.

 

[Gudji]

I've seen what I needed, Phil nervous as fuck (probably afraid of meeting TimDog in the parking lot) and lot's of PR talk as usual.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Not Starfield or Indy wtf
Those two made the most sense

They will all come.

 

[Snake29]

 

[plip.plop]

The 4 games, I believe are

Sea of Thieves
Grounded
RedFall
Pentiment
Any future games to be considered will be online GAAS.
