Been waiting for the tide to turn on Phil. He’s a new breed of shifty corpo and a lot of the communities have been fooled by his “aww shucks, I’m just a gamer too” persona.
You don’t get that far at a place like Microsoft without creating some bodies. But, we all want to hope the next guy will be different.
Spoiler: they never are.
Truly astonished that literally anybody fell for that nonsense.
Eternal optimism isn’t always a bad thing. Phil played his cards well. I never really knew or cared much about him until his Giant bomb at Night appearances and he seemed legit during those some 7 or 8 years ago. Considering the clout Jeff from from GB had, Phil got a little of that by proxy from my perspective.
My exact same thoughts. Still like him more than Don Mattrick.
Man, forgot about that tool. What a joke. He went on to fuck up other game studios IIRC.

I don’t work in the gaming side of the industry but I’ve been in tech for a few decades myself as well. I have (luckily) avoided similar situations but I’ve seen it happen to folks that I worked with where they were laid off by some shit bag CEO who didn’t know fuck from shit and then ended up being the head of the company they went to a few years later and pulled the exact same maneuver. It’s wild how once you reach a certain level you’re basically too big to fail there is no consequences for you other than a golden parachute until you land the next gig with your crony buddies.
I hope you’ve landed at a better place that at least provides some semblance of stability. Good luck out their friend.
A high bar
Now? Bro should have been gone since he came up with the “BuT ReDFalL HAd GooD inTERnaL ReVieWS!” crap after crying a bunch around.
Ive been hating the guy since this fucker introduced full screen ads. Sold my xbox and fuck this guy. Piece of shit
Yeah when my ultimate game pass runs out I’m gone too. They’ve fucked the hole thing
