he was a huge failure.  not as big a failure as Sony's GaaS initiative but a huge failure all the same.

IDK. It's impressive how stable Xbox was under him. Never improving, never getting worse. Up until the very end at least, who knows wtf is up with xbox in the coming years.

his key decisions were day-1 pc releases on steam, gamepass, and the Bethesda and Activision acquisitions.  those are the key reasons Xbox failed.

He literally killed Xbox. Xbox live is dead.. literally... Their hardware is dead. Gamepass ain't the success he wanted it to be. 

It's nowhere near the failure of Sony's GaaS initiative

Some people are saying he was fired. Those people are probably wrong but it makes it more interesting so I chose to believe it.

It feels weird that Sarah Bond left too. 

It feels like MS is pushing hard on AI here. 

I wouldn't be surprised if they left on their own, because of MS's direction.

Maybe Sarah wanted the promotion, didn't get it, and resigned because of this.
