[QUOTE="gago-gago"]Looks like Microsoft are really listening to the gamers. It took years for Sony to release Kutagari but by then too much damage was done on the PS3 while MS are making sure the XO sails smoothly.GONtheSKYLORD

Not yet brah!

Sony won last gen btw since ps3 sold more. just sayinGONtheSKYLORD

Yeah .... if we ignore the 360 and the Wii

Pretty sure Microsoft arranged some sort of 'forced resignation'

I'm gonna miss him. He was a self ownage juggernaut :(

Good work Agent Mattrick return to base.

[QUOTE="GONtheSKYLORD"][QUOTE="percech"] How is MS a sinking ship when Sony needs to sell buildings just to get by?percech

Kaz has a list....

Its official now.gago-gago

Yeah, seeing someone lose their job is never fun but I wonder how much of the XBox One was actually his fault.Aquat1cF1sh

It's good to see that he left MS and I hope he enjoys his new job even though it will be a difficult one.

Don Mattrick pulling a Ken Kuteragi.

MS X1 pulling a PS3

Ken leaving Sony after PS3 launch debacle.

Seems very similar.

Confirmed

Effective July 8th.

Does anyone remember the name of one of the xbox founders who left MS and is now upset with the direction MS is going? We need that guy back more then ever now. NEWMAHAY

Seamus Blackley, I believe.

There's a Youtube interview, where he actually admits the original XBOX was a failure, in terms of delivering what the XBOX was intended to deliver. At the end, he believed the XBOX just simply became that typical game console, like GC and PS2.

HOLY SHIT, THIS IS FANTASTIC NEWS.

I'm fuking serious. I hope he was forced out.

heretrix

yeah man, how can someone in his position talk so much sh*t. I heard MS had to actually tell him to stfu and stop making things worse. I actually think the guy that left for EA was pretty awesome, that was a bad day for MS.
