Phil Spencer has been the head of Microsoft Gaming for the past decade and has made a few questionable decisions for the Xbox brand since then. Running a major gaming company is not easy and the player base will likely notice the mistakes first before any achievements.
The recent moves made by Microsoft made the gaming community wonder how Spencer’s ambitious plan would pan out and how it would affect the platform’s future. Porting first-party exclusives can be controversial sometimes but no one was prepared to see Spencer’s lies pile up and crash spectacularly.

TheXboxplatform has been on the short end of the stick, especially after being let down by their leader.The gaming community did not hold back and threw all the receipts at Phil Spencerafter he made another false promise about the exclusivity ofIndiana Jones and the Great Circleon the Xbox platform after the recent PlayStation 5 port announcement at Gamescom.
Fans were unhappy about Spencer tripping over his words and taking back what he said months ago.Destin Legarie explained in a video that he felt betrayed and let downand expressed concern for the platform’s future if Spencer continues to share the limited first-party exclusives in its library.
It’s really good of Sony to let Xbox put their games on PlayStation to keep Phil and co in a job and Xbox head above water. Hats off to PlayStation for being a team player.
Spencer’s actions continue to drive a wedge between him and the most loyal supporters of the Xbox platform. Some fans would not for a shift in leadership and to seeSpencer relieved from his dutiesas the head of Microsoft Gaming and to salvage the platform from being a developer of high-quality third-party games.

Phil Spencer Should Be More Transparent and Consistent With His Promises
Spencer is adamant about the Xbox Game Pass’s success evenCliff Bleszinski could see it from a mile away. The idea of paying for a subscription service to access a library of high-quality games for an affordable price is appealing, and Spencer believes it is the future of gaming.

The gaming industry is a cut-throat business and business heads like Spencer are racing against time to keep his platform afloat and a step ahead of the competition. Not everyone is a fan of his creative decisions and the results have been less than desirable, the effort counts but it is not often acknowledged.
Spencer is running a business and needs to find ways to increase its income and his decision to turn to Sony puts him in an awkward position. Fans do not appreciate being lied to, especially when the truth is right in front of them but Spencer chose to lead fans on a lie.
PlayStation is a force to be reckoned with and Spencer needs the numbers. Perhaps more first-party exclusives will be shipped down the line. What are your thoughts about Phil Spencer? Let us know in the comments section below!
