I still don't get the praise for this guy. He was one of the minds behind the Xbox One and all of its horrible policies.

No he wasn’t he worked on the games side until he got promoted as the guy to replace Mattrick after all of his fukkery.

Xbox’s push for Backwards Compatibility, GamePass, and cloud gaming started when he became head of Xbox. Not to mention the Minecraft acquisition (which was seen as risky at the time), along with Bethesda and Activision. He’s done a good job righting the ship since the X1 launch

And Xbox is by far the most consumer friendly of the big 3. Gamepass, backwards compatibility/FPS boost, Xbox all access, cloud streaming, Smart Delivery, etc. They make it way more accessible and cost effective to play games and it’s honestly not even close in that regard

Looks like you're right.

I can't look at a service that takes away ownership as consumer friendly. I can't look at those acquisitions that way, either.

Of course they are
