This might be the first time that an Indian hiring another Indian led to positive results.

Frankly, I can't believe it took a thirty-something Indian woman to say "This is a game system, we don't need to duct tape an AI assistant to it". Maybe she really is the most qualified to run Xbox within that den of idiots.

I’ll go buy an Xbox if she allows people to say Nono words and announces the return of Modern Warfare like lobbies.

Indians are very good at telling people what they want to hear advance their own personal agenda. Take it with a grain of curry until Xbox actually has a lasting comeback era.

dont worry, for microsoft shall push onto them the forcing of ai systems onto the xbox brand or they just shut that shit down. im sure the execs there can survive the fall with gold parachutes, but thats a lot of money to burn you already blew through trying to buy activision blizzard, but that is pennies in the bucket for them
 
An original Xbox loaded with XBMC 4 Gamers and tons of roms is still my go to console. What happened to these fucking losers? Since 2010 it is almost like they forgot what the costumer wants. I miss when they appealed to dude bros. Halo hasn't been the same since Reach. The original design team for the Xbox and 360 was fantastic. There is obviously a competency crisis at Microsoft.

I don't get why appealing to dudebros is so taboo to so many companies. Games that appeal to the bros on even the most basic level sell like hotcakes even though no one has come close to capturing the essence of old CoD and Halo.

COD is fucking unplayable now. I did dabble a bit with 2019 and like some aspects of it, but nothing compares to the original MW trilogy. I still play the co-op and survival components of MW2 and MW3 (the 2009 and 2011 releases respectively) religiously. The single player campaigns were a bit outlandish but who doesn't want to save New York from the fuckin Huns? Or take over an Oscar 2 command sub and turn the enemies weapons against him? Same with Reach. I mean I did also enjoy some aspects of Halo Infinite, but nothing compares to hijacking a Convenant cruiser and detonating a hyper drive engine to take out a carrier. How about fighting building to building with a bunch of ODST's with jet packs? These types of gameplay experiences have not been replicated with newer and greater technology. I don't want to fight a cheap imitation of Makarov in some made up Eastern European or Middle Eastern shithole. I don't want to be teased a fight with Atriox only for it to be cut at the end. This is what happens when you hire feminists and effeminate faggots to make your games.

All the edge was sanded off when design by committee became the norm and studios became to bloated for their own good. I would give my left nut for a gritty Halo campaign set during the darkest days of the Covenant war. Or a faithful remaster of CoD World at War. But that feels like lost technology from a more prosperous era.

Multiplayer has lost the plot too because of cancerous monetization schemes. I actually didn't mind Halo Infinite's gameplay per se, but the multiplayer experience was ruined by the battlepass style progression system. Bungie era Halos did it right where you could unlock cool armors and effects with challenges and earn in game currency to customize stuff like your emblem. This FOMO battlepass slop shit they have now makes most multiplayer games exhausting to me and only Helldivers 2 managed to get the battlepass system right.
