Agreed! I have been a PS and PC user for a long time now due to PS and PC appealing to me more than Xbox, they provided what I personally wanted and I wasn't that happy with the direction that Xbox was heading as a brand. However I have seen things change since Phil Spencer has been head of Xbox and I have been keeping note of it. Since E3 this year, seeing the Xbox One X reveal and watching several interviews with Phil Spencer I really respect the decisions he has been making and the influence he has had on Xbox and hopefully the gaming industry as a whole as time goes on. I will be buying and Xbox One X simply because Xbox will now be providing a console that appeals to me, being mostly a PC gamer I want that power and performance of a PC in a console, but I'm also realistic about the limitations of doing that. So a console like the Xbox One X is a great step forward in my opinion and for me it doesn't matter which logo is on the console, PS or Xbox, at the end of the day it's all about the gaming experience so when my friends say "I thought you didn't like Xbox", my response is that it was never about Xbox vs. PlayStation to me, it's about what I want in a gaming console as a gamer. and right now Xbox is showing me that they can provide what I want and as a bonus that they want to be more about the gaming experience and less about being a business that forces their latest product on us.
Disguise AU I want to give you a standing ovation for your comment. He's so pro-consumer that it kind of hurts the brand in some ways. Phil had made such a positive difference in Xbox for me. By the end of the year, I will have my gaming pc, PS4 Pro, and an Xbox One X (the Switch will be in my collection next year). I don't want to choose sides anymore because they all have their pros and cons.
RespawnDead : Thanks. I will be using all three, I'll still play my PS4 Pro because I have friends on PS that I enjoy playing with that may not get an Xbox which is fine, I will also be playing a lot of PC for games such as Rising Storm 2: Vietnam which aren't on console and I do enjoy building and upgrading a PC so I may as well use it for other games too, some I have on both console and PC, and I will now be adding an Xbox One X to my collection so I definitely don't just stick to one, I will happily use all because I enjoy them all. I agree with what you said and i also don't want to choose sides, competition is healthy, but as consumers we don't need to take sides, just have fun and enjoy gaming, that's what it's all about.
I have little interest in owning a Xbox but I am happy to listen to Phil talk about games forever - amazing asset to Microsoft and Xbox players are lucky to have him.
Yes, and he is an amazing advocate for games as a whole. I still have no interest in the Xbox (mainly play on PC + handhelds) for now - but it can change over time. Besides Microsoft are slowly improving their PC support.
+Damn ! Well, if you are a PC gamer, then you already have access to Xbox. I wish more of my fellow PC gamers would stop pushing this "I dont care about Xbox" thing. We already have access tot he Xbox platform! whether its PC or console, we still have Xbox. It's the same thing. The games are there for us to play without having to buy a specific box. Take advantage of it.
Phil is awesome. I love how he just offhandedly acknowledged that Crackdown 2 wasn't what it should have been, and immediately put it on them for not giving the devs enough time. He seems like exactly the type of guy you want shepherding one of the major console makers.
What an amazing interview, I don't own a console, nor am I interested in buying one any time soon, but damnit I freakin love this guy. Phil Spencer seems like a positive force in this industry, whatever mistakes Microsoft did or did not make over the years.
Excellent interview. I enjoying having the other Giant Bomb guys in the conversation but I think the one to one was a great decision. They covered a lot of topics this way.
Phil Spencer is great for Xbox. He's poised on stage, and he does a great job with interviews. He has a strong skill to talk a lot and appear transparent, but not give to much away.
What a stellar interview. Jeff gets kudos for being such a relaxed, exceptional interviewer and Phil is one hell of a down to earth, good guy and a extremely positive force in the games industry.
I love my Xbox and I know I'll enjoy the XB1X as soon as I get a 4K tv.lol honestly my PS4 collects dust. If not for Naughty Dog I wouldn't own a PS. I just feel like I get so much more for my money with the Xbox and the attitude and commitment they have toward the gamers it feels good.
I always love how causally Phil talks about Sony. Its very refreshing. And any time he gives interviews its comforting that they aren't just sticking their heads in a hole pretending the Xbox is perfect.
Fantastic conversation. Since Iwata is gone, Phil has been picking up the mantel of the face of gaming [for me at least]. What a difference he has made at MS. Great job as usual Jeff.
Good interview, Phil seems to be a guy i can relate to as a gamer. He's opinions on gaming today is largely how i see it as well. I just wish more people in positions like his would come out and give us the truth about things we are intereted in as gamers. At least then we can understand why they do things in a certain way and we may/may not understand but at least we know why.
I dunno why but I just genuinely enjoyed listening to everything that was said. Great questions, great answers, honesty, just a realistic conversation. Phil has an incredible mindset when it comes to gaming as a whole and knowing he is the head of Xbox makes me all the more proud to be an Xbox gamer. Subscribed prior to the upload of this specific interview so I wouldn't miss it and I'll remain a subscriber after seeing what you deliver. Thank-you.
elzeus13 dude I cried tears of joy when I heard the fans chanting his name I was like omg yess the energy was great in that room then u look at the Sony conference and everyone was like cool yea games imma take a nap lol
And like real news comes out of these interviews. Jeff is a great interviewer (which you hardly see out of E3), and I think it speaks to how Giant Bomb is respected that Phil Spencer can come on a show that has criticized his and Xbox's decisions and still be friends
Like everyone else has said, great interview. This is the sort of thing games journalism should be. A honest journalist sitting down with someone who speaks as a gamer without being a walking advert for their products.
I am primarily a Playstation gamer since the original PS but I really like Phil Spencer. He seems really down to earth. Being a gaming fan who gets to do this is an awesome statement for someone in his position.
Thanks for doing this every year. Phil gives such access to Giant Bomb, and Jeff does such a good job of digging into topics and avoids making it sound like a laundry list of talking points. One of my favorite interviews every year.
I'm a huge Sony fan and i think their not allowing cross multiplayer is such bullshit. Sony is becoming arrogant again like the PS2 days and being anti-consumer since they're on top.
Neil Casimir Exactly, Don fucked us with this media driven, DRM, Kinect only console that told us *TRUE XBOX FANS they didn't care about POWER.* OG Xbox and 360 had plenty of power that no one ever criticized. *Phil is giving us true fans what we want.*
Phil is such a great guy for the industry. I hate how the media skew his words to make him seem like he dislikes Sony or doesn't care about what gamers want. When you listen to his interviews in context, you get a sense that he actually cares about gamers and video games and doesn't want to be a part of platform wars.
I have so much respect for this dude, he as a real passion for gaming as a whole. The industry needs more people like Phil that are genuinely trying to better the industry.
Critical Nobody Double Agent by Montreal as well. The OG Xbox was the only system that got this game. The GC and PS2 got shitty ports and the 360 and PS4 got the garbage made by Shanghai.
It's weird he came from coding and is really the best voice for gaming at Team Xbox. He saved the brand and continues to show gamers his dedication to adding value to the xbox brand.
This interview convinced me to subscribe to Giant Bomb on UA-cam. Great stuff. No drama, just direct non-toxic questions that every general gaming fan wants to know. I was originally put off by the Xbox One X price but I'm kinda-thinking it's a better value proposition now (if more devs do 4k updates for their older games).
@Giant Bomb this interview is so amazing and such a great conversation between two true enthusiastic individuals about the Xbox and the video game industry as a whole. You got my subscription and my thumbs up going forward! Keep up the positivty and much love!
am not the guy that have a lot of free time to sit and watch a 53:30 minutes UA-cam video...but yea i sat and watch a 53:30 minutes video just now...yea i know thats crazy right? subbed ...was worth it. great interview
Best move Microsoft has made putting Phil Spencer in charge. He's not afraid at all to say Microsoft had made some mistakes with the Xbox One launch and he's doing his best to fix it. Honest and full of integrity.
Microsoft needs to do a big poll to find out what "OG" Xbox games people want brought forward. For a creative suggestion: Panzer Dragoon Orta (Sega made on rails shooter, very unique, and not playable on any modern platform) Here's an easy one: RalliSport Challenge, I loved that game. Here's a hard one: Colin Mcrae Rally 04. I'm sure Codemasters would be fine but Colin Mcrae passed away a long time ago.
Phil Spencer is the best thing to happen to Xbox in my opinion. Such a cool dude. Sucks that 2 Xbox exclusives got cancelled and Recore wasn't that good 😞
Thx Giant Bomb for this interview I'm a simple French living in Japan and this 1v1 was sooo interesting, our journalist in France are just child exciting just for a little things and all interview are just fake excitement. Phil breathes passion and knows his subject...Great, I'll send my CV to Xbox Japan lol
Warfighter Eternal legit point. I have a really good gaming PC so I play on buying their exclusives. I don't think their box is for me at this point but I'm open minded down the road. I love their software!
As a gamer I really appreciate the honesty that Phil shares and I am glad that Jeff is willing to be straight up with him to get legitimate answers and not PR speak.
I don't normally catch much of GBs stuff but that was a great interview. That said, they usually are with Phil - always gives good, honest answers. Great fella.
I've never been an xbox gamer, but this year I think Microsoft had the best showing and seemed the most in touch with the consumer. They seemed to care a lot about what they were showing and were trying to do the right things. I found the Sony conference to be really disappointing by comparison. They have exclusives around the corner, but nothing that really jived with me. Each to their own though.
This sold me on supporting and buying an Xbox One. Phil gets it on where Microsoft and the Xbox's role in the gaming industry. He's worked as a developer and talks like someone that respects both sides of the industry, unlike Mattrick and even Sony.
Imagine the trouble Xbox would be in this generation without Phil at the helm. Or better yet...imagine how great it would be if he were in charge from the start...
Sudeki was awesome.... funny that I was trying to remember what it was called and this dude totally reminded me of it... I remember being so into it, but never finished it, then was in an accident broke my arm and had nerve damage, and took like 6 months to heal, and by then Xbox 360 hype was around the corner and it was all about that... Phil is an awesome dude, and couldn't ask for a better head of Xbox... This guy gets it
I love that Phil talks about games and Xbox as a fan rather than someone who's the head of the company it gives you faith in what will happen in the next few years after Xbox One X is fully released. I'm also glad they're holding off content for games they could easily show a minute trailer for an idea of a game, rather than just showing gameplay and launching the game the year it's announced I'm tired of seeing games announced 2-4 years in advance as it could overhype a game and make it somewhat of a disappointment.
Phil your the man don't listen to what all these PlayStation fan boys and PC gamers say about you and xbox. The Xbox fans are behind you 120% so just keep up the awesome work and we will always be here waiting to hear all the amazing things you do for us as gamers we do appreciate that we have you as Xboss and look forward to getting our hands on your new 4k beast. Give it time the devs will see how much you are doing to make everything easier for them and the games will come.
Great content, but the video "looks" like there's something wrong with the camera. I'm not sure if it's high ISO on the camera or if the whole thing is out of focus, but the wide angle shot really looks weird. Phil's close up looks more in focus but it's still just a touch soft. (60fps looks great, please do everything 60fps.)
This was seriously an amazing interview, Jeff is such an awesome host. Giant Bomb at E3 is always so great
Agreed, I really dig Phil at Xbox. Enjoyed all of GB's E3 coverage.
Phil is the best Xbox front man ever. I hope he stays forever.
You don't need to be an Xbox fan to appreciate what Phil brings to the gaming community
Agreed! I have been a PS and PC user for a long time now due to PS and PC appealing to me more than Xbox, they provided what I personally wanted and I wasn't that happy with the direction that Xbox was heading as a brand. However I have seen things change since Phil Spencer has been head of Xbox and I have been keeping note of it. Since E3 this year, seeing the Xbox One X reveal and watching several interviews with Phil Spencer I really respect the decisions he has been making and the influence he has had on Xbox and hopefully the gaming industry as a whole as time goes on.

agree i likr phil sad that he works for microsoft wish he worked for sont that be so nice
Disguise AU I want to give you a standing ovation for your comment.
He's so pro-consumer that it kind of hurts the brand in some ways. Phil had made such a positive difference in Xbox for me.
By the end of the year, I will have my gaming pc, PS4 Pro, and an Xbox One X (the Switch will be in my collection next year). I don't want to choose sides anymore because they all have their pros and cons.

I have little interest in owning a Xbox but I am happy to listen to Phil talk about games forever - amazing asset to Microsoft and Xbox players are lucky to have him.
ikr ? he fixed all the mess with Xbox one disaster launch
Yes, and he is an amazing advocate for games as a whole. I still have no interest in the Xbox (mainly play on PC + handhelds) for now - but it can change over time. Besides Microsoft are slowly improving their PC support.
+Damn !
Well, if you are a PC gamer, then you already have access to Xbox. I wish more of my fellow PC gamers would stop pushing this "I dont care about Xbox" thing. We already have access tot he Xbox platform! whether its PC or console, we still have Xbox. It's the same thing. The games are there for us to play without having to buy a specific box. Take advantage of it.
Damn ! he's boring and deluded
I watched this live last night. Had to watch it again.
The BEST interview with a console platform boss.
Jeff and Phil are class acts.
Phil is such a cool dude.
Phil showing out, as per usual... such a solid interview.
Undoubtedly one of the best interviews during E3 2017.
Phil is awesome. I love how he just offhandedly acknowledged that Crackdown 2 wasn't what it should have been, and immediately put it on them for not giving the devs enough time. He seems like exactly the type of guy you want shepherding one of the major console makers.
These 1on1s with Jeff are always great. 🙏
What an amazing interview, I don't own a console, nor am I interested in buying one any time soon, but damnit I freakin love this guy. Phil Spencer seems like a positive force in this industry, whatever mistakes Microsoft did or did not make over the years.
Phil's a class act. So glad he is in charge of Xbox instead of some PR robot
Excellent interview. I enjoying having the other Giant Bomb guys in the conversation but I think the one to one was a great decision. They covered a lot of topics this way.
Phil Spencer is great for Xbox. He's poised on stage, and he does a great job with interviews. He has a strong skill to talk a lot and appear transparent, but not give to much away.
What a stellar interview. Jeff gets kudos for being such a relaxed, exceptional interviewer and Phil is one hell of a down to earth, good guy and a extremely positive force in the games industry.
Listening to this interview makes me want to buy an XBox One X because Phil seems so fucking chill.
Ryan Mette dude! that's me right now! 😂💸
He's !! and he did a lot of good things not just for Xbox but for gaming on general .
Ryan Mette If you have an xbox one you can follow/friends him GT: P3 and see him always playing games ;)
I literally had the same thought. Probably going to save up for one... Also sup dude lol
I love my Xbox and I know I'll enjoy the XB1X as soon as I get a 4K tv.lol honestly my PS4 collects dust. If not for Naughty Dog I wouldn't own a PS. I just feel like I get so much more for my money with the Xbox and the attitude and commitment they have toward the gamers it feels good.
Phil's been making all the right moves at Xbox
Stingos like all those great 1st party games
Where are the non-Indie games that aren't Forza or Halo?
You get the feeling if he'd been in charge of xbox one from the start it would be a much closer race than the mess Don Matrick left behind.
Why can't you count indies, Halo, or Forza?
They aren't new or fresh IPs. The indies are on PC too, so not solely exclusive.
I always love how causally Phil talks about Sony. Its very refreshing. And any time he gives interviews its comforting that they aren't just sticking their heads in a hole pretending the Xbox is perfect.
Fantastic conversation. Since Iwata is gone, Phil has been picking up the mantel of the face of gaming [for me at least]. What a difference he has made at MS. Great job as usual Jeff.
This is a seriously great interview and discussion. These things need to happen more.
Good interview, Phil seems to be a guy i can relate to as a gamer. He's opinions on gaming today is largely how i see it as well. I just wish more people in positions like his would come out and give us the truth about things we are intereted in as gamers. At least then we can understand why they do things in a certain way and we may/may not understand but at least we know why.
The reason Xbox is in a better place is because this guys cares. Win or loose I trust Microsoft as long as Phil is in charge.
I dunno why but I just genuinely enjoyed listening to everything that was said. Great questions, great answers, honesty, just a realistic conversation. Phil has an incredible mindset when it comes to gaming as a whole and knowing he is the head of Xbox makes me all the more proud to be an Xbox gamer. Subscribed prior to the upload of this specific interview so I wouldn't miss it and I'll remain a subscriber after seeing what you deliver. Thank-you.
Btw. FANTASTIC interview. I've been following you guys since gamespot. You are a shining light in games.
Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil Phil!
elzeus13 dude I cried tears of joy when I heard the fans chanting his name I was like omg yess the energy was great in that room then u look at the Sony conference and everyone was like cool yea games imma take a nap lol
Phil is always a great interview.
Phil's interview last year with Jeff was awesome as well. Great stuff!
And like real news comes out of these interviews. Jeff is a great interviewer (which you hardly see out of E3), and I think it speaks to how Giant Bomb is respected that Phil Spencer can come on a show that has criticized his and Xbox's decisions and still be friends
Phil is pretty rad. Jeff did a great job as usual. Entertaining stuff!
People go to bed watching Netflix. I go to bed watching old interviews
Just like he's open to a healthy, vibrant industry, I remember Jack Tretton always said "a rising tide raises all boats."
Like everyone else has said, great interview. This is the sort of thing games journalism should be. A honest journalist sitting down with someone who speaks as a gamer without being a walking advert for their products.
I am primarily a Playstation gamer since the original PS but I really like Phil Spencer. He seems really down to earth. Being a gaming fan who gets to do this is an awesome statement for someone in his position.
My favorite thing about E3 each year is the Jeff and Phil interview. Jeff is such a great host and Phil Spencer is great guest.
Jeff is such a great host. GB's E3 coverage is the best!
awesome interview. Both Jeff and Phil did a great job. I especially liked what Phil said at the end to Jeff.
Thanks for doing this every year. Phil gives such access to Giant Bomb, and Jeff does such a good job of digging into topics and avoids making it sound like a laundry list of talking points. One of my favorite interviews every year.
I'm a huge Sony fan and i think their not allowing cross multiplayer is such bullshit. Sony is becoming arrogant again like the PS2 days and being anti-consumer since they're on top.
JuicyPlayer happens to anyone once they're on top, they forget the struggle and what got them there to begin with.
JuicyPlayer I can't await for them to announce the PS5 for 699 with RIDGE RACER 8, because that seems like the natural path of Sony being on top.
Lack of cross play is the new "Rumble was a last gen feature".
They do crossplay with PC all the time.
Yup and in the end it will bite sony in the ass like it did when they released the PS3
This is probably the best interview with Phil Spencer I've seen. Such a good and honest talk. Great work!
We are so lucky Phil replaced Don Mattrick. This man actually cares about gamers.
Neil Casimir Exactly, Don fucked us with this media driven, DRM, Kinect only console that told us *TRUE XBOX FANS they didn't care about POWER.* OG Xbox and 360 had plenty of power that no one ever criticized. *Phil is giving us true fans what we want.*
A proper Jeff interview is never anything short of impressive.
Phil is such a great guy for the industry. I hate how the media skew his words to make him seem like he dislikes Sony or doesn't care about what gamers want. When you listen to his interviews in context, you get a sense that he actually cares about gamers and video games and doesn't want to be a part of platform wars.
Wish I saw this when I was a journalism student. Great interview
Sometimes I wonder if in his quiet moments alone, Phil Spencer starts cursing out Don Mattrick's name.
im not an xbox guy.. but i really dig phil spencer as a person representing the brand. maybe i will pick up an xbox one x
This guy knows what's up
I've now watched this four (4) times now.
Man, Phil Spencer is alright.
I love these candid interviews with Phil, seems like a great all around kinda guy.
I think I'm in love with Phil Spencer. That was the best interview of all E3 '17
This is Giant Bomb at its best. Thanks guys.
as a playstation fan, it was cool to hear phil 's perspective. much respect. and great questions from giant bomb as usual.
I have so much respect for this dude, he as a real passion for gaming as a whole. The industry needs more people like Phil that are genuinely trying to better the industry.
I was really hoping Phil would open up the interview with "what the fuck is up"
Watched the Interviews from you guys last year With Phil and this year again. I'm sure i'm here again next time
Phil is a great guy. such a breath of fresh in this industry. Phil is such a cool guy, you can sit down and have a beer with this dude!
Excellent interview! I love how open and straight Phil Spencer was! He's like Shu Yoshida for PlayStation.
Make the original Splinter Cell trilogy for Xbox backwards compatible with their multiplayer functionally and that feature has been entirely justified
Critical Nobody
Double Agent by Montreal as well. The OG Xbox was the only system that got this game. The GC and PS2 got shitty ports and the 360 and PS4 got the garbage made by Shanghai.
What a great interview.
Great job Jeff. And Phil, is as always a honest and humble guests.
It's weird he came from coding and is really the best voice for gaming at Team Xbox. He saved the brand and continues to show gamers his dedication to adding value to the xbox brand.
This interview convinced me to subscribe to Giant Bomb on UA-cam. Great stuff. No drama, just direct non-toxic questions that every general gaming fan wants to know.
I was originally put off by the Xbox One X price but I'm kinda-thinking it's a better value proposition now (if more devs do 4k updates for their older games).
this is the best comment section I have ever read through keep up the good work Phil
Yea, this is a great interview.
@Giant Bomb this interview is so amazing and such a great conversation between two true enthusiastic individuals about the Xbox and the video game industry as a whole. You got my subscription and my thumbs up going forward! Keep up the positivty and much love!
am not the guy that have a lot of free time to sit and watch a 53:30 minutes UA-cam video...but yea i sat and watch a 53:30 minutes video just now...yea i know thats crazy right?
subbed ...was worth it. great interview
Phil is awesome, I feel very proud to be an xbox owner again bc of this interview
Best move Microsoft has made putting Phil Spencer in charge. He's not afraid at all to say Microsoft had made some mistakes with the Xbox One launch and he's doing his best to fix it. Honest and full of integrity.
amazing interview, no bullshit and super insightful. much respect.
Really great interview. Well done Giant Bomb! Going to look for more videos of yours now
Microsoft needs to do a big poll to find out what "OG" Xbox games people want brought forward.
For a creative suggestion: Panzer Dragoon Orta (Sega made on rails shooter, very unique, and not playable on any modern platform)
Here's an easy one: RalliSport Challenge, I loved that game.
Here's a hard one: Colin Mcrae Rally 04. I'm sure Codemasters would be fine but Colin Mcrae passed away a long time ago.
this was a really great interview
Phil Spencer is the best thing to happen to Xbox in my opinion. Such a cool dude. Sucks that 2 Xbox exclusives got cancelled and Recore wasn't that good 😞
Thx Giant Bomb for this interview I'm a simple French living in Japan and this 1v1 was sooo interesting, our journalist in France are just child exciting just for a little things and all interview are just fake excitement.
Phil breathes passion and knows his subject...Great, I'll send my CV to Xbox Japan lol
Man, i really like Phil. And Jeff is a fucking pro.
Thanks Phil for bringing everything to PC aswell
This makes me want an Xbox. Phil seems super cool.
Warfighter Eternal legit point. I have a really good gaming PC so I play on buying their exclusives. I don't think their box is for me at this point but I'm open minded down the road.
I love their software!
Mack Dack ima get one
As a gamer I really appreciate the honesty that Phil shares and I am glad that Jeff is willing to be straight up with him to get legitimate answers and not PR speak.
There's a lot of mutual respect on display.
I don't normally catch much of GBs stuff but that was a great interview. That said, they usually are with Phil - always gives good, honest answers. Great fella.
I hope we get a phil interview this year... even if from home
Really interesting insight from Phil.
Superb interview. :)
Can CBS just give Jeff his own talk show already?
Please please bring NFL 2k 5 to backwards compatibility. It's one if not that greatest football game I've ever played to date.
Phil summed it up at the end. it was a great interview because it was very detailed.
Holy shit, these are the least UA-cam comments I've ever seen in a UA-cam video. Jeff and Phil are both the best in the world at what they do.
Wish the video game industry had more people with Phil's view and options towards gaming.
Phil talked about Sudeki for the orginal xbox. It is one of my favourite games.
Great interview. Enjoyed both of you and your opinions, respectfully!
I've never been an xbox gamer, but this year I think Microsoft had the best showing and seemed the most in touch with the consumer. They seemed to care a lot about what they were showing and were trying to do the right things. I found the Sony conference to be really disappointing by comparison. They have exclusives around the corner, but nothing that really jived with me. Each to their own though.
This sold me on supporting and buying an Xbox One. Phil gets it on where Microsoft and the Xbox's role in the gaming industry. He's worked as a developer and talks like someone that respects both sides of the industry, unlike Mattrick and even Sony.

Phil is an awesome dude, and couldn't ask for a better head of Xbox... This guy gets it
Tough Hill to Climb changing a CULTURE... But we are all behind your Ethos Phil Love the Power to the Players Mentality. Great Healthy Outlook.
Huge shoutout to N64 at 3:28 .. love it Phil!
i can just imagine a microsft PR person in the background sweating their ass off everytime phil opens his mouth
I love that Phil talks about games and Xbox as a fan rather than someone who's the head of the company it gives you faith in what will happen in the next few years after Xbox One X is fully released. I'm also glad they're holding off content for games they could easily show a minute trailer for an idea of a game, rather than just showing gameplay and launching the game the year it's announced I'm tired of seeing games announced 2-4 years in advance as it could overhype a game and make it somewhat of a disappointment.
I absolutely love what Phil and his team has done for the Xbox platform. I love the X1S, and can't wait to get the X.
Phil your the man don't listen to what all these PlayStation fan boys and PC gamers say about you and xbox. The Xbox fans are behind you 120% so just keep up the awesome work and we will always be here waiting to hear all the amazing things you do for us as gamers we do appreciate that we have you as Xboss and look forward to getting our hands on your new 4k beast. Give it time the devs will see how much you are doing to make everything easier for them and the games will come.
Great content, but the video "looks" like there's something wrong with the camera.
I'm not sure if it's high ISO on the camera or if the whole thing is out of focus, but the wide angle shot really looks weird.
Phil's close up looks more in focus but it's still just a touch soft.
(60fps looks great, please do everything 60fps.)
YOu know how I feel about Phil... It feels like one of US got promoted to a Boss Job... I love his Ideas and input.
Giantbomb is doing some amazing stuff
