2 days agoThough not a CEO, I’d say Don Mattrick made even dumber decisions than Ballmer. When asked flat out saying that if active duty military can’t use the new always online console they can use the last gen console or get fucked was… a choice.

It wasn’t just the one offhand comment. His entire attitude was “always online and a mandatory camera attached to your device are just how it is, loaning games is gone forever, and you’re stupid for even questioning any of it.” His decisions singlehandedly tanked the popularity of the Xbox brand so hard they’re still feeling the effects one whole console generation later.
