Phil Spencer: I Don’t Know If Xbox One Can Beat PS4

Microsoft’s legacy of providing the best game lineup to its customers is growing day-by day. Stepping away from its past failures, Microsoft is doing great now and the company has been trying the best to regain their customers trust.

Back in 2013 when Microsoft changed its policies the company has lost most of it. Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft’s Xbox One recently signed up for an interview with Geekwire. Spencer said, “You know, I don’t know. You know, the length of the generation… They [Sony] have a huge lead and they have a good product. I love the content, the games line-up that we have.” when Spencer was asked, “Could Xbox One beat down PS4 sales?”

He also stated,”We often work hard to bring up an excellent product, to bring back the trust which we had in our customers… I sit back and I think about an [organisation] of thousands of people, you’re down in the organisation and some words and some actions from executives kinda just trash all the work that you’ve done over the last three years, many weekends and nights, and you start to question why am I doing this? Why am I working so hard when a few crass comments can actually position our product more directly than any work that the team was doing?”

He added,”Every time I sit down and I do a product review, mostly every time, the team comes in with surprise and delight around the momentum that they have, more than I’m able to add. And when I see that transformation of a team that’s questioning the leadership of the organisation to a team that’s motivated by the customers that we have and their ability to delight them, I see a team that’s making amazing progress.

He went on to say, “[Backwards compatibility] was one. We didn’t know back compat would work. We started it. A few ninja engineers went off and figured it out, how do you go from PowerPC to X86 and translate game code that’s about as time-critical as any piece of code that you would want in terms of its performance, and they got it done. So I would never question the ability of our organisation, but I’ll say we’re not motivated by beating Sony, we’re motivated by gaining as many customers as we can”
