@KillFeed_Gaming @XBOXTIMDOG Maybe he was talking about the Bethesda news

@XBOXTIMDOG Really...because I have a ton of your tweets bookmarked that dont amount to shit lmao Fake ass x.com/XBOXTIMDOG/sta…

Booty will be fired within a year. Mark my words. He will be the face for gamepass day one going away and good he is the fall guy With that someone will come in that’s like Matt and ASHA and they are gonna challenge these devs to make great exclusives. Put pressure on them to race to the top and topple Sony XBOX fans get ready. Bookmark tweet

@XBrassa @JezCorden He been doing this the moment Phil Spencer bought those 5 studios way back in E3 2018 he always confuses things and always hinted at putting games on Playstation. He's the confusion in Xbox interviews and always has been the one saying different from his team

Hi @JezCorden, I’m a long-time Xbox fan and follower of your coverage. I wanted to share some honest community feedback regarding the current leadership situation. Asha Sharma’s arrival as Xbox CEO created real hope. She spoke about returning to Xbox’s roots, focusing on hardware, core console fans, fixing fundamentals, affordability, and delivering great first-party games. Her early memos and statements acknowledged player frustrations and promised a clearer direction. It felt like a much-needed reset. However, Matt Booty (now EVP and Chief Content Officer) continues to send confusing, ambiguous messages that dilute that momentum. His comments about “nothing is off the table” regarding exclusivity, multiplatform releases, windowing, and other topics create mixed signals right after Asha’s promising start. This leaves fans uncertain about Xbox’s true direction: Are we doubling down on console identity and strong exclusives, or continuing with broader dilution? Booty has valuable experience, but his history with studio closures, cancellations, and past strategies (like aggressive Game Pass pushes) makes his current role in shaping the narrative problematic at this critical transition. The community needs clear, unified messaging — not ambiguity that erodes trust. Asha has the chance to define a new era. Allowing mixed signals from Booty risks weakening her strong opening. Xbox deserves aligned leadership that speaks with one clear, confident voice focused on players and the platform’s identity. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this dynamic. Keep up the great reporting. Best regards,

@XBOXTIMDOG @ballmatthew Asha needs to fire Booty ASAP before he signs some deal for a first party game to hit Playstation. It's funny he says this days after Bethesda announced their road map

This guy @ballmatthew is so refreshing. I swear the man clears the air and the truth just screams at you. The other guy Matt talks and it makes you wanna throw your Xbox into the Hudson River. Seriously , the stark difference of Matt’s within XBOX needs to be studied and documented for future generations of what to do and what NOT to do. I don’t know who I like or hate more. It actually might be I hate the Booty guy more and that’s hard to do with how much like Matthew Ball. Sorry I’m raw and unfiltered but it needs to be said. DM/Texts/Group chats all saying the same shit about the Booty. How the hell does that guy still have a job is beyond me.

@IdleSloth84_ Pick a lane bro. First it was all live service games will be multiplat which signals everything else is exclusive then xbox return to exclusives it helps grow the platform now its not every SP game won't be exclusive. So what's left to be exclusive if damn near everything isnt

Matt Booty (CCO) tells fans not to "overly fixate on single-player" games becoming console exclusives because it's not "carved in stone" Booty says fans shouldn't expect all single-player games to be locked down either. Matthew Ball (CSO) says “large live-service titles” will also be multiplatform moving forward as well. Booty explains that's not necessarily the case: “I wouldn't overly fixate on single-player. I think that's a good rule of thumb, but it certainly isn't something that's carved in stone.” When asked about how the company decides what's exclusive and what's not, then, Booty says “there are a lot of different games in our portfolio, and we have to think about how different games serve different purposes within it.” Ball was a little more frank, saying he knows “this approach is not obvious to all of our players," but the company is apparently "committed to making this clearer.” via: GamesRadar+ gamesradar.com/games/xbox-exe…

@Samfishermichae @FilmsFallout Turns out Phil Spencer being a gamer wasn't a plus for him it was a negative. None of that nice guy crap. Asha came in and did what she had to do actually turn Xbox around but still alot of work to do even if it hurt people feelings.

@FilmsFallout Boy I was very wrong about this woman. Gaming has been highly entertaining since she got in her position

Yes… welcome 🔥

@HazzadorGamin XBOX and PS going bar for bar with constant bad news

PlayStation announced the End of Physical game discs from January 2028. blog.playstation.com/2026/07/01/phy…

@XboxTimdog It's clear Asha doesn't want smaller games/studios so with that being said do you think she will end up acquiring big studios with big IP attached to them before year end?

Asha I’m sure wants them on Fall out New Vegas 2. Phil and Matt are why we don’t have it. Reset incoming

@WWEREALONE Moving Collison to Thursdays = 6 til AEW on TV again

So apparently boxing is coming to TNT on Saturdays which will be moving collision to Thursdays when it’s on. At least like once a month. Love this. Thank you!!!!! Just make it permanent, build up your audience to get used to Thursday. Be done with it 🔥 #MoveCollision

@XboxTimdog Whenever somebody leaves Xbox they disguise it as their “stepping down” or “retiring”. Phil, Sara, Craig, Bonnie Ross etc were all FIRED

Wish Craig well.

@tomwarren @asha_shar Literally rumors of Helix getting canned last day or so then this comes out? Helix is a Phil/Sara thing I can see her doing just a powerful XBOX

Xbox CEO @asha_shar thinks “mass audiences” won’t spend “thousands of dollars” on a console generation. “I think we’ll start to see radically different biz models that we never expected start to come into orbit later this year." xCloud? youtube.com/watch?v=o0hMSe…

@Ryangofett_2490 @HlNOMARUSUMO @Junksterrr

@SquadBlood99 @HlNOMARUSUMO @Junksterrr These are concept arts

Gears E DAY looks like a generational leap compared to Wolverine! It’s quite embarrassing.

@HlNOMARUSUMO @Junksterrr

@Junksterrr If you're gonna use a closeup cutscene shot for Gears, do the same for Wolverine.

@ZHFRGamer @AmericanTimdog Call of duty alone makes them the biggest publisher in the world and you throw in Minecraft and blizzard? But if their number 2 who’s number 1? Sony? Rockstar?

@AmericanTimdog Asha said as well, they are the second biggest publisher and they need to reach more people Watch the whole interview She can easily cancel halo, forza or fable ports, she hasnt or will not do it

Now exclusives matter because Asha says so. Danny Pena what a fake fan he is. Holy shit can’t make it up

@tomwarren @asha_shar “We’re the number 2 publisher” : COD Diablo Minecraft Forza “You have to have exclusive content” EVERYTHING ELSE Not that hard Asha!

Xbox CEO @asha_shar on Xbox exclusive games: "We're looking at that very closely. I think we have to be very thoughtful about each title and how we want to think about it, and learn from similar cases in the industry"

@Omni_Nomad_ @thefelourfog @klobrille I personally wouldn’t do it if I was in her position but they seem so hell bent to put games on PlayStation I feel like that’s a more realistic strategy I could see them doing

@SquadBlood99 @thefelourfog @klobrille Why would Xbox let Elder Scrolls 6, a single player game and their most anticipated title by far, by multiplat just because its under Bethesda?

Asha Sharma via Bloomberg: "(...) we are increasingly becoming a platform and in order to be a platform you must have exclusive content and services. We are looking into that, we have to be very thoughtful about each title and learn from similar cases in the industry."

@NfinityBL @klobrille I mean you don’t say something like this days before a big showcase and not have some truth to back it up

@klobrille That feels like a pretty definitive statement. It might not be everything, but exclusives are coming back.

@thefelourfog @klobrille Xbox game studios: all 100 percent exclusive to Xbox ecosystem outside of forza with a year exclusive Bethesda: case by case exclusive or timed (new IP exclusive while big IP timed) Activision: 100% multiplat

@klobrille Single player games and single player games with mp from ms own internal studios should be exclusive, gaas and games that are generally made by teams like Bethesda and Activision should remain multiplatform

@klobrille Somebody get @AmericanTimdog she said the word exclusive

@alil1nd @HazzadorGamin I think Bethesda does

@HazzadorGamin why doesn't Activision and Blizzard and Bethesda and Mojang channels broadcast the showcase?

XBOX: "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share." news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/06/…

@AmericanTimdog I can imagine them saying that their gonna delay them indefinitely oppose to completely pulling the rug

Not anything announced but u think that’s the right move. They need to establish Tentpoles. If someone asked 3 years ago if Halo was gonna be on PlayStation you woukd be asking the exact opposite of what you are asking right now. Sometimes people are so conditioned to just go along with what a corporation tells them. The right move is to have exclusives and Halo is the one game that should never be on PlayStation. Obvious reasons why it shouldn’t be.
