How long till Phil Spencer gets canned by facing the consequences of the ABK deal failure - becoming the fall guy to save Nadella?

I hope not. PS fans don't want Phil Spencer to go.
Dude has been failing miserably since 2008, I'm sure he'll survive this, maybe they'll even make him MS CEO somehow.
I'm not sure when but even in the months before the CMA's decision he all but confirmed he's already being pressured by his superiors to find a successor, and with the potential consequences of the MS-ABK fallout on the Xbox division, I think it's coming much sooner than later.
I selected the “never” because that’s how execs get turfed - it’s their decision bla bla
If investors ask for his head, Satya will not die on that hill, he will absolutely can Phil Spencer. I sincerely hope he doesn't, or if he does, that Aaron Cheeseburger takes over.

I think both him and Nadella will go.
Nadella seems to have problems other than xbox. So, he will go too.

I'd not be so sure about Nadella being canned.
I don't think they ever fire him out right. They will let the dust settle, and he will 'retire'.
The other alternative is a move to become a third party publisher and stop dicking around with hardware.

Not happening. No one saw the UK blocking coming. We still have nearly 2 years until this gets closed for good.

IF FTC blocks too, it's a wrap. MS ain't winning no appeal nor going through with it if the FTC piles (which is likely - even if just for optics alone). Someone will pay the price for the massive blunder. Trust and believe it will the disposable salesman first and foremost.
All the same we all know that's code.

Yep, he’s the best thing to happen to Playstation since Don Mattrick lol.
He's a visionary, after all.
