I can't get over that he's going to Zynga

SahvidgePosted:

Of all the places to go...Zynga? I mean I know they make good money but really...Zynga?

This is so stupid. He should have been fired.

Zynga is dying, they need help, that's why he's moving. That and he's got a habbit of opening his mouth before thinking.

TTG_GTL he is probably leaving because he has come to realize how many mistakes he has made! what a ****.


He's gotten us this far, hes the most senior member in this Microsoft business, I'm sure we could thank him for many things he's done for us.


lol he worked in the windows division until around the inception of the Xbox One then he transferred he should have never been put in that position because had no experience in game consoles and he was looking at the X1 as a multimedia machine than a game console

-ExtremeRage- I think Microsoft has a sneaky plan on him going to Zynga to be the CEO and then making that company work for Microsoft and make another exclusive game series for Xbox.


Oh so the Xbox One gets shitty Facebook games exclusive to the Xbox One...

Why would Microsoft do that also Zygna is dying as a company anyways it doesn't make sense.
