The Virtuous Cycle of the Xbox Ecosystem
Editorial I believe Microsoft’s strategy for the future is the right one. In his recent Wall Street Journal interview, Phil Spencer talked about “meeting customers where they are” in their approach on gaming. This is an attitude that lines up with the ubiquity of their other products like Office, LinkedIn, and Surface. In the gaming […]
