Le responsable de la stratégie de Xbox réaffirme sa confiance dans les consoles

Matthew Ball, nouveau directeur de la stratégie chez Xbox, a exprimé son soutien indéfectible aux consoles de jeux traditionnelles lors de ses premières déclarations publiques depuis son intégration à l'équipe de direction. Il a qualifié la plateforme d'importante, durable et toujours en pleine croissance.

Ball a partagé ses points de vue avec Bloomberg le 21 mai, peu après avoir pris ses fonctions sous la direction d'Asha Sharma, PDG de Xbox. Fan de longue date de Halo et Gears of War, il a déclaré que relancer ces franchises constituait une mission irrésistible, tout en évoquant des milliers de souvenirs personnels liés à ces titres, auxquels il jouait dans des sous-sols à l'époque faste de la Xbox 360.
