Report: Xbox Exec Now Ex-Microsoft Exec

From the You Had To See This Coming file, Adam Orth, the Microsoft employee
that famously and publicly belittled potential next-gen Xbox customers via
his Twitter account last week, is no longer with the company, according to
reports.
For those not following the story, it goes something like this: A new
generation of Xbox, which may be announced next month, is rumored to require
an always-on Internet connection to function at all. Gamers tend to dislike
always-on Internet connection requirements, as EA learned when it’s much-
anticipated Sim City flopped earlier this Spring, and users have filled up
the blogs and message boards protesting Microsoft’s rumored plans. Internet
connections for some, they argue, are unreliable or sometimes for low
income or people who live in rural environments nonexistent.
Orth, clearly a fan of the always-on policy, took to his Twitter account to
comment on the outrage, which he characterized as “drama”. In defending
the always-on nature of the next-gen Xbox, he tried to compare gaming
consoles to vacuum cleaners, arguing not buying a gaming system because you
might lose an Internet connection to not buying a vacuum cleaner because you
might lose electricity. He punctuated his tirade with the hashtag #
dealwithit.
Microsoft was quick to apologize, but the damage appears to have be done,
and Orth is seemingly out of a job. The lesson is this: When you’re on
social media, be nice to your customers, and keep your Twitter drama free.
That said, I don’t recommend that any of my readers check mine out, as it
usually has little to do with technology and more to do with whiskey and
things that are Not Safe For Forbes. |
