Your Opinion on Ed Fries leaving?
 

I'm curious to how everybody feels about Ed Fries leaving Microsoft. Personally I think he was forced to leave for reasons unknown to us. Anybody else got an idea?

Bill didn't want to pony up the doe to pay him what he wanted... :confused:

What did he have to do with anything?




Tyler!

ed who now?

Know idea as to what you speak :(

ed fries was the head of microsoft game studios, he left to pursue "other goals" .i agree wit RMS, he prob wanted a TON of money and bill didnt want to pay up.

Oh ok whatever. Anyone can be replaced.



Tyler!

uh oh tyler that sounds like a threat

hehe
yea unless that dude did somehtin significant.. then whatever
i welcome the change

he was responislbe for obtaing ememsble Studios(I know I spelled it wrong but I'm too tired to find the right way to spell) Bungie and Rare under the banner of M$. He's been pretty much "The face of the xbox" as it was put in an article...but evdently he wasn't as well known :)

o damn
rare was a sweet deal
eat that nintendo!
hehe
that was the one reason my bro bought gc
for perfect dark, conkers and other rare game
such great games

whoa.. ensemble is under M$ now? they should make some kinda age of empires rts for xbox.. that would be c00l!
oh, btw did you dudes know that halo was gonna be a rts?
i saw it on tv its true! (although i've also seen bald ppl pour a black liquid on their heads and suddenly grow all their hair back on infomercials on tv...)

I don't think so. Halo has Bungie's baby for a year or two even before the XBox was thought of. I remember seeing beta videos of it years ago and it was under the Bungie name

no dude i saw it on some kind discovery channel special my dad was watchin it even had some footage of it. damn, now im gonna have to look all over the internet for this.....
