He seems to be very bad at his job.

 

[Camreezie]

Nice to know the right people are employed

 

[MH3M3D]

It IS a very confusing sentence. It reads like a word puzzle.

 

[splattered]

Wow what a complete douche bag.

It's his job huh? And he actually gets paid to do this job?

What a joke

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I get the point he's trying to make, but he just comes across as a bit of an idiot.

 

[cormack12]

Playing stupid to win points. Also saying you're a professional in the industry.

Yes, its a shit tweet probably deliberately phrased that way as well. But if anyone can actually decipher it, it's us - the people who actively follow this stuff.

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

Clearly he should do more research. That's embarrassing.

 

[Batiman]

Lol. Poor guy shamed himself.

 

[cormack12]

Time to mute it? He had like 50 responses lmao. Obviously shit his pants and tried to bury it.

[mikefrails]

Overdone joke about the confusing names. We get it.

 

[MilkyJoe]

Those pronouns explain everything.

 

[DeepEnigma]

How much X could a One X, X, if a Series X could X, S?

 

[Veysetia]

Yikes

 

[ForestVSea]

Pronouns in the bio = Can safely ignore everything about them

 

[bender]

Microsoft's naming is terrible but a lot of the non-enthusiast confusion should go away once One SKUs are off the market.

 

[danielJackson]

If he is serious, then this is just an another evidence that points how stupid work life is. Being good or smart means nothing without connections/being politically correct.

And being bearded cunt with pronouns without basic googling skills is enough, if he knows the right group of circle jerkers.

Yes, names are bad but I still would defend xbox as HC Sony fanboy rather than this dude

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Wow, muted his own Tweet. What a little COOCH.

 

[CrysisFreak]

Maximum IQ engaged

 

[Barakov]

The Xbox One/S/X/SeriesS/Series X is confusing to say the least. HOWEVER, this guy comes off as a little bitch. And you throw in the fact that he's a pronoun, claims to be a professional and then does the whole 'this thing isn't popular so I'm going to pretend to not know what it is, lol' routine and then does the whole 'Well, it looks like some GAMERS found this tweet so I'm going to mute it' routine. He's a little bitch that can't handle criticism.

 

[urmie]

At this point, the "experts" or pundits are quite literally stupid and get paid way too much in salaries. More gamers in forums know more than these frauds. He might as well apply to Kotaku for a job.

 

[Maxwell Jacob Friedman]

Xbox One, Xbox S, Xbox X, Xbox series S, Xbox series X

So they discontinued the Xbox one and the xbox one x is favour of the xbox Series S and Xbox Series X while the Xbox one S is still in production. However If you buy the Xbox Series S you will only play with with the fideility of the Xbox one S whilst on the other hand if you buy the Xbox Series X you can play with the highest fidelity. Also the Xbox Series S and Xbox one X can play all games from xbox, xbox 360, xbox one etc.....

God this is all Microsofts fault......jesus what a cluster fuck of naming and having more than one product out.....

 

[#Phonepunk#]

yes just remember these morons are our Cultural Gatekeepers.

literally nothing separates them from the rest of us aside from they get paid.

even then they complain about how hard their jobs are. i don't care if this is a "joke" or "ironic". it's still pathetic.

jfc journalists are the most pathetic creatures in existence.

 

[Deleted member 740922]

He/him?

Tit/tit head

 

[Birdo]

Pronouns in bio.

All you need to know.

 

[cryogenic7]

He seems to be very bad at his job.

Anyone that puts their pronouns on their social media is not worth listening to, at all.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

I reckon there are some very knowledgeable folks on GAF but this is just basics isn’t it? The names of consoles.... yes MS made it confusing but it’s not that bad. Who’s employed this moron?

 

[Rusty Shackelford]

Xbox One, Xbox S, Xbox X, Xbox series S, Xbox series X

I can hear that image.

 

[Fart Knight]

Terrible troll

 

[tryDEATH]

What an absolute tool and he finishes off with a condescending console warrior comment.

How limited do you have to be to get a job in the gaming industry at this point, it seems to be just above the required minimum of the US Army.

 

[geary]

This actually worth a new thread?

 

[mckmas8808]

It is VERY confusing for a casual gamer. But it shouldn't be for this guy

 

[Punished Miku]

 

[a multicultural team of v]

 

[Nikana]

Reminds me of that canadian website that said the Wii U tablet was the console.

 

[Yoboman]

To be fair he is from Queensland. They don't do education there

 

[Spokker]

It can be a little confusing for someone just getting into video games, but damn this guy sucks.

 

[Pejo]

Honest mistake to make for someone who's job isn't a video game industry researcher. The wording is confusing as fuck, and I think the naming convention of next gen Xbox consoles is terrible, worse than the Wii U stuff.

But then he doubles down into "whatever virgins and xbots lololol!", I lost any amount of respect for him. Also, he's a pronouner. Wonder if he's good friends with that journalist that couldn't beat the tutorial of Cuphead.

 

[THE DUCK]

It should all settle down once the Xbox one X is a distant memory and the Series X and S are all that's left.......

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

This actually worth a new thread?

It beats starting an old thread.

 

[Relativ9]

Look some random guy on twitter said something stupid, let's all point and laugh!

 

[diffusionx]

Honest mistake to make for someone who's job isn't a video game industry researcher. The wording is confusing as fuck, and I think the naming convention of next gen Xbox consoles is terrible, worse than the Wii U stuff.

It’s no more confusing than the 600 phones that Samsung, Google, Apple, etc release each year.

 

[Yoboman]

Xbox One X was most likely a sales disaster though so its not surprising a lot of people don't know what it is

 

[Fake]

It's his job huh? And he actually gets paid to do this job?

You just described EDGE review about Death Strading.

 

[MrS]

Based on his avatar I genuinely feel he may have something wrong with him (i.e. a disability) so I'm not going to stick the boot in.

 

[MISTER INVEIGLER]

It can be a little confusing for someone just getting into video games, but damn this guy sucks.

I've been playing video games for a while now and MS stupid names still confuse me from time to time.

I have never owned an Xbox though.

 

[LordCBH]

In other words the bum is terrible at his job kotaku will probably hire him.

 

[CAB_Life]

Pronouns in the title, which I knew as soon as I realized he was braindead—before reading the bio.

 

[reptilex]

I couldn't guess whether he/him was sarcastic and then saw the pronouns...

How people don't get infuriated by the fact that companies hire him is the real mystery to me, we should go after them, enough of that mediocre consanguinous imposture

 

[Evangelion Unit-01]

A real brilliant analyst here...

This COD is evil propaganda nonsense is so dumb.
