Passion for gaming is great. He has a /lot/ of that. However: Not a very good technical leader, extremely isolated from the troops (even the principal ones who are designing the new products) which badly affected direction and morale, and very bad at messaging (which I suspect is the /real/ reason he's going). Of course, what replaces him could be worse. |

Was not he the guy who pushed for Kinect? I am not aware much about MS's internal politics but the timeline seems to match.
If so, then the real reason, in my humble opinion, is this: Microsoft is now about to fight for the 8th generation with an underpowered yet $100 more expensive console.
