Head of Xbox Phil Spencer is undoubtedly a popular figure in the world of gaming right now, and he's also very willing to take part in regular interviews, be it on official Xbox shows, podcasts or even on Animal Crossing!
The downside, of course, is that he's highly in demand (and very busy), and therefore it's difficult for fans to get messages across to him, even though he attempts to answer them on social media from time-to-time.
What we're keen to know is, if you could ask the Xbox boss any question at all, what would it be? Would you give him a request for a specific title for Xbox Game Pass? Questions about the future of the brand? Behind-the-scenes details about working for Xbox? Or would you just ask if he could get you an Xbox Series X for free?!
Tell us what you'd ask Xbox head Phil Spencer if you had the opportunity down in the comments below.

Hypothetically, if you could bring one exclusive franchise from either the PlayStation or Nintendo platforms over to Xbox, which one would it be?
Q : If you could ask the Xbox boss any question at all, what would it be?
My answers:
1. Will you make a new variant of Series X that can play ALL XBOX and XBOX 360 games including Kinect games and DDR by disc emulating, NOT by licence updates ? (Just insert the disc and play)
2. Could you provide more kiddie / girly games exclusively for Series X ?
3. Could you provide more physical release for digital only games?
4. Could you provide another unique way to play Series X games like Wiimote or Kinect ?
5. Could you revive XBOX LIVE for XBOX Classic so we can get the old DLC for XBOX Classic?
Will we have Final Fantasy XVI at some point on XSX?
Why will Microsoft not allow 3rd-party VR headsets and VR games on Xbox?
Even if Microsoft doesn't perceive console VR as profitable yet, despite PSVR and despite Microsoft's own investment in VR/AR on PC with the HoloLens, they don't need to bear the brunt of exploration costs. All Microsoft needs to do is verify that 3rd-party hardware and software are compatible with Series X/S hardware. And now Microsoft owns Bethesda, which has been a VR pioneer.
So how does VR on Xbox not make financial sense? Does Spencer think it will be cheaper to catch up to Sony's market share when that nut is finally cracked?
You're way taller than I expected.
@hallower1980 This is something I really want Microsoft to look into.
Microsoft just partnered up with Facebook. Hello Oculus! Oculus on series x
I’d ask him if he can find me a series x. I’ll pay for it man 😆
How much wood can a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
I only have one request: Quantum Break 2
I'd ask him, why isn't there more Japanese games on Xbox.
@Grot He'll say it is Destiny 2 , he's always playing it.
Why are you letting Banjo-Kazooie go to waste?
I would ask him to tell me what unannounced games they're are working on..
I would just tell him.....
In you we trust, Phil. 👍🏻 lol
I'd ask him a few things:
1. What happened with Scalebound and Fable Legends? Be specific. I wasn't particularly looking forward to them, but I'm curious how far along they were before they got killed off.
2. Why not revisit some of the other Microsoft-owned IP? I know a lot of people are hot for the old RARE games, but what about Crimson Skies? Midtown Madness? PGR? It seems like any of these would be an instant hype machine with the right studio in charge of it.
3. How hard was it to right the Xbox One ship after launch? (I'm of the opinion he's done an amazing job but that damage done pre-launch to that system was horrendous.)
Basically I'd want to know what he'd think about allowing third party "inside out" VR headset to work on Series X
Why were so many games, last gen, canceled? Or was that before his time at the helm?
What... is your quest?
i cannot speaking in english. im korean haha
I would ask him him does he know about the elite series two controllers blue tooth constantly failing and if he does why hasn't it been fixed yet
Where's that VR support you promised?
My big question:
Xcloud streaming is great but it's limited to a sunset of the games available in gamepass. Is there any chance in the future that digitally purchased games could be streamed via xCloud? We can do.remote play but doing it via xCloud makes it a lot more accessible. This is the only advantage Stadia currently holds over Game Pass.
I would ask Phil Spencer
1) Why did Xbox remove all the game sizes from the info page and what purpose does it serve?
2) Why so many rubbish games on game pass, 90% seem to be meant for younger folks.
3) Can you make a game pass 2 for us older over 50 year old users? Game pass for seniors and the middle aged.
4) Can Xbox stop requiring every user to click off on agreements before they play a game they bought?
5) Does he believe that Bill Gates should be given the title of "The Great Bill Gates" or Bill Gates the great for his advancement of the English language.
6) Are native people, folks and beings required to pay gov. taxes on games?
7) Do people/folks who identity quantum entangled beings, also required to obey all the rules set out in the service agreements etc?
I would say microsoft can make a big profit if they released rare replay for the nintendo switch.
