No, Phil was quite a good exec I believe, but he was dealt a bad hand and never really was able to play his way out of it. I also think he was hamstrung by Microsoft leadership outside of Xbox and the general push toward AI. There were some issues under his leadership. Notably game quality and timeliness languished under his tenure.
