Don (Always Online) Mattrick: Do you remember him?

A series of useless compointant...and I am not talking about the Xbox One. 

Don (Always Online) Mattrick:  Do you remember him?  

He worked for EA for a long time before moving over to Microsoft.  While he wasn’t the only one, people put the blame of the early Xbox One issues on him.  He became the face of the lame duck of the early release of Xbox One.  And, one of the reasons Sony trolled Xbox for its problems.   

From Attack of the Fanboy,  ((To say that the handling of the Xbox One reveal was botched would be putting it nicely. Mattrick created a further PR nightmare with confusing comments like “If you’re backwards compatible, you’re really backwards” or the condescending “Fortunately, we have a product for people who aren’t able to get some form of connectivity, it’s called Xbox 360.”  MS needed to clean house and Mattrick was the face of the controversy.)) 

And, Mattrick wasn’t the only one being a dick to the loyal Xbox fanbase.  Remember Adam “deal with it” Orthy?  Of course, the Internet launched a thousand memes on this fool too.   

In one of the strangest moves ever, Don left or got fired from Microsoft and moved to the mobile gaming company Zynga.  Zynga  

Instead of helping “Make Zynga Great Again”, he basically ran the company into the ground.  So, he “departed” from the company, with it turning out worse than he entered it.   

From CNET, (("I believe the timing is now right for me to leave as CEO and let Mark lead the company into its next chapter given his passion for the founding vision and his ability to couple our mobile progress with Zynga's unique strengths," Mattrick said in a statement.)) 

Funny how CEOs don’t get fired but leave for the next chapter.  How does one leave one of the biggest companies for a damn mobile game company?  How do you spin that as being a success?     

What is interesting is that I can’t find anything else about the dude recently.  It was as if Thanos snapped his fingers and erased Mattrick from the tech world.  What is he doing today?  Counting his Zynga stock or bragging about tearing down Xbox?   

What happened to him?   

Why does Don always look like you've left him out in the sun too long?  It looks like he is melting.
