Has any console ever received as much negative press prior to it's reveal as the Nextbox has?

At this point it doesnt seem like litteraly anyone has anything good to say about the new Xbox. Every day theres more negative stories, rumors, and threads

Like Nintendo, Microsoft could stop most of the negativiy a heartbeat if they just opened their mouths and gave us something to look forward to. Why they continue to be so stupidly closed-mouthed is beyond me. Look at Sony; they're not being coy, they showed games, features, the things people want to know. They understand that people need something to be excited about, why can't the others get it through their blast-door-thick skulls?

(Phew, sorry, my frustration is getting the better of me...)

I have to agree

At this point Wii U is out, Ps4 is revealed and looking good, and MS is getting absolutly trashed in the media and internet

Why they are so silent still is beyond me
