In all my years of gaming I have never seen the internet so collectively get together to degrade a console that we litteraly know nothing about.   It doesn't even make sense.

I see thread after thread and countless "news articles" doing nothing but bash a console that has never been shown, whose features have never been announced,  and whose games we've never seen.

I would understand it if the console had been announced already and people didn't like what was shown, but this is completely different.  And if MS delivers an incredible conference on May 21st with amazing games there is going to be some serious humble pie being dished out.  I don't even know if the Next Xbox will be my primary console next gen as some of the rumors do look unappealing to me but let's wait and see what they show first.

When Orthy ends up cheerleading always on, and bashes people for that not to be an option, and about everything that was shown is horrible, and specs leaked don't show themselves to be better than the PS4, why do you think the reaction isn't going to be negative?  As of now, outside of that really cool projector thing to the walls (which I personally don't have use for) exactly WHAT is being shown that makes the next Microsoft console a better choice than the PS4?  Is guaraanteed paying for online play an awesome feature?

If you don't want bashing, get information out there.  Otherwise, you get what is leaked, which is 8GB of slower RAM than the PS4, always on, elimination of used games, and requirement to have Kinect scan you when playing.  Think about it a minute here.  What does it say, when I have an XBox bias, and find the PS4 approach superior?  

No, the criticisms are complete justified.  What Microsoft needs to do is show otherwise and dispel these criticisms.... Particularly to do something to get the videogame journalists to stop pushing the inane 720 name, that comes out of the movie Real Steel.
