It would be so typical of Microsoft. Mistake after mistake with Xbone. Also that "Big Park" studio canceling a MOBA game and doing TV instead. Such incompetence to do a 180 turn like that. And funniest of all, they've had 8 years to prepare for a console launch and they can't even release in all major markets simultaneously. |
I think they didnt even consider thinking about a new console early enough by the sounds of things.
About 1.5 years.. maybe a year ago, there were rumours that MS were ahead of Sony in many aspects, game development for starters, but also how far they were in developing the console. But within the last year everything has flipped around... nothing people are hearing show MS to be anything but in a right old mess. To be honest its pretty shocking. So imho something must have happened in that time to make them suddenly go from Hero to zero.
I am even more convinced now since the reduction in market delivery, seemingly lower stock than Sony, the box is massive compared to the Sony (more powerful?) device and an external power supply..... and the talk of "we have a larger box to accomodate airflow so it doesnt over heat, oh if it does overheat we can reduce the speed of the processer". Something is not right in all of this imho.
