Microsoft got the chip they wanted, for the price they where willing to go at.
The reason the Xbox One isnt more powerfull is because of how expensive kinect made the machine when it launched, so MS went with a cheap chip, to lower the overall price of the consoles production.
Thats not getting burned by AMD, thats bad design choices by MS themselves.
You know who keeps burning people in hardware deals? Nvidia. I seriously doubt MS goes nvidia next gen.
I think they want x86 for next console, and a APU again, so they can have true backwards compatability with their Xbox One, on the new Xbox Two.
