Phil Spencer, chef for Microsofts Xbox-afdeling, siger i et interview med IGN at december-opdateringen til Xbox One bliver mindre end forventet. Nogle af de lovede funktioner når ikke at komme med, herunder muligheden for at tage screenshots. At tage billeder af et spil er åbenbart sværere end forventet, og Spencer siger at han har talt med udviklerholdet om det:
"We can do video, how hard can it be to just grab a frame of the video? It's a little more technically challenging than I thought. Two weeks ago, they think they've found a good solution for screenshots. They're working on it. They know people want it. The team has a path to getting it done, and now it's just prioritizing."
Spencer siger også, at holdet arbejder på at forbedre installationstiderne på Xbox One, og at det er en personlig prioritet for ham.
