Microsofts Major Nelson har kommenteret et indlæg på Reddit, hvor en bruger mener at Microsoft har været alt for forhastede med Xbox One. Nelson (der bærer det borgerlige navn Larry Hryb) forklarer, at det bestemt ikke er tilfældet:
"The Xbox One program has been in development for years, so calling it 'Rushed' is incorrect. Did we have a few challenges between May and August? Sure. But we are working on our own schedule - not any one else's. At Gamescom, every game in the Xbox booth was running on final Xbox One hardware. Every. Single. One. That would paint a very different take on the being 'rushed."
Microsoft meddelte i sidste måned at Xbox One-lanceringen var blevet udskudt til 2014 i otte europæiske lande, herunder Danmark.
