Microsoft pushed back next Xbox reveal because it's not afraid of PS4?
Previous rumors claimed that Microsoft was planning to reveal the next Xbox sometime in April, but now a new story from Bloomberg, via unnamed sources, claims that Microsoft decided to push back the next Xbox announcement until May because the company "saw little competitive pressure from Sony." That company surprised many in the game industry by officially revealing the PlayStation 4 console at an event in February, with a launch planned for the holiday period of 2013.
The same Bloomberg story repeated previously reported rumors that the next Xbox would have a processor and graphics chip both provided by AMD, which is confirmed as providing that hardware for the PS4. It also mentioned that the console may not be backwards compatible with current Xbox 360 games because of the AMD hardware, which was also mentioned by Electronic Arts' chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen mentioned as a strong possibility in February.

Microsoft is just a bunch of wusses for not revealing anything about their next console. At least Sony had the balls to show us what is coming this holiday season. PS4 already has my vote just because Microsoft seems afraid to counter Sony's PS4.
And for those of you arguing about the Xbox being better, why hasn't Microsoft released anything about the newest xbox? They know their specs are far below the PS4 and are desperately trying to improve their system before a release.
