Some rumors regarding the Xbox One launch and SDK
Like any well-informed gamer we’re sure you’ve been following the pre-launch progress of the Playstation 4 in addition to that of the Xbox One. In fact you might have even heard several rumors that the PS4 will arrive in October, just before the Xbox One’s launch in November.
More “evidence” in favor of that scenario has recently come to light with infamous NeoGAF poster “crazy buttocks on a train” (aka CBAOT) giving us some fresh dirt on the two consoles. Briefly, for those who don’t know, CBAOT has on several previous occasions leaked some pretty accurate inside knowledge and likes to post in confusing language to try and avoid having gaming sites quote him (well, at least the reputable ones – haha).
This is all still very much rumor and unverified, however it does make for some interesting reading… His full post can be found here, but we’ve pasted the important bits, with accompanying translation, below.
On the Xbox One SDK (software development kit)

Translation: There is no live stream of the Xbox One just yet as the architecture is not complete. The latest version of the Xbox One SDK dropped performance by 15-20% across the board (which happens all the time), but it will be fixed. There is no chance of an early release in October for the Xbox One.
On the delayed launch in some European countries

Translation: He says that the localization excuse for delaying the Xbox One launch in some European countries is not true. Instead the problem is to do with chip yield issues and Microsoft not having a coherent single strategy from the start.
On the PS4 launch date:

Translation: The PS4 will be launch in late October and the PS4 SDK is basically final.
