Here's why it's a stupid criticism, as well as just splitting hairs: The thing could do 4K with all games, and Microsoft could mandate that all 3rd parties do so... but why on earth would anyone really want that? Let the developers decide what's best for their games! Why would Microsoft ruling like a dictator be better? It doesn't even matter how powerful they actually made it, some developers would rather spend resources elsewhere. This is a fact!
As for the compromise part, the thing seems to be breaking even at $500. What more do you want? Go but a PC or something. Sheesh! Has anything ever been as "no-compromise" as a console since maybe Neo-Geo? I don't think so.
Nice try at attempting to slow the hype for this thing down, but it's not going to work.
