New rumors in regards to the next Xbox and PS4 as both are rumored to have recently changed their codenames while Microsoft still having problems getting quality chips to be made.
In terms of the next Xbox, Microsoft is rumored to have dropped the "Durango" codename in favor of a “Kryptos” codename. The console would be using an AMD chip called “Oban" but similar to last time, chip production issues have resulted in the majority of the early chip batches to be tossed due to failing reliability and quality inspections. Other details include a potential Fall 2013 release window but could be pushed back to a Spring 2014 window.
In terms of the PS4, the "Orbis" codename was never an actual codename for the PS4 and instead its real name has always been "Thebes." Similar to Microsoft, the PS4 will be using an AMD chip but it won't be the "Oban" chip. Other details include mass production of these chips will not occur until after the next Xbox is released which would mean a Spring/Fall 2014 release window.
