Xbox Project Scarlet: Microsoft focusing on improving frame rates and launch times

Forward-looking:  The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One both launched in November 2013. As they approach their fifth birthday, Sony and Microsoft are starting to shift gears into the next generation of consoles. It is fairly typical that we start hearing about next-gen hardware right around the fifth year of the current consoles.
