Looks like a shoebox to me, also "ladies and gentleman the next Xbox is the.....Xbox One!".....I'm waiting for IGN to mock the name like they did with the Wii U. The name must have got a harsh reception because the name reveal and reaction was cut from IGN's stream lol.

Why didnt they name it Xbox 720?
Lang Zi says: When you do a 720, you end up right back where you started.

I'm a little concerned about the fee system. What if someone buys a used game from Gamestop, only to discover that the fee makes it exceed the price of a new game? Hopefully more people will learn to sell their games on Ebay, it's not hard.

360 = one revolution
720 = two revolutions

both times you start and end facing the same direction. A person would think more revolutions is better when it comes to consoles.

Haven't heard about the fee thing, care to explain? I'm watching the reveal presentation now as I live in Aus and it was on at 3 am.

The game gets installed on your Xbox, so that you don't need to insert the disc every time you want to play. The disc can somehow communicate with the Xbox and alert Microsoft if its one free installation has been used up.

They haven't told us how much the fee will be, and whether or not the new installation overwrites the old one.

looks like those rumors I heard of a completely circular console are false...

Also can you get any less original with the name?

I'm waiting for the abridged version, like they did with the PS4 announcement:

Wow, not a lot to look at. Guess they're taking the "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" approach.

Used games being pretty much blocked (with codes/fees), stupid name, generic look, same basic controller (hopefully 360 controller works with it), not being centred on gaming and all that are all terrible. This could be the beginning of the end for Xbox.

Does the Xbox have any exclusives besides Gears of War and Halo? From an outsider's perspective, it seems like virtually every game for the Xbox is also on the PS3 or PC.

Apparently, they have 15 exclusives. Don't know where that info came from, though.

Will believe it when I see it, even with the most epic exclusives I wouldn't support this kind of console.

Looks like a Video Cassette Recorder.
