You know what? That power brick is FUCKING HUGE. Reviews kind of mention it, but my god, I feel Microsoft have got a huge huge pass on this one. If Apple or Nokia or Sony or anyone else released a product with such poor, ugly, lazy design they'd get absolutely ridiculed.
- But not Microsoft. They never get ridiculed.ORAZAL

- It looks like a VCR from the late 80sukit2

And seen how the headset plugs in? The size of the damn plug? And the size of the kinect camera?

LOOK AT ALL THE VENTS ON THAT MONSTROSITY! they are super SUPER paranoid about it over heating, the fact that the massive power brick isnt inside it and that over half the friggin outsides of the thing is a vent!
its all a bit worrying.

I couldn't give a fuck about what it looks like as it would be hidden away somewhere all the time... however I do care that it doesn't seem like a very good console if all the reviews etc. are saying this much.
I am perfectly happy with my 360 and halo :D
- < Amen to that. I had really hoped they would release halo 5 for 360.GM278

- They needed all that extra space to hide all the hardware that collects your personal info.GM278
- Not baffling. Read about what they both do. The X1 does quite a bit more than the PS4.CygnusZero4
- With all its TV features n shit. PS4 is just a game system.CygnusZero4
- I always hated the 360 bong designfooler
- How much space does "TV features n shit" actually take up though? A cheap off-shelf chinese chip or two, at most.detritus
- defensive fanboyism is laughable. the XB1 is an unimaginative, overly-safe design - that's why it's bigdetritus
- besides - they're fucking consoles - wtf do i want some underpowered jack of all trades consumer box?detritus

You can use it without Kinect, right? And am I correct that Kinect comes with it?

"Microsoft got a lot of flak after E3 for hyping the Kinect as an accessory that must be connected to the Xbox One at all times (and for insisting that the Xbox One must be online at all times). It backpedaled, and now the system functions without being online. The Xbox One still comes with the Kinect, though, and while you can disable the camera and voice recognition features, that might not be enough to satisfy users worried about their privacy."

The headset connector plug is great. So massive and solid it looks like you could swing the controller as a weapon. Can't wait for idiots to toss their controller after losing an online match and it comes back in their face... or crotch.
Seriously though, the plug MUST have some sort of future intention to be designed like that.
