Reminds me of one of those BOSE speakers that were marketed at old people.

It's kinda grown on  me a bit. At first I didn't like it but then I kinda realized that it reminds me a lot of the electronics from the 80's and 90's.  And hey, I liked that time frame. As long as its able to keep the electronic bits reasonably cool I'm fine with it.

It does look like a fashionable DVD player from the 90's (mutated with a PS3), which may explain why it's called XBOX One- it will be the only device you can fit in your entertainment unit Cheesy .

Looks like another piece of consumer-grade trash to me.  I still like it better than the Wii U, though.  Darn thing looks like a repainted old-school external CD burner to me...

It looks like a Wii. Just bigger and black. And let the jokes begin.

The controller looks cheap to me.  I'm extremely skeptical of this console.  I'm primarily a 360 player, but I may have to just stick with the Wii U for the next gen.

The controller is nice. The rest of it can easily be mistaken for a DELL PC A VCR or a DVR.

I wish they'd go back to cardboard.  Give it character again.

I like how the system looks. The controller on the other hand looks way to oversized and bulky looking. I hope they improve that before the release.

it looks smaller than the 360 controller, and that felt fine to me (besides the battery pack). light years ahead of the original xbox controller.

Who cares about the looks or the name or whatever? All I care about is if it has good games.

Well, I do also care about wether or not it will spy on my with its microphone that's always on. I also care about not being able to buy/sell second hand games. I also care about it needing an internet connection.
