Shameless.

 

[Toki767]

They're bundling DLC with a console that doesn't come with games?

 

[Haunted]

Unique achievement :lol

 

[MikeE21286]

Wonder if Amazon is one of those retailers.

My preferred vendor of choice.

[Ephemeris]

A compelling incentive.. but I don't know. :/

 

[Pop On Arrival]

woah, an achievement for getting the system day 1! cool!

 

[Raist]

"A unique commemorative day one achievement"


Fucking hell xD

 

[Folstern]

Now even consoles come with achievements and DLC, nice.

 

[5amshift]

Pretty embarrassing..

 

[krypt0nian]

Shameless.

One and done.

 

[Salsa]

pretty shameless

and at the same time brilliant cause people are cheevo suckers and this will seriously be an incentive for them

[XANDER CAGE]

An achievement.

 

[Acorn]

Achievement unlocked :You paid us £429 for the privilege of giving up your rights. Have a avatar costume on us.

 

[Zabant]

and a unique commemorative Day One Achievement

Scum, CONGRATS, YOU MANAGED TO BUY ONE!

 

[ismk]

Microsoft has no shame and it's hilarious :lol

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Rumours that the achievement will be called "I paid £429 and all I got was this stupid achievement" are unconfirmed.

 

[Drek]

So I guess this highlights Ryse, Forza, and Dead Rising 3 as their big launch titles.

 

[kadotsu]

Digital shame tarp.

 

[trixx]

$499 for console
$60 for another controller
$120 for 2 games
$60 for xbox live

What achievement do i get from buying it day 1000

 

[Mike M]

I don't know if this is a brilliant way to milk achievement hunters for bigger sales or just plain evil...

 

[yusefdoodie]

Achievement unlocked: Sold my soul to the devil.

 

[Dipswitch]

XBox One OCD Sucker Edition. I'll pass.

 

[firehawk12]

Preorder bonuses for consoles. It really is getting crazy in here.

 

[Ephemeris]

Damn next gen achievements

 

[Delicious Waffles]

As an achievement whore, that day one achievement intrigues me.

$500 for an achievement is money well spent, methinks.

Spoiler

I'm being sarcastic. No game or Live included? C'mon now.

 

[Acorn]

Achievement unlocked : Helped make the industry a shitty place for consumers.

 

[Soyongdori]

Totally worth it.

 

[drspeedy]

surprised it isn't a $599 exclusive

 

[UrbanRats]

Achievement Unlocked: "Gullible Joe"

 

[Boogdud]

They should have just dropped the Xbox brand name and called it:

Microsoft: Hubris

 

[Corronchilejano]

They're bundling DLC with a console that doesn't come with games?

And here we finally here. Microsoft is finally seeling DLC for no games at all.

 

[Killthee]

Did they say if it was exclusive? I didn't hear it, but I could have missed it.

 

[Whiskeymatt]

Shameless.

Unique achievement :lol

That about sums it up.

 

[Seth Balmore]

HAHAHAHAH I'm fucking dying here!

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I already wasn't buying this, but I wish I could actually reverse sales.

 

[Strike]

Nope.

 

[Deadly Joker]

You get a free gamer pic of your avatar bending over and spreading his cheeks.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

Achievement Unlocked: Sucker

 

[shadowkat]

Pre order bonuses for a console? Yeesh.

 

[Fourth Storm]

For $499?

Pass.

 

[UberTag]

At least it will be easy to spot people to delete from my friends list when this achievement shows up.

 

[ussjtrunks]

wow that achievement for €500 >.<

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Makes sense. I expect Sony to do the same; at least bundle them F2P titles!

 

[AranhaHunter]

Think about it this way, not a whole lot of people will have that achievement a year from now and you'll be one of few with it!

This is how you hook in the achievement gamers. Good job Microsoft.

Someone told me this on ICQ and I thought it was satire. :/
