NEEEEEEEED!!!!

 

[CambriaRising]

2-3 per case?

 

[chubigans]

Man I can't believe they're barely getting these made. There's gonna be lots o' shortages this fall.

 

[Duxxy3]

That's just the box for a single brick.

 

[yankeehater]

Anyone know how long before launch the first 360's came off the assembly line?

 

[R3TRODYCE]

Oh yes!

 

[Nick]

 

[Bsigg12]

Boxes of 2. Damn, it is getting so close now.

 

[RS4-]

2-3 per case?

Nah, just one

 

[derFeef]

I think that's mine.

[SEGAvangelist]

2-3 per case?

Just one. Needs room for that unannounced dual gpu.

 

[schwabdizzle]

Man I can't believe they're barely getting these made. There's gonna be lots o' shortages this fall.

I wish "how its made" would do a special episode with the making of both PS4 and Xbox One.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

Oh shit. The console war is over.

 

[LiK]

One Xbox One in a box.

 

[10k]

Is that a box for the power brick or the whole console?

Jokes.

Do they fit a couple of consoles each In those boxes or just a single console?

 

[ShadowElliot]

"Isn't there anything on that isn't about boxes?!"

That was underwhelming to say the least

How about what's in the plain brown cardboard box?

And is it usual to start production 2 months before release?

I thought it would be earlier then this

When did Sony start production?

 

[CambriaRising]

All I could find was an article by Patrick Klepek on November 2nd, 2005.

Edit: The footage in the article is from September 9th, 2005.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

MS is going REALLY minimalist on the packaging for this.

 

[Ebomb]

So the actual Xbox "One". Nice.

 

[Dany]

Man I can't believe they're barely getting these made. There's gonna be lots o' shortages this fall.

You know how much they are outputting per hour?

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

 

[GavinGT]

Man I can't believe they're barely getting these made. There's gonna be lots o' shortages this fall.

I'm sure they've been making the components. They just haven't begun fully assembling them on a wide scale until now.

 

[Little Old Man]

They've only just started final production? Either shortages aplenty or they have some very large and productive factories.

 

[Devilgunman]

So it's coming on Nov 22?

But I thought their unboxing video proved that they already have full retail boxes ready to go?! Nice landmark image, tho


Edit: Oh hey, my first post as a member is me mocking someone else. Look how far I've come.

 

[PureGone]

Come on shu, show us the first PS4

 

[Beardz]

edit: wow, look at this... I got fucking beaten!

 

[Guevara]

Ew that box will NOT look appealing while shipping MS deff rushed this console just based on the cardboard (way too leightweight, probably cause a RCOD). Sticker looks like Ariel is there anything MS WON"T ruin with their own shitty standards? Probably sidewise because of the weight of the external powerbrick and needs its own pallet. Just one box? Probably entire EU shipment.

 

[Carl]

I wish "how its made" would do a special episode with the making of both PS4 and Xbox One.

Can't get enough of that programme.

 

[Reg]

Just a box.
!

 

[Majine]

♫ I'm in the box. I'm in the box. Where can I be? I'm in the box. ♫

 

[flyinpiranha]

Now to unwrap it and do that upclock on the CPU because it was obviously a last minute decision and completely reactionary.



Yes, sarcasm.

 

[chubigans]

When did Sony start production?

Officially the console was announced as being in production back at Gamescom.

Unofficially it looks like they've been in production as early as June: http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20130611PD207.html

 

[Wario64]

 

[sixteen-bit]

So it's coming on Nov 22?

Yeah

 

[Sorta Maximus]

Snake is in that box, isn't he?

 

[Tashi]

That box is so last gen

 

[eliochip]

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Does the box smell nice Major?

 

[Dead Prince]

from the time they announced full production and the time it took them to take the picture i have no hopes that they can reach the 3 million quota

 

[Bluekaveli]

It's a master chief helmet?

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

 

[BibiMaghoo]

*not actual size.

 

[Wishmaster92]

Pretty.

 

[DBT85]

First batch only just out of the factory?

 

[polyh3dron]

There are gonna be shortages all up in this bitch. I can't believe they haven't been able to start production until now.
