This from the Globe and Mail

At noon ET, Microsoft will reveal a gigantic 40-foot-long replica of the new console it has dropped down in Vancouver in a parking lot at 1001 Seymour Street (at the corner of Nelson and Seymour near Yaletown) and gamers will be invited to help open its doors. There are a variety of ways to do that, but they all involve a sort of crowdsourcing where players input their Xbox Gamertag online as a way of “voting” for the big box to open.

This is a Canada-only campaign, and when the hatch opens, all we are being told is that there will be an “experience” inside (but seriously, it would be insane to do this if they had no games in there, and Microsoft is not insane). Craig Flannagan, Director of Marketing, Xbox, Microsoft Canada is coy about exactly which titles might lurk inside that massive black box. Also, he won’t get specific about what will make the opening “pretty incredible and immersive in some ways.” What he does know is that it’s the biggest launch, in terms of money spent and scale of the promotion, Microsoft has ever done in Canada. “This is far and away the biggest, maybe the biggest thing done in Canada for [the games] industry.” (You can see a short “making of” promo video here.)

So, how do you help crack open this mega box? Either boot up your Xbox 360 (the Xbox Source tile should have appeared on the start screen), log in to Xbox.ca or show up in person in Vancouver (note, the pledge feature does not appear to be live yet). Once you pledge your tag, you can follow the status bar on Xbox.ca/onesource or on your 360. You can also follow the #XboxOneSource hash tag on Twitter, and Xbox Canada’s Facebook page will have details too.

Bish, head over during your lunch hour and grab us something!

 

[hemo memo]

Built to be horizontal indeed.

Something that big...wonder what it's compensating for

But seriously, looks cool. And kind of scary.

Anybody else wanna see this and a giant PS4 deck it out on the streets of Tokyo?

 

[SuperSonic1305]

There are zombies inside. This is how it begins.

 

[oSoLucky]

I don't have any idea how I should feel about this, besides confused.

 

[GYNGA]

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

1. Kinectless SKU confirmed

2. Japanese households aren't going to like that.

 

[quickwhips]

"Actual size."

Guy in the red car is going to be pissed... I'd be mad if they constructed some behemoth right next to my car, that's for sure. I'd be checking for scratches allllll over.

Since he parked like that screw him.

 

[Log4Girlz]

I'm actually moving into an Xbox One on November 22nd. The rent is much cheaper.

 

[twinturbo2]

whatever

Man, that photoshop brings back memories.

 

[adixon]

Now they just need a die shrink and it will be ready for launch.


Already said? I'll see myself out...

 

[JordanN]

I saw someone post that picture and thought it was a joke. Didn't know it was actually real.

 

[Robot Pants]

Is this a serious comment? lol

SOULLESS LOOKING CONSOLE!

SOULLESS LOOKING!










SOULLESS!! lolololol

Yes, we're that deep into Console Warz (tm).

Even more ridiculous than the people saying a game has no soul.

Yep. I'm serious.
It has no soul.

 

[Chezzymann]

Is this where the almighty power of the cloud comes from?

 

[tino]

This makes me all nostalgic. Can somebody link me the original Xbox boat thread?

Also, we need the Vita version of this,

playing the Black vs White racist ad in a loop.

 

[Goodacre0081]

maybe this is how MS is shipping DonMattrick off to Zynga

 

[ChawlieTheFair]

Rare's new cage.

 

[cryptic]

They should add legs and make it walk around vancouver like an ATAT advertising halo.

 

[VisceralBowl]

Fringe?

Season 2/3 spoiler for reference

 

[GalacticaN7]

They didn't build Kinect because it would scale to be the size of one of the cars.

 

[Twilight Gap]

Dat first page lol

 

[Dezzy]

This needs amusing captions.

 

[flkraven]

So there is a picture of this thing on my Xbox dash, and I can enter a contest. I had to 'pledge my gamertag' in order to enter a draw to win something 'fantastic'. The eyebrow raising part is that the prize's estimated value is over $60,000....

 

[Sub_Level]

That was the prototype that had the power brick inside.

lol'd
