holy crap the amount of times the xbox hit and bounced on the table and then you drop the controller onto the console as well.... the end of the video is rather ironic =/
These guys get such rare items on a whim. They will never experience the joy that gamers like us have when we get something so rare. The fruits of labor will always be sweeter than the desserts of fortune
I think I'm going to be sick he handled that thing so rough tore bits of the packaging and covered it with fingerprints if that had been my item i couldn't even say what I would do.
actually nope I"m not here to start some pointless fanboy war I'm a gamer in terms of games xbox was strong when it first launched then after a couple year Sony pushed back hard and is still bringing big games out even before the launch of the PS4 some great examples are Rain The Last of Us , Beyond two souls , Disgaea D2 and much more while Microsoft only started to focus on some kinect, Gears and Halo and mostly early DLC for Cod but these are just honest facts (once agin just a gamer)
I never really liked Microsoft (at least gaming wise), but this is a beautiful console and controller. Also, my birthday is November 16th! Very close to the Xbox launch.
I hope that special xbox gets back to it's owner in working order. Not saying IGN won't send it back the same way they got it, just saying the postal service can be pretty rough and consoles often get bashed about, sometimes severely.
Adding it up the total would be $499.99 so really you are getting you're money back cause that console is probaly worth more then that so that is very nice that microsoft did that shows some real buyer support!
If I got this very limited edition console tho, itd go right up on ebay. You could probably make a decent chunk of change from some hardcore xbox/microsoft fan out there
"no those accounts were hacked due to the fact the group wanted to expose the low security that it have" this proves my point, it was a 19 year old who hacked psn, and since as you say the service has security flaws, some would prefer to pay for the extra security. Speaking of service I was more aiming at the fact that on ps3 you can't talk to a group of your friends at a time unless you're in the same game lobby, whereas on xbox you just invite to party and you're done
Congrats to the hundred people in the world who got this. Everyone should have gotten a free code to download something from XBLA so we could all celebrate together
Yeah I use my PS3 on a daily basis as well and I am being seriously unbiased as I can when I say there are hardly any problems with it. The only time it's down is when anonymous hacked it or when they took down only the PS Store to update it. But I don't know, maybe it depends on where you live?
um no I didn't you need to look up info I've many many ps3 games coming out even after the launch of the PS4 because Sony actually cares about there systems and those who can't afford the next gen I cover video game news so I know my facts
If I got my hands on a unopened one, I would hold on to it for like 20 years when it became really rare to find an unopened one and then sell it :) mad profits
I don't know why they didn't add the original sound. They have come "that far" they've added customized sounds for there other special edition Xbox's so why not this one?
I wish I still had my original Xbox gamertag so I could have gotten this console I have been subbed since launch of XBL but as a kid I didn't have a credit card to make my original account so my uncle set it up for me. When the 360 came out I no longer had access to that credit card to be able to log back into my original so I had to make a new account. Man I remember the days of playing Unreal Championship on Xboxlive pwning noobs and getting pwned lol.
why not! all of them are doing the same thing selling you downloadable games or downloading demo or trails or DLC's, and see what i mean? shogun total war series planetside, are almost the most good exclusives games you can name right now on PC.
I've seem to have had a lot of problems with steam regarding their customer service and how they handle complaints. One thing that I really take issue with is that they updated their terms and conditions to state that if they fuck up and you deserve compensation, you cannot take them to court about it. That, in my opinion cannot be overshadowed by cheap games.
Talk about freakin' awesome! Microsoft really surprised those loyalists of Xbox Live who has stuck by through two consoles and probably many red rings of death. You don't see Sony or Nintendo doing this.
975 dollars, I use steam, Get great games for 40.00 At launch and they get cheaper down the road, For last years summer i got 87 games for 120 dollars an excellent deal. Pc gaming is cheaper in the long run, You just got toi be willing to make that investment.
That's because they were trying to advertise more. This is more of a gimmicky attraction saying there are rewards for being loyal members. Besides, if they gave out too many, these limited editions ones would lose worth.
I would be Hella Pissed if I saw him handling my Limited Edition Xbox 360 like that. I cringed inside when I saw him opening that box
Also he didn't give much time to boot down before unplugging it.
At the end of the day it's the same this as any other 360 but with some fancy paint
Roam in,
Roam me to
Shut up lol
PALM SWEAT.
CAN HE HANDLE THAT THING ANY MORE LIKE A THREE YEAR OLD?
JESUS CHRIST.
I HANDLE MY DIRTY LAUNDRY WITH MORE CARE THAN THAT.
who gives a shit
I agree
thumbs up if u have a original xbox
👍 yurrppp
*I have 3 units* ⭐️
I'm a PS guy since ps1and I'm drooling over this console in 2021.. xbox 360 console always attracted me!
holy crap the amount of times the xbox hit and bounced on the table and then you drop the controller onto the console as well.... the end of the video is rather ironic =/
Can't believe a guy who deserved this console allowed ign to unbox it and all the guy has done is chuck this Xbox around!! Respect the gratitude man!
"...this is actually this got a beautiful smatching... uh high gloss finish paint job uh, grey matching grey controller." Gotta get me one of those.
These guys get such rare items on a whim.
They will never experience the joy that gamers like us have when we get something so rare.
The fruits of labor will always be sweeter than the desserts of fortune
Note to anyone with anything RARE or of any value don't send it to IGN no one will appreciate your stuff like you will!
Every damn unboxing this dude tears everything to bits, If it was his i'd understand, but someone elses i'd be pissed if I were shaun.
I think I'm going to be sick he handled that thing so rough tore bits of the packaging and covered it with fingerprints if that had been my item i couldn't even say what I would do.
Dude that thing is rare as hell and I don't quite appreciate you handling someone else's xbox 360 like that
*drops console, console breaks, ign pays 5k*
That's great man. I hope you're enjoying your one console while I enjoy my two consoles.
They predicted fallout 4 in 2012
just letting you know that vault 101 poster in the background its from fallout 3😁😁😁😁
Gene Luchau Yea I knew that.
+Jordan De Tello Yeah Fallout 4 has Vault 111.
It doesn't really matter what it looks like, it's the fact there's so little of them so anyone who has one would feel so special
he was ruff with the console he ripped the plastic off the console. And he was very aggressive.
*****
its not even his console. i bet he got jam fingers too. Guy had the console back and there was jam all over the console and bite marks.
+Ethan Kotekar its mainly about how rare and expensive. I prefer xbox one but it is still a very rare thing to have and to get it is like honor
+Ethan Kotekar if you look at the date this was created it says 2012
I still want to get to old times.When there were non console wars...
Just imagine if that was a baby!!
I bought one on ebay so I can just keep it as a collections so that in the future it could be worth a lot for collectors.
note to myself, never give a console or a rare item to ign because they will rip shit off and treat your xbox like shit.
yeah
lol
I love how the controller doesn't have a transformable d-pad
I actually have one and its been sitting unopened for like 3 years haha. Maybe I should try it out.....or sell it.
You could sell it for quite a bit of money on eBay I bet.
Stan Bieniecki
Sell it for 1500-2000$
if buy it 😸
Stan Bieniecki if you decide to sell I'd be a buyer at a premium!!!
Stan Bieniecki don't sell it wate till 2020 it's 2017 right now
Yes i was active and with gold since day one.
omg i want one
I remember the good ol' Mech Assault / Sega Gt days. *siggghhh*
actually nope I"m not here to start some pointless fanboy war I'm a gamer in terms of games xbox was strong when it first launched then after a couple year Sony pushed back hard and is still bringing big games out even before the launch of the PS4 some great examples are Rain The Last of Us , Beyond two souls , Disgaea D2 and much more while Microsoft only started to focus on some kinect, Gears and Halo and mostly early DLC for Cod but these are just honest facts (once agin just a gamer)
xbox as always blow minds with the special Edition consoles.
I never really liked Microsoft (at least gaming wise), but this is a beautiful console and controller. Also, my birthday is November 16th! Very close to the Xbox launch.
Man this is pretty awesome. It'd be cool to get one.
He is also celebrating a decade of that Lacoste shirt he's wearing! :)
I hope that special xbox gets back to it's owner in working order. Not saying IGN won't send it back the same way they got it, just saying the postal service can be pretty rough and consoles often get bashed about, sometimes severely.
Amazing, the controller should have had the XBL10 logo on the battery pack
Just think if the xbox360 had blue ray from the start along with Wi-fi,this console would really be a beast
Be happy you got something for it.
I'm a PS3 guy but this was pretty cool of XBOX to do something like this
Well said dude....i am an xbox user..and i love my console every bit of it!
Adding it up the total would be $499.99 so really you are getting you're money back cause that console is probaly worth more then that so that is very nice that microsoft did that shows some real buyer support!
Can you guys please show a comparison video of all the the special edition Xbox's
Reminds of some Nike shoes I had that were grey orange and green. But it's still a very great looking design
thats pretty awesome. I like the color scheme.
Well, seeing as my HD7970 with 16gb RAM get's frame drops in large battles, try not to lie to me about how good PCs are.
Probably the coolest gesture Microsoft has actually done in awhile.
I love watching you guys and your console wars in the comments section.
*Grabs popcorn*
I was at first kinda mad that you guys had one cuz I was like "of course IGN would get one -_-" but then you said it was loaned, so now I'm good :)
They should have done a unique paint job for every player( I'm sure there aren't that much...) and the original startup sound....
If I got this very limited edition console tho, itd go right up on ebay. You could probably make a decent chunk of change from some hardcore xbox/microsoft fan out there
I bought the arcade edition 4 years ago and only time I got red ring was when I brought on vacation to Europe with me due to voltage differences.
i would have liked if they had a colage of pictures of all the best xbox games for the 10 years on the xbox and controller
"no those accounts were hacked due to the fact the group wanted to expose the low security that it have" this proves my point, it was a 19 year old who hacked psn, and since as you say the service has security flaws, some would prefer to pay for the extra security. Speaking of service I was more aiming at the fact that on ps3 you can't talk to a group of your friends at a time unless you're in the same game lobby, whereas on xbox you just invite to party and you're done
i have had an xbox 360 since 2007 and i got my xbox live this year but i really hope i get this
yeah and it's a feature called voice chat.. and the ps3 dont allow that cuz of the ram and not because when you pay more you get that feature..
I got a Helmet too. I haven't thrown the code in to see what it looks like though. I have an 8 year stamp as well.
If I owned THAT specific 10-year anniversary console, I would open the box & keep the console in a nice glass display case to decorate my place :)
really nice look especially all the x's at the bootom controller look's nice as well
this is a very rare xbox, shawn needs to keep it in best shape he can, preferably not even turning it on. and yet this guy rips everything apart.
that kinda look awesome, never had any xbox before though, I have a ps3, curiosity got the best of me so i checked this vid out.
They should make a public version of this console, but with a different design
congrats man, It's awesome Microsoft did this for their most loyal fans
I get the fingerprint thing, but "glare off console" isn't exactly a problem. It's shiny, that's it.
i am from the uk and i think i should show off what we got over here for the anniversary
for real xbox fans, getting that xbox is the highest praise you can get
Congrats to the hundred people in the world who got this. Everyone should have gotten a free code to download something from XBLA so we could all celebrate together
3:52 DAT SOUND AAAAH!!
For the controller, the thumbsticks, triggers, and bumpers should be green and orange
Yeah I use my PS3 on a daily basis as well and I am being seriously unbiased as I can when I say there are hardly any problems with it. The only time it's down is when anonymous hacked it or when they took down only the PS Store to update it. But I don't know, maybe it depends on where you live?
we are about to get Xbox Live for the first time where i live soon!
@Patrick Plue true but because there is only a limited number of them it is worth much more than an average Xbox.
um no I didn't you need to look up info I've many many ps3 games coming out even after the launch of the PS4 because Sony actually cares about there systems and those who can't afford the next gen I cover video game news so I know my facts
If I got my hands on a unopened one, I would hold on to it for like 20 years when it became really rare to find an unopened one and then sell it :) mad profits
Brilliant PR sense from Microsoft. Someone on their marketing team needs a pay raise.
Groundbreaking innovation right there.
I wish that it made the old xbox sounds too : (
That's a cool Fallout background
I don't know why they didn't add the original sound. They have come "that far" they've added customized sounds for there other special edition Xbox's so why not this one?
I've been live member since day one mainly got it for mech assault and crimson skies
I wish I still had my original Xbox gamertag so I could have gotten this console I have been subbed since launch of XBL but as a kid I didn't have a credit card to make my original account so my uncle set it up for me. When the 360 came out I no longer had access to that credit card to be able to log back into my original so I had to make a new account. Man I remember the days of playing Unreal Championship on Xboxlive pwning noobs and getting pwned lol.

Lucky person, I wish I had money for a constant gold subscription.
Who’s here during the 20th anniversary of the OG Xbox
He didn't give it away, he loaned it to IGN so they could unbox it.
It may be but it's still good enough to pull of the likes of Halo 4, which even to a PC master would admit looks pretty damn fly.
better then getting hacked, and having the networked being put down. at least the 360 is now 6% instead of 54% in terms of reliability
Have you had the Gold membership all ten years?
That was very nice of Saw
Keep workin on it and youll reach 15 at least,you go for it!
gamepad color doesnt really match the console but its still ok... console is looking quite good!
Haha thanks shaun... The dude ripping the packaging not giving a sh!t
As long as my xbox still works don't need another one
And I played Xbox all the time when it came out I just got Xbox live when I was older.
they should've made it a 320 gb
custom box design
custom logo on the controller
add the transforming d-pad
custom power and eject sound
vault 101 background !!! awsome

GamingWorlds 456 Thumbs up in August 2018.
Talk about freakin' awesome! Microsoft really surprised those loyalists of Xbox Live who has stuck by through two consoles and probably many red rings of death. You don't see Sony or Nintendo doing this.
Time to travel back in time to buy gold from 2002 up to now so I can get this bad ass console
Damn and now we would have to time travel back to your comment in 2023....
That awkward when you got your original XBox at release day but didn't have Live until 2 years after...
LOL. Now this sounds like a much more common experience.
975 dollars, I use steam, Get great games for 40.00 At launch and they get cheaper down the road, For last years summer i got 87 games for 120 dollars an excellent deal. Pc gaming is cheaper in the long run, You just got toi be willing to make that investment.
