Darth Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 So when the Xbox Series X was announced, one of the most surprising factors was the shape and design of the Xbox Series X. Were you surprised? And do you like the shape? I know that it's just a block, but honestly, I really like the somewhat simplistic design of the console. Hopefully Sony doesn't go for something too outlandish for their design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I think these days many console companies are not sure of what they want out of the console and they tend to make big boxes instead of reducing the size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 I dont care much for the shape of the console, on the other hand the shape of the Xbox X series opens the door for a very cool special edition This is from IGN: Crazycrab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 That thing is absolutely hideous. Under no circumstance will it ever enter my house. I think I'm gonna throw up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaynil Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I think a vertical tower might not be very practical for some Television cabinets. With Smart TVs getting bigger not everyone got space at the top. Hopefilly alternative positions can be used, like happened with other past consoles that could be used horizontal or vertical. That said, I am here for the games, so I don't really care that much if the shape is too appealing or not, so long it works well and the ports make sense and won't cause problems for the console or ourselves, I am happy. I just don't want it to be difficult to connect stuff and that it runs smoothly. I think that having a bigger console in exchange of proper back compatibility is more than fine if it means that will work without shortening the life of the console unnecessarily. It'll help clear space and give use to the games I got and might want to get from past consoles. Crazycrab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand the unit will sit hoirzonally allthough I could see allot of issues with width for many TV units. Kaynil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
