White Xbox One exclusive for Microsoft employees
This is what the Xbox One looks like in white. And, no, you can't have it.
This is what the Xbox One looks like in white. And, no, you can't have it.
Microsoft employees will receive a special version of the console that's "unique" for the team. The white console has "I MADE THIS" emblazoned by the disc drive, and will include one year of Live Gold and every first-party launch game.
First discovered by All Games Beta, employees must have worked with Microsoft as of July and must still be work there come launch time. Sorry Don Mattrick, guess you're not getting one--although you did certainly help make the system.

It's ok. You just really, really hate dust.
-
-
dust is color agnostic but at least black plastic doesn't discolor over time.
-
-
Well that's sad. That color actually makes the case more of something that looks good in the house. Instead of the current black rectangle that I'd hide.

Your DVR comment is highly confusing, what's it supposed to mean?
-

If you can't fit an Xbox One in your entertainment unit, you won't be able to fit a PS4 either.

Too bad. I think the white dev kits look so much better than the black.
-
Do they tend to get more dust on it?
-

Yeah, that's true. I was serious, but I wasn't thinking clearly about the difference between black and white.
-
But I rather it show dust so I can dust it than not show dust and let it continue to cake itself on.
-
-
-
-
Well, then I can wait till I can. That looks nice.
-
Yep. Waiting for the white one now as well. Looks so much nicer.
-
-
that's a pretty pointless and wasteful thing. Why spend that money making white xbox ones when they have no intention of selling them to the public. Just give employees standard xbox ones or put some sort of plate on it.

-
Devil's advocate argument: How do we know they aren't getting an extra financial bonus for their hard work?
-
I don't know why they didn't go with white for the final consumer model.
-
-
I don't think people complained about the wii? And it looks sooooo much better in person in white than black.

It's a status symbol for them, kind of like the Day One edition is supposed to be for consumers. I don't mind it. Let the employees have this one. They've earned* it.

I had a friend who worked on the chip for the PS3, they gave their employees standard PS3s.
-
you may now use this as evidence that Sony is cheap and doesn't care about its employees or MS is wasteful and unfocused on the real product, whichever side is your favorite

They already make a bunch of white ones as dev kits. I don't know why they don't do everything in black though if it would save money.
-
The color of a molded plastic shell is pretty negligible.
-
Ya I guess I thought the cost would be in freeing up space to do a special color and the work involved in setting up the machines for the special color. But I really have no idea how the logistics work.

well i mean wasteful in that there is an obvious market demand for white, but they are wasting their time with this pap, which assures that there won't be a white model on the market for at least another year or two.
