At first I thought is was a bit too boxy, and I was disappointed that it did not look like a gaming console, but after considering that Microsoft

wants it to appeal to everyone not just Gamers. Now I really dig the design.

It reminds me of the first Xbox. Big, Bold, and Black. To me it still says hardcore gaming machine, powerful, yet useful while still looking like an

entertainment set-top box for the Movie lovers out there.

It doesn't look totally like a console. I can see microsoft was going for the set-top box look while still appealing to gamers and I think they struck the perfect

balance.

What do you guys think of the new design?

It's fugly...

I want it white. No black.

It's not that bad looking.

I think it's kind of boring. That being said I'm also keeping my expectation low of the look of the PS4 as well. Hopefully i'll be pleasantly surprised.

I like it better than any of the current console designs that's for sure,  it looks like a nice piece of equipment that belongs in your entertainment center.

I don't particularly hate it or love it. At the end of the day, it will only be sitting under my tv anyways.

It's so ugly and boring if it wasn't for the Xbox logo you could swear it's a PlayStation.

I actually like the design.

It's just a tad too big.
