It's about as generic, inobtrusive and inoffensive as any console ever designed. It's actually kind of amusing that gamers would express any sort of outrage or disgust over the design given that it appears to have been designed specifically NOT to be a living room eyesore or controversial in any way. Microsoft wants consumers using these as their set top boxes and set top boxes are not designed to draw attention.
But I suppose hardcore gamers can "mod" theirs with some racing stripes, a custom paint job, or maybe some flame decals until the inevitable game themed special editions are released.
It's a lot less clunky looking than the Xbox and cleaner than the 2006 Xbox 360, which looked like a mid 2000s era Dell desktop PC. Doesn't exactly scream "Fun Box" but then again, it's what the box does (not even what's inside) that counts.
