not at all. its more : / than anything. but then again there isnt a ps4 to compare it to yet. but for now its plan and just mediocre at best, and i hope the ps4 looks better. though not a big deal at all, but this is just responding to the thread topic.

edit: it is in a way like wanting to put a bag over it when you goto play it    lol     its like yeah i have xbo its just in the wireing closet. :)

MS reduced the size of the X1 pad so it might become the perfect fit for you.

I wonder if he ever tried the original xbox controller...  It was just too much and filled with too many buttons (black, white, all these little buttons that would confuse the fuck out of me).  Some reason I didn't mind the Dreamcast controller which was about the same size as the original xbox controller.  The form factor and button placement on Dreamcast controller was far superior than the original xbox controller though.

I don't care about the design of the console. The most important thing is the controller design and from the looks of it, I like it.

I for one have always thought it looked very sleek! Not as good as the Xbox 360s in white

Or the halo 4 slim

Nice...

I think it should be noted, when talking about consoles of the past, that the situation was different back then. Now, we put consoles under our televisions and in entertainment cabinets. Back then, you would usually pull the console out in front of your TV when you were using it, because the cords were short and because a lot of televisions were big floor models. It made sense that consoles were small, light, and kind of toy-ish.

I see people comparing them and it just doesn't feel very practical to me. Sure, you might not want to wedge a SNES in with all your component systems but you also wouldn't have wanted to pull an Xbox 360 out into the middle of the living room every time you wanted to play. Apples and oranges, kind of.

The Halo 4 slim might be one of the best console design I have ever seen.

I still play with the buttons on it because I like the sounds it makes when I touch them ;o

thats what she said :)

When my launch PS1 started overheating (freezing and locking up) one of the first questions the rep asked was if I played the system on carpet.  I was like yeah but the carpet is very small and rugged compared to most carpets.  It doesn't block the vents at all.  They still stated that was the case for the system overheating which was complete bs (since most launch PS1 had this overheating issue).  They were basically trying to put the blame on me for their faulty hardware.  The price to get a new model after shipping my broken one was only $75.  The whole situation though left me with a sour taste in my mouth about Sony hardware.  PS2 only reconfirmed my beliefs.  However, they made pretty good strides in reliability with the PS3 compared to their previous 2 consoles.

I actually think it looks nicer than any of the previous Xbox consoles.
