"Kiwis who try to grab the Xbox One could end up as shark bait.

Xbox's first new gaming console in eight years is closely under guard by 20 resident sharks at Kelly Tarlton's SEA LIFE Aquarium in Auckland.

It was meant to be the first Xbox One on the market, but a slip-up with shipping overseas meant a number of pre-ordered consoles went to customers before the official release date."

A pity this very cool PR stunt was slightly marred by the accidental early release.

And a pity the sharks weren't fitted with lasers.

“The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.” - Bertrand Russell

Only sharks? Need something along the lines of Fort Knox security to adequately guard this beautifully amazing peerless creation.

They better hope Aquaman is just a comic book character.

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

Tell me a funny joke!
