Gamer Gets Xbox One Early, Unboxes It On YouTube
A YouTuber that goes by Moonlight Swami received an Xbox One early from Target and started sharing all the details on YouTube and Twitter. The video of the unboxing has since been removed and, according to Swami, his Xbox account has been banned. However, he chronicled the events on online, so there are a few choice pictures and Tweets available to read for those curious about Microsoft’s new console. Here are a few below.

What I found the most interesting was how massive the file sizes are for the digital games. As a PC gamer, I’m pretty used to stuff like this, but I also have more than 500GB of storage, which is what both the Xbox One and Playstation come with in their stock form. Check out a couple of his comments on the file sizes below.

There have been a couple of other people bragging on the Internet that they have received an early Xbox One, including one person that attempted to sell their shiny new console for around $10,000 on eBay, though it was pulled shortly after being listed.
Some have been claiming this is bit of PR tomfoolery, hyping up the Xbox One on a viral level. Somehow I doubt it, but in this day and age I wouldn’t be surprised if it were proven to be true.
