<\/a><\/p>\nXbox is going to be giving away 20 custom, collectible consoles to their biggest fans. In order to win, simply head over the Xbox Gaming Lounge (located at the Manchester Grand Hyatt Seaport Ballroom) and start ogling the custom Xbox One consoles. Once you\u2019ve picked your jaw up off of the floor, snap a photograph of your favorite one, add a sweet filter if that\u2019s your thing, then tweet it for your chance to take home the ultimate con exclusive: a custom Xbox One. Make sure that you<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>follow @Xbox<\/a>, tweet the photo of your favorite console in the Xbox Gaming Lounge, and include the hashtags<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>#XboxOne<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>#XboxSweeps<\/span><\/a>\u00a0or your entry will be like so many tears in the rain: lost.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Now, to be straight on this, you must get a genuine photo of the console. So in affect, you have to be THERE at SDCC. Now forgive me if I rant a little here, but I’m QUITE OFFENDED that the consoles will be given away to “their biggest fans.” Give me a break, some of we ‘biggest fans’ can’t afford to go to SDCC. That doesn’t make us any LESS of a fan. Speaking for myself, I’ve got this blog, a podcast, a gaming group and several other Halo related things that I am responsible for. Also, what of the fan that can’t go, doesn’t have their own Halo community and such? Are they too any less of a fan? NO. So it’s really a slap in the face when these kind of hyper exclusives happen and not in the venue that really uplifts the fans. I know SDCC has been about exclusives for years and it bothers me every year as I see those con-attending vulture soak up those (often free) exclusives, only to jack up the cost and ‘scalp’ them on eBay.<\/p>\n Will this happen here? Possibly. The point I’m trying to make it (and it’s not mentioned in the article) is that, this would be okay, IF that console would eventually be made available to everyone.<\/p>\n I personally have been holding out for a Halo edition. My hopes are that there will still be one, even if it differs from the SDCC one. Have I said I hate exclusives though???<\/p>\n Source Link<\/a><\/p>\n -Sal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, we’ve been waiting for and wanting a Halo XBOX One edition.
