This black box looks way better than the green one. But, oh well, it's just a box that is going to go in the closet anyway, so no big deal.Are we sure that's the box because this was thought to be the Xbox One box, or is this just for Day One editions...

What's wrong with that design?AdobeArtistThere's nothing artistic about it. The picture is real, the side abstraction looks like a Photoshop stamp and the background is a generic gradient. It's the difference between this: And this: The former is very simple, has a minimalist geometric design that implies "360" visually, and delivers an aesthetically pleasing look when stacked on the shelf. The latter is overly bold, has an image of the device plastered right on the front, no real minimalism at all. *shrugs* I think boxes that just have a picture of what's inside aren't creative at all. Especially if they are trying to be more than merely informational. The Xbone aesthetic is in-line with the Windows 8 OS/Bone Dashboard design, but it's overly dull and flat.

yep. ..sexy.. that xbone box is atrocious and just plain bad. I never understood how people were attracted to that ugly green color.Â
PS4 box wins.

[QUOTE="Spartan070"][QUOTE="mitu123"]Huh? The black box at least looks good.CJ_ofCamelotAgreed, assured at least that I'm getting the black one. The Iphone? Rofl posting from my black iPhone now :P
The green box stands out...and it's not bad looking. Personally I prefer the Black day one box more. The PS4 box is boring looking.
[QUOTE="Allicrombie"]Indeed. Looks absolutely stunning. Its not stunning, its just better than the XB1 (and this applies not only to the packaging)Â

It could be a brown cardbord box with a plain black logo and Heil would still call it stunning ;)

:lol: true, thats why Sony is giving him all that free stuff! #legendaryconspiracy[QUOTE="Heil68"][QUOTE="Allicrombie"]Indeed. Looks absolutely stunning. Its not stunning, its just better than the XB1 (and this applies not only to the packaging) I like the X1's box more. It's sleek and simple. The PS4 box looks too busy in comparison.Â

Meh. It's ugly, but I'm pretty confident the box influences absolutely nobodies purchasing decision.
I bet someone in brand design made the decision to go green because it evokes environmental friendliness and looks good for their reputation.....clearly it didn't work.
Looks like the 360 core boxÂ
