Microsoft Shows Off The First Retail Xbox One
Microsoft's Larry Hryb recently tweeted out a picture of the first retail-ready Xbox One. Last week, Hryb tweeted about a picture of the first Xbox Ones to come off the assembly line, but the consoles were already packaged in the cardboard boxes that would be their homes until they made it to retailers. Hryb confirmed that this Xbox One was one the consoles in those boxes.
The very first #XboxOne off the assembly line. @XboxP3 is taking it to TGS next week http://t.co/7p001eklUy

Our Take
It's a nice clutter-free box. There is no mistaking what's inside. I imagine that by the time it makes it to retail it will have all kinds of stickers on it denoting things like price, hard drive size, etc., but for now it's a very clean attractive box design.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
