This Xbox One is all jacked up on Mountain Dew




Dew-Box

Since its unveiling, the Xbox One has been called a cable box, VCR, DVD player and many other things by people who’ve only seen pictures of it on the internet. In fact, we were also guilty of overestimating its size, but after spending a decent amount of time with an Xbox One in person and seeing it stand next to several other consoles (fat PS3, original Xbox, fat Xbox 360, Xbox 360 slim), the system didn’t really look out of place.

However, the monstrosity pictured above is a completely different story. Wrapped in Mountain Dew graphics, this Yuck Box is a marketing tool for a promo giving away Xbox Ones. Thankfully it doesn’t appear that contest winners will receive consoles with this unique branding.

Although this Xbox One looks like it’s been beaten with an ugly stick, it’s still capable of playing some pretty slick looking games, so we think that we can forgive its less than stellar appearance.

When you think about it, things really could be worse. A few years back, Microsoft ran a promotion with Burger King during the Xbox 360′s release, just try to imagine a Burger Box One with extra cheese and onions.

All jabs aside, we’ll just leave you with this:
