Missed opportunity not having a custom designed console.

 

[Salz01]

Ah…. It look like the same SKU

 

[DeepEnigma]

Both these console makers have been lazy AF when it comes to bundle designs at the retail level.

 

[GHG]

So they release all those shitty garish looking custom consoles and decide against a high potential black and red design?

 

[splattered]

What the hell, first Ragnarok and now this? Pfffft pass.

 

[Saber]

They could use a different Xbox color pallete or something...

 

[onQ123]

They trying to sell the consoles they have not create more stock to get in the way of them moving the old stock lol

 

[Kvally]

Well, sure this is fine. But like others said....if they made this a custom Diablo IV Xbox, it would have been sexy. Now it's just an Xbox with a game.

 

[GHG]

Even just doing something like this would have been enough.

 

[adamsapple]

This is the one case where a garish Series S model would have been apt.

Ah well.

As cool as that looks, it'd probably be a nightmare from a support perspective.

"Is there a green light coming from the top of your Xbox Series X?"
"no, it's red"
tech looks through notes
"Sir this is likely an error with your Xbox, and it will need to be returned to us for repairs".

To be fair, if any light is coming from the top it is an issue.

 

[Spitfire098]

Custom Diablo xsx died so the oreo xss can live!!

That's actually not probable as green and this possible red isn't actual light but just clever trick with colored parts.

Anyway, what happened to custom console designs? Microsoft is so weird this gen. They're doing custom designs for series s which should be a budget option and nothing for the enthusiast crowd with series x.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Even just doing something like this would have been enough.

Nah, too many shades of this,

 

[Jesb]

So lazy.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

They shoulda slapped a big fiery skull on it. Would work perfectly as the console itself is already a dark grey.

 

[MikeM]

Thats so disappointing. Guess i’ll hold out for a Gears Series X then.

 

[Joramun]

Hmmmm, where to play this?

buy an Xbox or PS5

Or build a new pc and use the xbox controller....

 

[Elder Legend]

Missed opportunity not having a custom designed console.

Yeah what the fuck is that all about. I was gonna dip for the sake of just looks. But now I am just gonna pass. Super dumb decision.

 

[Joramun]

Even just doing something like this would have been enough.

Lazy bastards at Microsoft. Red lighting would be epic.

Even a simple skin with "Diablo IV" would be awesome.

 

[cripterion]

Uh well OK? As much as their trying to make Diablo and Xbox thing it ain't happening lol.

 

[Ozzie666]

For us non-Americans, how much higher is that than a normal console? what's the game costing?

 

[Chiggs]

So fucking lazy I'm surprised I bothered to even leave a comment.

 

[cripterion]

Minimal effort would have gone with something akin to this :

Going all out :

 

[Warablo]

It seems they only waste money on those promo shitty custom prize consoles.

 

[BadBurger]

I'm playing as a sorcerer on PS5, but I really miss paladin.

I'll say the voice actors for this really knocked it out of the park.

There never was a light. Its the insides of the circles that are painted green, so they could of done the same thing with red.

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

I’d like to add something that wasn’t mentioned yet to all the lazy comments after buying it at $350. It’s basically one big slip cover over a regular Series X box that you can tear off if you don’t like it or was damaged like mine was.

Also game resellers beware. You’re basically stuck with it.
