Yeaahh....I don't see the whole stand out/blend in stuff you are talking about. If the S was black you wouldn't be saying anything about it standing out.The fat Xbox One is designed to blend in with your home equipment and not offend anyone or cause any problems, the Xbone S however is so designed to stand out and look proud, like it would be a pleasure to have in your setup.
The shapes are relatively similar, but the size, patterns, texture and colors show how different the design mantra is

I was about to do the same thing as you. Still may do it. I just don't see the disc fetching more than $25. MCC code will probably go for $10 at most with all the deals I've seen lately. Plus the market for these games will be saturated once these bundles are released, so they may not even go for that much.
The Rigby Effect. I'm gonna need to see the documentation on this one sir.I have a Roku 4 that does 4K Netflix and Amazon, and my PS3 does 4K Blu Rays, so yeah, picking this up was so I could perhaps eliminate a few things, but not because it is a necessity.

500GB console with MCC and Halo 5 installed is a massive chunk of the HD used up right away
Worth it.
The nice thing about the xbox is that you can use external HDDs as well.
You can never have enough storage, but remember you can also plug in some external HDD's into the USB of your Xbox. Really easy to set it up and it will format it for you.
I myself am very tempted for the S, I just like new shiny tech or refresh of it. I am highly considering trading in my current X1 for an S model either the 500GB or 1TB Model. The prices are good imo.
Already have an X1, just a warning for those thinking about a 500GB console
Is there a disadvantage having an external HDD?
If the Xbox One was like the Xbox 360, and I could just transfer the internal hard drive between consoles, I'd probably jump. Better still would be if they sold an arcade edition Xbox One without a hard drive. The Xbox 360 did it right.
The Xbox 360 didn't have an internal drive. It was a snap on external. You can essentially do the same with moving from Xbox One to Xbox One S.
Also... how the hell would they sell an Xbox One without a hard drive? What an uninformed suggestion.
To elaborate further, here even with this XB1 S mock-up I made in black, it looks much more prominent
How fucking amazing would it be if the holes at the bottom were actually dot matrix lights? Maybe able to display visual shapes and information like the 360 ring of light.
I wonder if a Xbox Design Lab for the S is going to be something down the road
I think it will be quite a looker with the Forza 6 blue, or you could go all out and get it in hot pink and give the power button pulsing rainbow lights because why not if that's an option
Ok the rainbow light might be too much

This is the first time I've ever seen this opinion on the internet. Full circle back to crazy.

Being able to buy a new console without the HD, and just re-use my existing HD, saved me about $100 every time I did it. I sincerely doubt I was the only one to take advantage of this.

To be honest I think it would be cool if Microsoft sold an S without any HDD, specifically aimed at people who have their own external, and $50 cheaper. Have a giant sticker on the front saying "Console will not boot any games without an external HDD!" for the less informed customers. I'd definitely get that model at $249.This is the first time I've ever seen this opinion on the internet. Full circle back to crazy.

No I think the OS is on an internal flash module.Nevermind the games, it wouldn't even boot the OS!
PS3 can only play regular and 3D Blurays. Even if you meant PS4, it also cannot do 4K Blurays.
As far as I'm aware, Samsung has the only UHD/4K Bluray player out (until the One S launches) and it is $399.
Hmmm, I seriously thought it was playing 4K BluRays*.The Rigby Effect. I'm gonna need to see the documentation on this one sir.

How much does the vertical stand cost again? I think I will stand it up on my light-colored wood desk instead of the glossy black entertainment one, the while looks much nicer there.
The PS3 can't even output 4K. Even if it could read a 4K Blu-ray it could only output at 1080P. Your TV is just upscaling the 1080P input to 4K.Hmmm, I seriously thought it was playing 4K BluRays*.
It is doing something when I put in 4K BluRays, as my TV's resolution goes to 4K.
Perhaps it is just upscaling them, but it is not every BluRay, just those that say they are 4K. Which has only been 3 of them actually, and 2 of them I rented from GameFly.
Well this is good to know, as I thought PS3 did 4K as a result.
* Is it doing something else I am mistakenly referring to it as 4K??? I know there was a thread here on Gaf that was multiple pages that was about how consoles that came out 8 years ago did something with BluRays and the latest iterations did not?
Regardless if I am apparently wrong, they still need a black version or no go.
Cool, cool. I'll pick it up the same day, then.20 bucks. It's free in the 2TB system.
