E3 2013: Pre-order the Xbox One, get an achievement
4.5
Earlier today, Microsoft announced that Xbox One. The price was set at $500, and many are worried and do not believe it is worth it. With this in mind, Microsoft have decided to throw in some extra rewards for people who preorder the new Xbox. Once you preorder the console, you automatically get a day one achievement when arriving on your Xbox. This is no word on how much gamerscore the achievement will be worth.
The other thing they are offering when you preorder is a limited edition Xbox One controller. We do not know what the controller looks like yet, but we will hear more news about it in a few weeks or so. The package also contains "Extra Care," basically extra packaging so your console is guaranteed to be in top condition.
Will these extra gems have an impact on preorder sales? We will found out soon.
Sorcery Unless they sort their prices out, I'm not buying it.
Stop moaning. The Xbox 360 was around $400-$600 when it launched and look at the 360 now? This is the MEGA updated Xbox and for the same price, you can't go wrong.
Lol, an achievement for preordering. That's pretty funny. I will most likely be getting this achievement, but it's just funny that they actually thought about doing this. Oh well. I like achievements.
c2g_Krypticzz Everyone is just hoping on the PS4 Bandwagon tonight. so what they have some stuff the Xbox One doesnt. The Xbox One will have stuff the PS4 wont either. If you owned a Xbox and Xbox360/Slim i highly doubt you will change to Sony that fast. This goes for Sony fans going to Microsoft. Another thing is that some of this stuff may change within the next 3 or 4 months
Bandwagon? Really? If the Xbox One is going to be $500 and the PS4 is $400 I think most people have a reason to go to PS4. Face it, the Xbox One is just an overpriced console with a little more features. All-in-one? Yeah it's called Direct TV and a PS3. Blu-Ray, Netflix and television, wonderful. Welcome to 2010. Many more reasons to switch to PS4. I don't really think this is a 'bandwagon' situation.

HeavensMessiah Really $500 and I recieve a xbox one controller w/ "Day One" on it? Wow, I feel that microsoft has hired idiots as their advertisement and selling department.
What are you talking about? You also get this super amazing achievement and what could an extra $100 be spent on other than gamerscore. I mean come on , this is groundbreaking, mindblowing innovation.
jstrout626 Why would anyone buy a console where if you don't connect it to the Internet once every 24 hours its abilities to play games are shutdown??????
Because most people are connected to the internet anyways, so it doesn't effect them. Plus it makes the xbox one more secure.
What if you go on vacation?
so true i always find myself away with no internet :/
