Microsoft employees playing Xbox One early

4.5
Some Microsoft employees have recently been seen playing 'Xbox One' while people have been checking their Xbox LIVE profiles through their Xbox 360.

As you can see in the two images below, it shows multiple 'Launch Team' members from Xbox playing 'Xbox One' and it also shows up on their Xbox.com profiles, too.
For example, live.xbox.com/en-US/Profile?gamertag=Aphetor - Aphetor is currently 'Online playing Xbox One' as it is listed on his profile on Xbox.com at the time of writing.

If you would like to see more employees playing Xbox One, take a look at some friends list (https://live.xbox.com/en-US/Friends?gamertag=Aphetor) You can see a whole host of
people who have been playing Xbox One Recently.

This could mean that Microsoft is holding last minute tests for Xbox One as the console is set to be available in 21 markets this November. The Xbox One price has been set at £425 / €499 / $499.


It's worth noting that as reported back in August a lucky bunch of Microsoft employees will receive a free Xbox One on launch day -- in an exclusive white and silver-grey photo below.

I have a great feeling this will lead to some type of leakage.

dpmaddog1803 I love how the employees have bomb Ass gamertags ha


Because they are allowed to steal any gamertag they want.


Not about stealing, believe it or not they can put gts on hold.


They take all of the good publicly known gamertags that are put up for sale, even when the owner did not allow them to have it.

or they just made them before anyone because they've been working for microsoft since the original xbox...


Some made them early, but the majority take them from people.

vegasgamer Nice to see that Microsoft is rewarding their employees by giving out new systems, shows they appreciate them.


I agree. Hard work pays off at the end of the day.

Georgasm It's not classed as a game which on the 360 which is weird, if you go on a dev's Live profile you can see that they're playing it, but it's not in their activity history.
That's because it's a different console. It's making people aware that you won't be able to connect with them if you're playing on a 360. It could also be temperary to stop leaks such as titles and achievements...
