Video Shows Xbox One Startup Setup Screen, Stuck In Loading Loop

4.6
With the Xbox One showcased at multiple events, it’s quite inevitable that we’re going to see more and more videos showcasing bits and pieces of the Xbox One UI, and also a bunch of problems here and there. As we already explained multiple times demo units don’t really work in nominal operational conditions, so they’re much more likely to incur in some issues than the console you’ll have in your living room.

It’s normal and it shouldn’t be taken as a signal of a widespread problem, even more so in this case, considering that the connectivity problem could be caused by a large variety of elements independent from the console itself.
This time we get a video from YouTube user Sam Clark, recorded at the Area One event in London. Apparently the unit he filmed could not connect to the network and was stuck in an endless look, also booting up a couple times.

The most interesting part of the video, though is the startup setup screen that lets you choose language and location (at the 0:56 mark) and a small glimpse on the UI on the nearby console at 7:29 when the game pauses to wait for the other player.

Just as a note in passing, the grey screen that says “No Cable Connected” at 3:40 is not part of the Xbox One UI, but it actually belongs to that of the TV.

You can check the full video out, and a few screencaps showing the relevant elements in the gallery just under the clip, if you don’t want to wait through all the loading. If you do watch the video, try not to laugh as the user attempts to speed up the process by giving the console a few “love pats”. If only they really worked like that…

Pool Playstation fan boys just need to get over the fact that the Xbox is far more superior than the Playstation.. The Xbox has had 3 generations, while the Playstation is now on their 4th.. Pretty sad if you ask me.


Your kidding right? The only reason playstation has more gens is its been around longer than the xbox. I would gladly send you a copy of the final specs of each system, then you can judge the quality for yourself.

LOL not only that bf4 is @ 1080-p on ps4 and 720 on the one and this is now confirmed so how is that superior? superior as in more games? yes xbox has that since m$ throws money at devs but as far as power ps4 is better
no don't waist your time. Xbox players don't understand FPS and Native Resolutions. They just listen to what the CEOs at Microsoft tell them.

The Next-Gen Xbox is not superior to the Playstation 4.

playstation has always been xbox's shadow partly because they have poor advertising

No doubt the software is still in beta, these bugs will no doubt be solved for launch.

On a side note, isn't there supposed to be a day one update/patch?

gtapro151 who surprised? with all the problems 360 had of course its gonna happen again....
This is software. Imagine the hardware! Red ring of death all over again. In this case it would be the Red Light of the Death. I'm guessing.

And you are pretty stupid if you ask me, who ever said one had to be better than the other?
