Didn't you win a taco bell PS4 too?  You lucky son of a gun.

I don't know if that counts as a win turf. I still have stomach cramps from those quesarito demons.

Just to be clear because I didn't explicitly say it and I figure it may be misinterpreted, I only won the Xbox One system and not the PS4. The only pic I could find was the two together.

In any event, still pretty cool and I'll finally get to play the old Rare games. I always said I wouldn't buy another Xbox branded console and I stand by that. But I'm also not going to toss it in the trash. And that Doom paint job is pretty friggin awesome looking!

That's pretty cool. How much you selling it for on eBay?

Lol

Believe me, the thought has crossed my mind. If I see them going for ridiculous sums, I may have to think about it. It's Doom, it looks cool and I'll have the chance to play a few games that are exclusive. I've looked and sealed copies of Sunset Overdrive go for less than fifteen bucks. I picked up the Master Chief Collection for $22 new/sealed & shipped on eBay. Along with Rare Replay, I'll be good for quite some time. There is honestly not that many games I want/want to play that are Xbox exclusive and I've cut way back on my collecting as is. I'll be more than happy to revisit the Bungie-era Halo games. I've missed those.

Congrats, but yea if it was me, I'd be selling it in a heartbeat. I'm not a modern gamer nor a doom fan so it means nothing to me. I could use that money for some nice retro pre-crash goodies for the collection. That's not to diminish your win. It's awesome because you won and it's awesome that its something you love, so again, congrats

I definitely considered selling it when I got it.  I'm sure it would go for big money being a custom system from Bethesda themselves.  But...I've always loved Doom.  I even broke my "no-game-buying" moratorium for Doom.  I've been sitting on copies of Rare Replay and Titanfall (Collector's Edition) for quite some time now.  I just went ahead and picked up the Halo Master Chief Collection on eBay and I'll probably pick up Sunset Overdrive since I can get a new/sealed copy for fifteen bucks (and it's one of the few Xbox exclusives that I was sad to never have a chance to play).  Ori and the Blind Forest sounds great and it's on disc now for under $20 so I'll get that.  There are some others I will eventually probably pick up when the price is right.  I'm not looking to get into Xbox gaming in any major capacity, let alone buying full-retail priced games.

personally if it were me I would attempt to trade it for that sweet sweet ps4 one. it looks 1,000,000x better than the xbox version.

How many were made for each?

[desocietas]

Don't forget that you can play some old 360 games on that thing! (unless you alreaady own a 360, lol)

No clue. I assume it's a very small amount, probably in the hundreds at most for each. I'm good with it since I already own three PS4s. And hey, this will give me a chance to go back and play the classic Halo games. I still love those.

Ah, no 360 for a couple years now. But the 360 games I would be interested in are dirt cheap now (Reach, ODST) and are backward compatible.

[gf78]

Well, I think I pretty much have the games I wanted to play now.  Just waiting for the Xbox to arrive.

I have eight games now:
Ori and the Blind Forest
Halo the Master Chief Collection
Halo 5 Guardians
Gears of War Ultimate Edition
Rare Replay
Ryse Day One Edition (hey, it was seven bucks with a shiny metallic cover!)
Sunset Overdrive Day One Edition
Titanfall Collector's Edition

[gf78]

Here it is!  They included a copy of Doom signed by a bazillion people too!
