Congrats to that guy only game out right now is ghosts but at least he can play it.
He was way too excited to try and video that with any quality.
I gotta say that's pretty cool and like you guys said they definitely messed up the unboxing.
Someone at target is fired.

Actually, the console is useless until the "Day One" update. can't play a game at all...
He downloaded the update and has been posting screenshots all over twitter said it was 500mb

He's going to get an assload of Twitter followers over the next few days. Its really good to hear the interface is solid and the experience is great. He seems quite pleased and no complaints for now.
That "Someone" was making minimum wage, like he gives 2 craps haha!Someone at target is fired.
Surprised they haven't banned his console. No company allows you to play games early.

Maybe they don't want the bad PR from banning him.
And they banned him lol
And they banned him lol

That's a bit bullshit. If target fucked up and sent it early, that's not his fault. I wonder if he's called tech support about it.
About the only way I could say this is OK is if it's a temp ban and they intend to lift it on the consoles release date. But that does not seem likely.
Confusing that MS has them ready to go and are arriving at stores now but the release date is still almost two weeks away. I'd have to think Sony has the edge being released a week early.
I don't really think it matters. Both consoles sold out everywhere that did a pre-order. Any systems that will be available on day one will sell out day one. After that, both X1 and PS4 will be working to restock shelves as fast as they can for the holiday, and by that point it's just about what someone wants, not release date.
The simple fact is, the percentage of people that wanted a next-gen console, but did not pre-order, and are placing their sole purchasing decision on which one they can walk into a store and buy first, is probably so incredibly slim it's not measurable.

Luckily for everyone, this didn't happen to me. Because it'd still be in the box.
If you know how to use the Internet and are a gamer, you know that playing games before they are officially released can and usually does result in ban. I don't feel sorry for him even if Target shipped it early. They didn't plug it in and power it on, he did.
Where did he sign a legal contract with Microsoft promising not to play it until the 22nd? He legally owned the system. Once Target delivered the product and took his cash, it was his property.

@yosp If for some reason the console received before 29 in Europe and connect to the internet, Sony bans us?
