XboxOne1

[UPDATE  2]

Microsoft has now confirmed that yes, the Xbox One will indeed be at this year’s rAge, confirming what we already knew.  Ryse, Forza 5 and Dead Rising 3 will be on show. 

[UPDATE 1] It appears there has been some crossed telephone wires on this story. So to clarify what we’ve now been  told officially.

Microsoft is doing their utmost of have the Xbox One console at rAge this year but nothing has yet been confirmed. We do not know when the console will land on our local shores or what its price will be.

Once we have 100% confirmation of the Xbox One at rAge we will let everyone know.

[Original story follows]

Want to get your hands on that absolutely sublime controller with vibrating triggers soon? Well good news then, because from October 4-6, you’ll be able to do just that. We’ve just heard from Microsoft SA that the next-gen console will be making an appearance at rAge. It’s totally worth standing in a long line for. VIBRATING TRIGGERS YO!

    Ultimate trolling will be standing in the line and then peeing/vomiting/something on the console.

    I don’t approve, but I think it would be funny

    Damn strikes and damn government are causing the rand to collapse. Sitting at R10.17/$ currently. I’m really not keen to see the effect this is going to have on next gen pricing 8(.

      Yeah, like every game publisher in the industry. Where would you recommend they show off their new console if not at Rage? It is an annual event and the biggest gaming expo in South Africa. Don’t be snarky.

        I’m not mocking them for showing us the console. My comment was more to do with South Africa being like the only country along with North Korea not getting the console this year.
