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…

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.

DavidDo0M And the PS4 fantards come pouring into the XBOX ONE news section for no reason other than to talk trash. Get a life losers. As stated by the author of this article, these are not final product consoles. Final product will be much more polished. No electronic device has EVER released without some margin or error or small failure rate, not even your precious Playstations. So, troll your way back over to the Playstation news section. You notice how we act like adults here instead of childishly running over to the PS news section to troll? Try on some maturity and common sense. See how they fit.

Side Note: Out of curiosity, since this event was held in the United Kingdom, why did he keep selecting United States at the connection start up screen?

Now it's just like the Nintendo section ;)

I would fired those technician that sets this up. Don't just assume that everything is connected and that it will work. Give it a trial run first...this is after all a demonstration.

mxzd some say the xbox one is still checking his connection to this day.


Some say the playstation will once again, be trailing in sales.


No because playstation also had problems at e3 where the screen kept freezing


This problem is less than a month away from release. E3 was like 6 months ago. There is a difference. I also think they will fix this no problem though. I am getting the PS4 but I would hate for the xbox to have problems at launch. I can't wait until they come out!

I think you need to revise your research since the PS3 has sold more units than the xbox 360 lmao


Actually it hasn't. This is the first month in over a year that the ps3 sold more units then the xbox one. It was all only due to the PS3/GTA V Bundle. Stop acting like an intelligent b!tch and get your sh!t straight.
