Rumor: Microsoft giving away white Xbox Ones to some of its employees

4.5
While most folks are waiting patiently for the launch of the brand new Xbox One, Microsoft has gone ahead and made its employees an offer they can’t refuse. Following its tradition of gifting their own devices to the folks that help build them, the company is supposedly giving away a special edition of the Xbox One to the full-timers in its Interactive Entertainment Business.

This special edition Xbox will reportedly feature a white and silver casing with controller, which, many folks would argue, looks even better than the “liquid black” of the retail version of the device. Eligible employees will also receive a year of Xbox Live and all first party games for free.

Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen the white Xbox One. A leaked developer kit showed up last month looking somewhat similar to the one in this image. And we can’t confirm just yet if this rumor is true, but if it is, some Microsoft employees will be very happy come November.

Knowing Microsoft if they put this for sale.. The price would be way too much.

That is a crazy bonus for them. I think this looks a million times better then the black one. I wonder if in the beginning they planned to have a white model along side the black model but it got scraped so they are giving it to their employes. This is also amazing that they are giving a years worth of live away and all 1st party games, this is worth at least $1,000 per employee.
