Xbox One launch event to be streamed on Spike TV, Xbox channels

4.6
Not to be outdone, Microsoft is hosting its own Spike TV-aired launch event for the Xbox One next week, and it'll air at 8PM PT/11PM ET on Thursday, November 21. You'll also be able to watch the live show on Xbox.com and Xbox Live, which will showcase launch events taking place across the globe, as well as the "ultimate midnight celebration" taking place in New York City.

"Today we invite millions of Xbox fans around the world to join us for the launch of Xbox One, beginning on Nov. 21 as we count down the final hours to the launch of Xbox One," Corporate VP of Marketing & Strategy Yusuf Mehdi proclaimed. "Xbox One will be the biggest launch in the history of Xbox and we can't wait to celebrate with our fans."

There's no word if Microsoft's shindig will match the "exclusive world premieres and announcements" of tomorrow's PS4 event - whatever they may be - but the apparent "pinnacle of the evening" is Macklemore and Ryan Lewis performing outside the Best Buy Theater in in Times Square. Make of that what you will.

In case you've got this far and are still wondering what the hubbub's about, we better remind you the Xbox One launches in nine days time on November 22, priced $500.

It was on SpikeTV and Microsoft had a live feed that they gave out the link to on their twitter.


I never really got to watch any of these. I simply couldn't find the spare time


I don't blame you.
None of the streams started until close to launch which was quite late at night.

Caszech This is cool, really cannot wait.


It always gets me hyped up about the new consoles.


Both companies have been doing a pretty good job hyping both their consoles up. Hopefully the Xbox One will be just as good as Microsoft is making it out to be
