Maybe the Xbox One isn’t so big after all

Having seen the Xbox One up close, in person, Microsoft's next-gen system looks considerably larger than both its Xbox 360 predecessor and PlayStation 4 competitor. Aside from Microsoft's botched policies, the size of the system has been a main source of criticism among consumers.

Of course, the majority of the shots shown to the general public have been of the system on its own, with nothing to sort of set the space.

Thankfully, Microsoft's senior director of product management Albert Penello tweeted a picture of the Xbox One in hi home — and surprisingly, the system doesn't look too overbearing when surrounded by other devices. It is noticeably larger than the Xbox 360, but it seems to fit in quite nicely with his setup. Granted everyone's setup will look differently, but it's good to know the Xbox One won't be an eyesore in your living room.

What do you make of the Xbox One's size?
