Do you even Xbox?

The initial announcement of the Xbox One sparked a tidal wave of reactions, both good and bad, from every corner of the gaming world. Fans had their concerns about DRM and game sharing, and what better way to showcase those concerns than by making funny Internet meme pictures about them?

This is a showcase of the interwebs' best work concerning the new Xbox, from its initial reveal in May to its impeding release, thanks to sites like DIYLOL, memegenerator, memecenter, memebase, quickmeme, Reddit Gaming, and more. Take a look and laugh as you remember the past few months, then get ready for the real deal on November 22nd.

Jason Fanelli
WHY HELLO THERE! Name's Jason, hailing from right outside Philadelphia. I've been playing the vidya games for well over 20 years, starting with the NES and making my way all the way up to the Wii U. My mother tells people that I taught myself to read at age 3 using Wheel of Fortune Family Edition on the NES. I'm the type of guy that will try anything once, but I do have a few favorite genres, fighting and RPG being at the top. I've been writing about video games since I finished my Broadcast Journalism degree at Temple University in December 2008, mostly for www.gamernode.com. Since then I've been to three E3s, two New York Comic Cons, the first ever PAX East, and many more to come (I hope). I hope everyone enjoys my stuff as much as I love producing it. Hit me up on Twitter @bigmanfanelli, I love talking games with anyone and everyone.
