The Xbox One's announcement to release (in meme form)

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.

It's been a long road from the first reveal to now for Microsoft, but the Xbox One finally launches on November 22nd, and after that, it's all about the games...and the memes that will come from them. Which we're looking forward to. Did we miss any Xbox One pics? Let us know in the comments.
