Xbox One has arrived in New York City. In the hours preceding its debut in the United States, Xbox organized a host of festivities to celebrate the launch of its new generation console. Hundreds of consoles were delivered by armored trucks and a procession of Roman soldiers from “Ryse: Son of Rome,” zombies from “Dead Rising 3” and exotic race cars from “Forza Motorsport 5” coursed through the city towards the ultimate launch party, headlined by celebrity performers Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, at the Best Buy Theater in Time Square.
