FULL STORY
======================================================================

Microsoft's latest Xbox Series X sweepstakes features a Fallout-themed vault 
that probably won't fit in most folks' gaming setups. 

The giveaway has been put together in order to promote the upcoming Fallout 
TV show, coming to Amazon Prime Video on April 11. It features a custom Xbox 
Series X (and unlike the Final Fantasy 14 giveaway , it looks like this one 
will actually work) and Xbox Wireless Controller , both sporting some rather 
lovely Fallout designs. 

But the thing that really sets this giveaway apart is the colossal Fort 
Knox-branded vault that can be used to store the console and its gamepad. 
Going off the screenshot alone, this lockable obelisk looks to be about four 
times the size of the Xbox Series X console. Vault Boy would approve.Follow &

As with previous Xbox console giveaways, there's only one of these up for 
grabs and it can't be bought separately. To enter, you must be over 18 years 
of age and follow the instructions outlined in the tweet above. 
Unfortunately, the sweepstakes is only open to US residents. 

These (extremely) limited edition Xbox giveaways are certainly getting a bit 
more ambitious. While the Final Fantasy 14 console was a bit of a misstep as 
it was purely for ornamental purposes (that giveaway also included a separate 
standard Xbox Series X console to play on), the design was nonetheless quite 
interesting and thematically appropriate for the game. 

I think that by and large, most of these custom Xbox consoles have been 
pretty garish, especially those Wonka and Barbie variants. For this Fallout 
giveaway, I'm really digging the simple yet stylish Vault Boy iconography to 
the point where I could see it blending nicely with my gaming setup. The 
massive vault may be a touch too much, though. You might also like The best
