Unboxing Videos Are So Popular They’re Now Being Done in ‘Second Life’

Whenever there’s a product launch of any kind, there are numerous unboxing videos of it on YouTube. That can include anything from video games to toys to consumer electronics, even comparatively mundane stuff like non-special edition games where you have a good idea of what it’s going to look like before you watch the video. These have now been taken to their logical extreme: the virtual unboxing video. And it should come as no surprise that the community making these a thing is hardcore Second Life players.
