XBOX unveil on March 10, 2000
XBOX Stories Gallery-Xbox-360-history--001

Did you have one last gen and did you get it at launch? I had a gamecube mainly and a ps2 late in the cycle. My bro had one and i played it sometimes.If i knew xbox live was that good i would have gotten XBOX. post your launch stories or when ever you got it. Also when did you first played XBOX?

I first played XBOX sometime in 2001 i believe in a kiosk at toys r us in union square. They also had a gamecube with metroied. The XBOX game was Halo and i remember being amazed at the graphics,also i kicked some fat lady's ass in it lol. I still remember her saying something about how do you run.

I first played Xbox & Halo on Christmas time 2001 right after the Xbox launched, and I got a PS2 at the same time. I loved Halo though. Once I played XBConnect w/ Halo, I couldnt get enough of it and ended up BUYING MY OWN XBOX in late 2004 when Halo 2 came out, and have been on Xbox LIVE since. I got my Xbox 360 2 months after launch, and I think the console is worth every penny.

Xbox was a beast last gen. I was pissed when Microsoft released the 360 after I bought it like 1 year later.

I never got into gaming until i bought my 360 in 2006. Since then ive loved playing online, and the constant exclusives just make gaming on Xbox 360 that much sweeter.

I actually never got any of the three systems; Ps2, Gamecube and Xbox around the launch date.
I bought the gamecube a year or so later, a few years later I bought the ps2 and I never bought the xbox.
lol
I have played an Xbox for a good length of time and so know what it's like; Of the 3 systems my favourite is Gamecube due to the fantastic multiplayer experience (Marioparty, Warioware, Mariokart, etc) diverse library despite being Nintendo lol and crisp graphics.
Ps2 and Xbox I would say are about equal imo. I mean, if you sum things up, ps2 is probably in first place, xbox second and gamecube third but as for games, gamecube is my favourite despite some of my favourite games of all time being on ps2 and the xbox being a complete beaastt!!!
xD

The only console I ever bought at launch was a PSP. That's about 4 years ago. I love the thing to bits. I am more of a handheld gamer and I actually seem to spend more time on my psp than 360 somehow lol

Owned a PS, PS2, went to store to buy a PS3 and found an Xbox Elite that looked better and bought it. That's how the story began.

Got an xbox at christmas some time in 2004 I think. It used to be my uncles and he had it modded and I got a load of great games with it but the fist one I played was halo 2. That game just blew me away and I never really went back to my ps2 which I had at the time. Did'nt have internet back then so i never got to try live out so i never really got into gaming online till i got my xbox 360 last christmas.
I sold it last year to a friend of mine that now never plays it Sad

I started with the ps2 and never really liked the XBOX...well because i never really played it. I wanted to get a ps3 because I loved my ps2 but $600 sounded like the dumbest SHIT. My parents got me an Xbox 360 and I LOVED IT and still do. I just got XboxLIVE around last March or so and had my Xbox 360 for almost 2 years...(from christmas Very Happy ) With only 3 total overheats and 0 problems.

Before I got online, I played my Xbox 360 4-5 days out of the week. Ever since I got XboxLIVE, I've played EVERY DAY except for 2 days out of 9 or so months!
PS3's online isnt that fun.
