November 15, 2001 the original XBox was released

November 22, 2005 the 360 was released.

Just over four years of shelf life of the 360 would already eclipse the length of the original XBox shelf life. In 2006 there were only a few good XBox games released: Double Agent, Winning Eleven 9, Midnight Club Dub Edition, Lego Starwars 2, Mortal Kombat and Outrun imho and some of those games saw 360 versions. Microsoft was quick to kill the original XBox because they lost over five billion on it.

Now that the 360 is gaining them profit (which will hopefully be confirmed by their newest financial reports soon) I don't see them being in a rush to release the 720, so yeah the 360 should *atleast* have a 6 year life span.

 

 



It's just that simple.
