My favourite little titbit is the following so far:

 

"The DX team had a clear understanding of what was happening in the console and PC games businesses at the time, and posited that it was better to lose PC gamers to a Microsoft console than to one made by Sony or Nintendo"

 

That right there sums up so much about MS initial direction with Xbox and the 360 and why the console initially was only really embraced in the US and the UK - IMHO anyway.


Well you can't really say that because according to those articles the ideaology for Xbox changed so much and so many times by the time it was greenlit it was totally different from what they first conceived. It's interesting to me that so many people were against it. I mean I could understand third parties being hesitant but the majority of their opposition was internal.



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.
