Your missing achievements. Which is the best innovation this generation imo.

Also Microsoft pioneered not just online gaming. But also Pioneered Social networking in gaming viia Xbox Live with apps etc. Essentially a gaming facebook.


Sega pioneered online gaming on consoles. Microsoft just helped them two generations after their first attempt on the Genesis and then the Saturn. The PS3 had apps before Xbox Live. Xbox Live didnt really have them until NXE.


Well Sega attempted a dial up internet based service.

Microsoft pioneered online gaming and its infrastructure. Forced Broadband only. Dedicated servers. Lag free online matches. Games that actually didnt disconnect

I KNow I had a Dreamcast. It wasnt online gaming. It was Ghost online gaming. in 2 mins bursts.

 

Get the hell out of here with PS3. LOL at it had apps first. Not sure why you think NXE brought that to the table, it was on Blades in 2006. Just not the same way.

As for the whole Live social experience which is what I was referring to, Microsoft created that and brought it to the console world.

 

So like I said.

1. Microsoft created achievements.

2. Microsoft created a social network for consoles

These 2 things are missing from the OP list and have been the most heavily copied innovations this generations.
