I'm an Xbox fan and the 360 is the reason why.
In the 6th gen, I owned everything except an Xbox. Somewhere between 2001 and 2007, my opinion changed. It damn sure wasn't brand loyalty. The games played a major part but the console and the online--the evolution of what the thing could do is what won me over.
Playing Uno online at night with other people (often hot women who didn't mind showing some skin), one vs 100, the new dashboard, Netflix, Kinect--it's like they kept finding more and more power to unlock. To this day, I still have days where the console plays Last.FM or I Heart Radio. It wasn't about console wars. The console just managed to weasel itself into my life in a way the other consoles never could. Best console ever--even though mine broke twice.

Your comments would be fine if the topic was my "favourite console" but alas it's best engineered console.

I thought my post was within the peremeters of the OP. The Xbox started off in 2005 with a certain set of abilities and over time, it was able to evolve based solely on what was in the box. The console was a mutant, even able to do tricks the PS3 couldn't even though it released a year earlier (longer or shorter depending on who you ask and what the topic is). I personally was amazed by it. Will the PS4 and Xbox One evolve just as much before the gen ends?
If it's not what the OP is about, then forgive me. I acknowledge the Xbox 360's poor build quality but they thing was able to perform magic. It was future-proof!
