| TheSting said: It was more than Halo. Live was brand new. They had Peyton Manning pimping the new NFL Sports game. Shenmue was released(1&2 again). The system was brand new. Platforming and party games were apart of it as well. Listen to music you stored while you play your games. Halo was main no doubt but there were other very good factors. |
I agree.Yeah halo was big, but there were many factors that sold the console.I never owned an Xbox up until the XB1, but I remember being really impressed with all the homebrew the console had.To me consoles were just about putting a disc in a console and playing, so it really blew me away when I saw all the things the console was capable of , since at the time I just had no idea how it was doing them.I really do believe that homebrew may have been one of the reasons of why it outsold the GC.
