If you think about it, the original xbox was ahead of its time besides xbox live.

Not sure we can say it was ahead of its time for bringing PC games to consoles.

If we look back a generation we can see a number of PC centric devs releasing games on consoles; Starcraft, SimCity, Quake I & II, Duke Nukem, Rainbow Six and Carmageddon. It also was the first console which demonstrated console FPS' could work with Goldeneye. From what I remember the PS1 even had a Diablo port.

In the same gen PS2 received a number of PC franchises in Quake III, Half-Life, Deus Ex and Unreal Tournament. Sure, Microsoft helped with the porting due to DirectX, but I don't think it was until 360 that PC centric devs really started to push their games onto consoles. The most obvious examples being Infinity Ward developing both the PC/360 versions of CoD2, Epic making Gears exclusively for 360, FEAR being ported, Oblivion having a more console friendly interface and Bioshock (as the spiritual successor to System Shock 2) releasing day and date with PC.

The exception to this I think is in wRPGs. Bioware brought out Star Wars: KoToR on Xbox first, Bethesda released Morrowind on Xbox/console for the first time, Eidos released Deus Ex Invisible War with Xbox's limitations in mind, and of course MS had Fable.
