I would say definitely Xbox Live. The first serious attempt at online gaming for consoles. Everything before was kind of an afterthought. Stuff like SegaNet didn't compare. Xbox definitely brought the PC type infrastructure to gaming, and it was better for it. We got hdds for space as opposed to memory cards, and that was definitely a great thing. Only downer is that you had to pay for the service, and the others jumped on that business model, kind of tainting it in the process. |
We've had this discussion on VGChartz before. And, yeah, the general concensus, with which I agree, is that MS brought online gaming into the mainsteam, and pushed it forward from there. That and the harddrive.
