MS set the standard a lot of features consoles use today.  Broadband connection, built in hdd, could output a 1080p HD signal, Xbox live set an industry standard for online gaming, party chat, achievements, cloud saves. So if you want to keep projecting ignorance along with everyone that agreed with you, then go for it. 

What are your sources for these claims?  Any source I find says Dreamcast did internet first. And Xbox/PS3 Did 1080p with in a few weeks.  PS3 came out a year later but started with it, where as Xbox only got a patch for it a couple weeks before.

I found an article about PS3 cloud saves coming out in March where as I can only find an article about Xbox 360 in June. Both 2011.

They were interesting to research though.

Xbox popularized online gaming and set the foundation consoles use today. I didn't say it was the first to do it. The original Xbox could output 1080i, not 1080p my mistake. You are right about cloud saves. Was Xbox 360 the first console to have a removeable harddrive, popularize indie games on consoles, and popularize entertainment apps? I remember when Netflix came to the Xbox 360 for the first time before it blew up on everything. Indie games blew up with xbox arcade games. Point still stands, MS popularized many features console take advantage of today and didn't copycat everything like Jumpin claims.
