But it wasn't as successfully pulled off on the Dremcast like on the Xbox. Sega had to shut it down after like 1 year. Microsoft revolutionized the FPS genre on consoles and with the launch of the original Xbox they made the west more important to the industry, it opened the door for a number of studios to start making games on consoles that otherwise would have stuck to PC development. Before the Xbox, many western game publishers like Bethesda would have stuck to PC development.

Will people please quit feeding this guy? His trolling couldn't be more obvious. 


Why would you even suggest such a thing? Meltdowns are incredible.

Meltdowns? We should be celebrating! News like this doesn't come around very often. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Of course. But the PS2 is the only one that came close, and look at its sales

Suggesting a rule by one example? Oh you

The Wii's in that same boat actually ;)

The list is missing the Xbox and GC which both had launch months that were better than the Wii's.

The Gamecube sold nearly 700k in it's first month. Pretty amazing considering how bad the lifetime sales were for the console.

So PS4 beat PS2 and Wii.




Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:

 PS4: 17m   XB1: 10m    WiiU: 10m   Vita: 10m

They did and Microsoft were the first ones who succesfully pulled of online gaming. Without Windows you wouldn't have played Counter Strike.

So why should we buy a Xbox One and not "the real deal" = a Windows PC?

By the way, Microsoft didn't pull of online or networked multiplayer gaming, they "only" offered an open platform for it.

id did (Doom, Quake), 3d Realms did (Duke 3D), Origin did (Ultima Online), Blizzard did (Diablo, StarCraft, WoW), DICE did (Battlefield 1942), Sony did (Everquest), Valve did (CounterStrike), LucasArts did (Dark Forces, Jedi Knight, X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter), Bullfrog did (Syndicate, Magic Carpet), Akklaim did (Forsaken), EA did (Need for Speed)...

The PS4 hasn't got many positive reviews, a lot of games have been delayed for it, there's simply nothing interesting to play on it at launch, no games that already aren't availble on the last gen, no backwards compatibility, it's faulty buggy and crappy. That's why Sony rushed the console to release it before the Xbox One. Most PS4s just don't turn on, when you play it for more than an hour, read the costomer reviews on the internet.

Unlike others, Microsoft learned their lesson from the RROD, and If it wasn't for the original Xbox you wouldn't have played Battlefield, Call of Duty and maybe not even Assasin's Creed on your PS4. You should be grateful for what Microsoft did with the Xbox. I've been an Xbox gamer from day 1.


1 Million North American residents would appear to disagree. ;)

Microsoft actually seemed to just follow on from what SEGA had already established with the Dreamcast. Western games were already increasingly gaining importance on consoles before Xbox. Quake III Arena and Unreal Tournament were playable online on the Dreamcast. Half Life was ported to Dreamcast (unreleased due to Sega discontinuing the system) and PS2.

Call of Duty was already on consoles before the Xbox 360 launched. Again it was a natural trend that was occurring at that time. I don't really see what point you are making.

But it wasn't as successfully pulled off on the Dremcast like on the Xbox. Sega had to shut it down after like 1 year. Microsoft revolutionized the FPS genre on consoles and with the launch of the original Xbox they made the west more important to the industry, it opened the door for a number of studios to start making games on consoles that otherwise would have stuck to PC development.

Or you know, you could quit trolling. Help make the world a better place.

With the first Xbox Microsoft was entering the market for the first time, there was a lot of exitement and hype behind it, which resulted in the great sales at first. GameCube was really inexpensive, compared to what consoles cost now. The PS4 would be outsold for the next 2 years, if it was to begin selling from 200 dollars.
