I love Windows, the 360 is a great console, and Bill gates isn't like Scrooge McDuck... Everything sounds good to me....

I just think people don't like their strategy of buying the competition out. They tried to buy out both Ninty and Sega a while back, and since then has been buying up both exclusive games and companies to help themselves defeat Sony and Nintendo........................................... and Apple.

If you look at it though, the 360 wouldn't even be here if they hadn't done this...


Thats the sad part, Even SONY started alittle rough but when they got in the market, they started to establish their identity which MS still hasnt done, except being a cheap SONY ripoff with alittle Nintendo on the side

Wut?  Sony has been copying both Microsoft and Nintendo since they brought out the PS3.  The Xbox brand had Xbox Live long before Sony decided to rip off its features.  It brought a decidedly PC flavor to consoles which the PS3 because of it's lack of dominance or whatever is now a part of.  Seriously if anything it's Sony that lost its identity.

MS whole career In the gamming industry, HELL in general, is nothing but lookin at what everybody else is doing, taking bits and pieces, giving it a coat of new gloss and then slapping MS on it.

I have never had a problem with M$ software. And I use tons of it. Visual Studios, all of their Office stuff(Word, Excel, Visio, etc), their new Windows Live programs are nice, Mesh is nice, etc. Never really had a problem with Windows.

I especially like their Zune software. It is about to become more prevalent on a lot more devices. This is probably going to be an announcement at E3, Zune integration with the 360.

The original Xbox was more reliable than the PS2.  The amount of P2s with problem lasers is pretty significant in my opinion.
