Actually checkoff created four accounts in the last 6 hours or so.Seriously mods/admins get rid of this idiot and his account creating abilities because he has posted the same garbage on 50+ accounts in the last half-decade or so.It's starting to get really annoying. Anyway the 360 never failed TC.The PS3 kinda failed.

Someone here might have my stolen n64 i got in 1996 on launch. If the console has a chip in the middle of the front lip ram expansion slot it's my f*cking console because i broke the glass in my entertainment center and it chipped the console right there.

Nobody failed but Sony really. Lost so much marketshare while MS and Nintendo gained big.

Going for 23 million to 70 million is generally considered a success. Throw in the fact that MS has actually profited from the 360 and that Xbox live has become a synonym for multiplayer gaming on consoles, and it becomes even more apparent just how insanely successful MS has been. They weren't perfect, but only Nintendo did a better job this generation.

The 360 failed? News to me. Last I checked, it was the most successful system of the generation.

I'm sure I'm just echoing previous posts here, but in no way was the 360 a failure. It was actually a huge success.

Its my least favorite console this gen and I think they started letting things slip half way through the gen, but they made a huge jump over the original Xbox, got tons of 3rd party support and very much held their own against two old gaming giants. I much prefer the PS3, but objectively, the 360 was every bit as good if not better.

I don't think Microsoft failed at all. I think biggest mistake was the RROD and not creating another IP

Nearly tripled sales of the Original Xbox, and stole 40% marketshare from Sony. Made MS Billions, while Sony lost billions with the PS3. The 360 did not set out to defeat the PS3 in sales. It set out to cripple the Playstation Brand and bring Sony to it's knees and make them play by MS's rules. All Fanboyism aside, MS did just that. If you think the 360 is a failure, then the PS3 must be a downright joke of a product. :roll:

For me I lost hope for the 360 brand when M$ started with all this casual BS. I just hope 720 isn't super casual.
