Did the 360 fall? What was the biggest mistake microsoft made?
- Nov 20, 2012 8:49 am GMToriginal xbox will always own xbox360. it had so many new ip's trying to establish a franchise.
- Nov 20, 2012 8:51 am GMTabout only new ip for 360 first party published was gears of war. Compared to like 30 new ips on original xbox.

Oh Eddie and his tryhard ways.
So adorable.
On topic: Of course the 360 didn't fail. It nearly tripled its predecessor's install base, has the best games library on a console in terms of quality and quantity, has created the best console online gaming service that Sony and Nintendo are still playing catch up to and has made the Xbox brand a household name.
Fanboys will try as hard as they can to paint the 360 as a failure but anyone in the real world can see through their delusional ramblings.

[QUOTE="FPSfan1985"]There biggest mistake is easily the RROd stuff. Outside of that however the 360 has been great for pushing the xbox brand. The xbox brand is huge not only in gaming but in all media entertainment right now. [/QUOTE]yup. If it werent for rrod ms would be fighting for first place instead of second. The 360 was synonymous with poor quality for years

Out of all the new IPs released by Sony the only one I care even a little about is Uncharted. I'm a firm believer in if it ain't broke don't fix it. And MS's current lineup don't need fixing.
