I know a lot of people who didn't own an Xbox before they bought a 360; most owned PS2's but were put off by the price of the PS3 (hahaha) or wanted a newer console in 2006 and some owned Gamecube's

Just out of curiosity, who did own an original Xbox before they got a 360?

I had a GameCube first, bought an X-Box when Ninja Gaiden came out. I now have a 360/Wii. Was never much of a playstation guy.

I bought an Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube all within a 2 week period. I got a PS2 because a friend was telling me how awesome GTA3 was. This was right when the first PS2 price cut happened which was like 18 months after release. The Xbox and Gamecube had a price cut immediately as well. So, I picked them up as well.

This generation, I bought all 3 consoles as soon as I could find one after release. Amazingly, the hardest console to get now, the Wii, I got on release day. I got my 360 6 weeks after release when I finally found one at Walmart. I got a PS3 about 3 weeks after release at Gamestop.

I owned an Xbox. I got it on Christmas Day, I was playing NFL2K and it was freezing on me. I was definitely hesitant on getting a 360, but Best Buys warranty makes me feel safer.

I was a PS2 guy. I decided to get the Xbox 360 for Mass Effect. Big fan of Bioware that I didn't want to wait for a PC version (Which most likely wouldn't have even work on my PC). Oh also, I wanted to get Conker: Live and Reloaded. :P

I had a playstation 2 then bought the game cube and bought the xbox. The xbox was my favourite out of the three so I bought the 360 instead of PS3 or WII.

I owned an Xbox before the 360. It was a tough decision at the time betwwen PS2 & Xbox because MS was new to the race. I'm glad I went with Xbox and then 360 because I like the games they have more than PS2 & PS3 at least for now.

I went ps1 to ps2, then a couple years later I bought xbox, and then I was able to trade my xbox into EB games for $100 towards an xbox 360, so I did that.

Great choice! I LOVE Conker: Live and Reloaded, but it's a shame my old Xbox dodn't have live. Still, 'Conker's Bad Fur Day' still rocked lol!

No but I did borrow it from my brother a couple of times, it was an underrated console I think. I was one of the many PS2 owners last gen, then I got a 360 and a PS3 after that.

I owned an original Xbox. First console I had bought since the NES (big PC gamer). Played it for about 6-8 months and then, through good marketing, sold it for the same price I bought it for (minus the cost of a speeding ticket on the way to FedEx).

I've literally owned every console ever released in the U.S. - including the 3DO and Jaguar - and all the other unusual flops of their day. LOL

So yes I had an Xbox.

Not I. I was a PS2 and GC owner. Bought the 360 for the lower price point, the better selection of games and the ability to play a few Xbox games I never got a chance to (namely Jade Empire).

Dude - I know - that system was WAY ahead of it's time. And to think the primary reason Atari cited for failure was too high of a price point!!! LOL

I jumped on the Xbox side of the board when Knights of the Old Republic came out. That was a system seller for me and I haven't looked back. Although I do still play my PS2 when I want to play God of War

I got an xbox and it was the first console I ever bought. Before that I onyl played 2D strategy games and heretic 2 on my PC. The graphics were amazing compaired to my PC and after playing Halo on friend his brother's xbox I got my own. First game I bought was Morrowind which immediatly made the xbox my best purchase ever.

I had the PS2 and Xbox systems but only for a short period of time. I go both of those systems late so by the time the new systems came out, I was already selling them.

I had xbox. I was playing Halo and Project Gotham Racing. Then I got xbox live and played this terrible game called "Whacked!" and everyone was using voice masking to make themselves sound like squeaky little kids or like the dark master or something.

I owned all 3 systems last gen. Last gen I got the xbox last :o. But this gen I got a 360 when it came out, same for the wii, now im just waiting for the mgs 4 bundle to come out. But back to the 360, I currently spend most of my gaming time on this, and ive invested a whole lot more money this gen than I did for the xbox. I think a reason for this was because when the last gen started ( dreamcast) I was still in my pre teens, I didnt like many mature games back then, mainly Nintendo games. But as I grew older my tastes in games changed, so I decied to get a 360. :D and it was also due to it being cheaper than a PS3 >_>

I progressed as such: PS2 --> Xbox --> Xbox 360. So yes--I did own the original Xbox before I bought a 360.

I didnt had orignal Xbox but I was carving for it since somethings were that PS2 jsut cant fulfill but hen as soon as 360 came out I GOT IT. Although it was 2006 July till then but it was the soonest time I got to have it. I am looking forward for PS3 but GOW3 and Twisted Metal are on my list not a fan of MGS or FF. Cant say why but this is the problem of my whole country.

I had all 3 last gen systems. I got the 360 because of Gears, Halo 3, and resident Evil 5.
