Nope...After the Sega Genesis's being gang raped by the Sega CD & 32 X ( both of which i shamefully owned ) I turned away from consoles and became a PC only gamer. It was the Xbox 360 that pulled me back into consoles again.
"Sold my PS2 and bought the XBOX. Right after i got the 360 the old one died on me. Talk about luck:P "
Sure, luck... or Microsoft giving random XBOX owners a little extra motivation.
Nope. I actually hated (and still don't like) the Xbox brand from a marketing and business perspective. However, I'm a practical man. The 360 has every game this gen that I want to play except for MGS4 (so far), and the MGS series has gone so far away from gameplay that I can literally watch the entire game through Bittorrent.
Yeah although I preferred my PS2. Now I prefer my X360 so next gen I guess we'll just have to wait and see (tho im not betting heavily on Nintendo ever again.
(Owned ZX Specturm, Amiga, NES, Master system. SNES, Megadrive / genesis, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, X360, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Gameboy, DS, PSP, Sega handheld that I cant remeber the name & various PCs). Never owned a Dream-cast tho :(
I won one in a competition about a year before the 360 came out, but at this point I had a big PS2 Collection and instead sold the Xbox and bought a bunch of PS2 games.
My PS2 got more overall play the last generation but I spent a helluva lot of time playing Halo/Halo 2 and the KOTOR games. Burnout 3 and Ninja Gaiden Black were pretty damn good as well.
yes before that i have a gamecube and before that nothing but nintendo consoles. i kinda dislike Sony strongly and would never buy anything from that copycat company :)
Interesting fact: I got a 360 in 2007. I bought an original Xbox on the cheap off of EBay in summer of '09. Why, you ask? Because at that point I really wanted a console to mod. I did that, too, and even put a 40GB hard drive in it. Fun days.
I used it to play some Super NES and GBA games, by the way. I played some original Xbox games on it, but not a whole lot of them. KOTOR 2 is on there, I have yet to really play it though. For now, it's in my closet. Still works, don't really care for it. I don't regret spending $30 on it, though.
I did not have an XBOX prior to getting a 360. Moreover, 360 is the first games console I've ever owned. Hell, prior to nabbing a 360, my only exposure to consoles was playing on a Megadrive once, about 20 years ago.
Yes i did, also had Gold account. Which is kind of weird to think about now, it pretty much only let you play online games, the service was pretty limited.
