    Did you have an Xbox before you had an Xbox 360?

    My first console was the Xbox 360. I played Halo 2 at a friend's house (badly, as I'd never used a controller), and loved it. When Halo 3 came out, I played through it at a friend's house too, and the next day I decided to get a 360. One of the early ones, got it from Ebay, never broke. Sat next to me now, though I've replaed it with the new 360, as it won't play Reach properly (a bug that affects many older Xbox 360s). I also liked the upgrade from 20GB to 250GB!
     
    Oh, and it doesn't sound like a jet engine any more....XD

    I didn't own one, but I played an original Xbox console at a friend's house. It was the original Forza Motorsport that got me over to Microsoft's console.

    Yep. I had a group of people (hazarding a guess, a few were 20-30, and three were over 60 years old) who played Ghost Recon 2 (and various other Ghost Recon games) a rather huge amount. That was very fun.

    I did, I enjoyed the Splinter Cells on it, as well as Halo 2, and the two awesome Oddworld games that were exclusive to the XBox. But for the most part, I did play PS2, but that was a time where I didn't hear too much fanboyism.

    I got an Xbox at launch and it was my main console last generation--that isn't to say the Gamecube or PS2 didn't get much love for that's far from the case, but they certainly didn't have Halo so they were second to me. Halo 2 was... exceedingly addicting.

    Yep, but I pretty much own every console of every generation (the main stream ones, not every obscure one :P) the Xbox quickly became my fav. console. Before I enjoyed Sony's consoles more.

    Nothing on the original Xbox really grabbed my attention, so the 360 was my first Microsoft console.

    I did. It was a great console and had a far better online line-up than the 360.

    I also had a Gamecube and PS2. Didn't wanna miss out on the gems available on those platforms.

    I went NES/Amiga to Genesis to PS1/N64 to a long time of PC only gaming, missing the entire PS2, xbox, dreamcast era. Then into console games in 06 again. So nope!

    Don't have either. I played Halo at my uncle's house, and beat a level of MoH: Rising Sun for him because he couldn't figure it out and I'd played it at a friend's house. Don't have a 360 because we don't have an HDTV still (I know it's crazy in 2011). I briefly had a PS3 before the big price drop, but returned it because I hadn't opened it because I didn't really care. I still have a copy of CoD3 sitting in my room somewhere, and some PS2 games, because I had the model that did hardware emulation or whatever.

    I didn't own one, but I borrowed one from a chum while he was holidaying in foriegn climes for a fortnight (I'm British!)

    It was huge, noisy and the joypad was a fucking joke. On my list of favourite consoles, it's just below the Atari Jaguar.

    Yes just a few months before I got the 360.I played my friend's Xbox whenever I came around and I knew that the 360 didn't play all Xbox games so I bought a pre-owned from EB Games.

    Yes.

    But I've also owned every major system since the Atari 2600. The WiiU will be the first console I'll be skipping I think, unless I end up picking it up sometime afterwards.

    I can't remember if I replied to this already, but I did have an Xbox before I got my 360. Halo and Amped, best package ever.

    You know what, I'm almost certain I've already replied to this thread.
