Remembering the Xbox - 10 Years
Nick, Julian, and Esteban explore the notable games and lasting impact of the Xbox.
Back in late 2001, Microsoft first entered the realm of console gaming with the Xbox. Although its sales numbers are nothing impressive when compared to that of the PlayStation 2, it did manage to outsell longtime videogame company Nintendo's GameCube, which is still a fine showing for a first console outing. Despite being a massive financial loss for the company, it laid the groundwork for much of what is now standard in the gaming industry.
Furthermore, Microsoft managed to attract some fairly notable Japanese games and establish its presence. Cult classics like Shenmue II now forever have a place in American gaming history, right alongside Halo and Fable.
Join Esteban, Julian, and Nick as they explore the lasting impact of the Xbox for its 10th Anniversary.
