The most fanboyed and overrated console to date.
Proof that no one in Redmond knows how to market anything; as the most "X-treme" letter in the alphabet is paired with a brief description of its shape.
Lives solely off it "superior Graphics."

"Did you play on your XBox last night?" "No, leave me alone you materialistic prep!"
"We need to launch a console..."
"Kids these days like the letter X, put an X on it."
Bill Gates was wrong when he said the future of video games is graphics, the cornerstone of the industry will always be how fun the games are to play over the way they look.

A system that only made it because of Halo and xbox-live. Any true gamer knows that. The only thing it really has going for it besides that is best versions of other ported games (big whoop) and a handful of exclusives. Ps2 has so many better games it's not even funny. Even gamecubes exclusives own xboxes. Other names that describe the xbox well are the port-box, pc-box, and the trash-box.
I guess old greedy Bill Gates wasn't already happy with his 50+billion so he decided to make a mini-pc gaming system called the x-box.

Game console for losers who either can't afford a computer, or don't have enough common sense to buy one.

A decent gaming system that has its ups and downs.
The X-Box is large, bulky, and has a huge controller, but that's beside the point. There are a few good games on it, such as Halo or Counter-strike. These games are out for the PC but need a $2000 machine to run, the X-Box costs only $100-300.
The reason most people hate it is because
A. it's made by Microsoft
B. it's huge
C. the games they played must have sucked
Just because its made by Microsoft doesn't automatically mean it sucks. Halo was made by Microsoft, and look how it's doing, hmm?
The controller is an exact duplicate of the PS2 controller, just substitute the Black and White buttons for L2 and R2. Hell you could probably play the X-Box with a PS2 controller if it had the right plug.
So, in closing, I think that the X-Box is probably the only good thing made by Microsoft.

The X-box or Xbox is the best gaming console in the world. Better graphics, fast gameplay, just superior to everything else.
Dumb people usually say the X-box (xbox) is slow, stupid, or big. But they are really jealous that they do not have one.

Where's Anthony tonight?
He went out on a booty call with Sheila, that chick he dumped last month, again.
Man, that guy plays so much X-Box it isn't funny.
