There is no denying many of us here has been gaming for a long time, way before xbox existed and if you have been gaming for a long time there is no doubt you were once a fan of Nintendo, Sega, and/or Sony consoles. So what made you go over to Microsoft and the Xbox Brand?
For me, my first console was a PS2 which I had so fun on, I bought over 50 games and I played the hell out of them. but then on the news I heard that Microsoft will soon be releasing this new console called XBOX! I thought it sounded awesome and it looked way cooler then any other console I have seen in my entire life. For christmas my uncle managed to get me a RARE Limited Edition Halo Xbox which lit up green when turned on, I nearly cried! Other than my Uncle some how downloading about 100 games onto it with a USB I went down to EB Games myself and bought Halo 2. This mate, was like no other game, I literally fell in love. I knew that this whole fps aspect would some how get competitive, AND IT DID! I never really went to the many LAN tournaments that were held in Sydney (Australia) nor did I join any of the Online tournaments. But it was amazing knowing that this game made by bungie is what turned Xbox into a competitive console, it is the reason why competitve fps even exists on the xbox. Without it we would be stuck with doing 1v1's on Little Big Planet on Playstation. Xbox is and always will be the only console for competitve. And that is one of the many reasons why I LOVE it!
