I owned one Xbox years ago. I just wanted to play games without technical issues. PC games were better but I just wanted to go arcade mode for a while. One of the first games I bought froze at the first loading screen every single time. I tried contacting the publisher, Microsoft, the developer… No one would help, barely even got responses. I exchanged it for another copy at the local store it came from, the new copy did the exact same thing. No refunds on games so I was stuck with a $50 game that didn’t work.
That’s when I realized that consoles have a lot of technical issues too, it’s just not possible for me to fix them like it is on PC. Later that same xbox red ringed.
Those morons just closed their only “indie” Japanese studio.
Xbox is no longer a serious console, just get a PC.
XBox peaked at the 360.
That was one hell of a peak though
Yeah, they really blew it.
