Twenty-five years ago, Microsoft entered the console market with a hulking black machine, an enormous controller and a game called Halo. What followed changed the industry in ways few could have predicted, and today, the original Xbox is finding an unlikely new home in our pockets.
Not shure how the x-box changed gaming forever. More like “one of the consoles of all time.”
Yeah - I was a PC gamer back then and the Xbox was trying to do what we were doing on real computers already.
Most games are pretty simple. You jump on enemies, you die, you have to insert another quarter to continue. The XBox changed that.
