Priced much cheaper than its nearest competitor, play station 3, the Xbox was an instant favorite, and still is if the truth be told.

Microsoft did not just depend on price to build a loyal following for this game platform. They also added more options like computer connectivity for online game play. Microsoft knew there was a high interest in both online and console gaming so they simply combined the two.

There is only one small problem with most homes, the computer system and the game may not be close enough for an Ethernet connection or Mom may not want the cord strung across the floor for someone to trip on. Isnt that just like a mom?
