opposite question: what is there to *like* about xbox?

I don't know the term for it, but isn't it the system most devoted to the stereotypical Call of Duty/EA Sports/Mountain Dew/redneck crowd? And then throw the whole "attempted surveillance camera in your living room" thing on top, and I don't see why any genuine gamer would ever want one.

Personally I only ever owned an XBox 360 to have access to XNA Community Games. I played and enjoyed a *few* games on the original XBox, but barely. (I do love the Forza series, (2 and 3 anyway).)

Actually the more I think about it the more it irritates me. It's like Internet Explorer. Microsoft attempting to grab hold of an industry without knowing WTF it's doing, pouring tons of effort and money into it resulting in nothing but a mess, and in the process effectively damaging the industry rather than really contributing to it. Microsoft is turning into such a shit company.

It's actually pretty bad considering that say 90% of the worlds computers are run by their O/S, and their company is slowly but surely being driven into the ground by incompetent management. Confirming that 90% number I'm not surprised to find the following headline: https://www.extremetech.com/computing/227693-windows-drops-below-90-market-share-for-the-first-time-in-years-windows-7-falls-below-50

The truth basks in scrutiny.
