XBox

Updated 3/25/07

Welcome to my XBox site!

On Monday, Nov. 21st, 2005 I camped out at a Super Target in Davenport, IA with the intention of being one of the first gamers in the area to get a new XBox 360. My efforts paid off because by 6 a.m. the following morning, I had my new system. Not enough can be said about the new XBox. It is a truly awesome piece of gaming hardware. I picked up Call of Duty 2 and Perfect Dark Zero. COD2 was a great campaign but a very weak multiplayer option. This has since been fixed and the game is truly great. All in all, I am very pleased with my new purchase.

I am also a member of a very cool clan of players known as Live League Play (LLP for short). If you see one of these guys online, give them a shout for a game as we all play fairly and to win.

Put your gamertag here too.

Xbox 360 More than 10 million Xbox 360s have hit store shelves since launch in November 2005, and more than 160 high-definition games are now available, including Viva Piñata™, Gears of War® and Crackdown™.

Xbox 360 is now available in 37 countries. The overall software attach rate for Xbox 360 is 4.6 titles per console in the United States, with a record-breaking accessory attach rate of 2.9 units per console.

Xbox Live Usage

More than six million people are Xbox Live members. Following the launch of Xbox Live in November 2002, gamers have spent over 2.3 billion hours on the network playing games online with their friends around the world. This is equal to 95 million days of gaming or over 260,000 years. With our top title Halo® 2 being played on both the Xbox and Xbox 360, gamers have spent over 710 million hours playing online with over a half a billion games played. In fact, online gaming through Xbox Live is now a proven form of mainstream entertainment. The 18-34 male audience is comparable in size to the same audience tuning in to see the most popular network TV shows like "CSI" or "The Office." Xbox Live on Xbox 360 continues to grow as a social community—we are seeing an average of over 2,000,000 text and voice messages sent every day between members on the service. The average Gold subscriber has 22 friends on their friends list. To date, Xbox 360 owners have unlocked nearly 300 million achievements, for a total combined gamerscore of nearly 7.5 billion.

These are the top worldwide Xbox Live titles on Xbox 360 to date (based on the number of unique users): Halo® 2 Gears of War Hexic® HD Call of Duty® 2 Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter™ Call of Duty® 3 The Elder Scrolls® IV: Oblivion™ Project Gotham Racing® 3 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Vegas Perfect Dark Zero™
