How the Xbox Influenced Console Gaming


IGN Xbox has this great feature up called "The Xbox Effect", in which it discusses the various ways that the Xbox has influenced and re-defined various aspects of console gaming since it's release in November 2001.

Highlights include true online gaming for a console, the inclusion of a hard disk, and the rise in success of western RPGs for consoles.

The article also discusses how similar to a PC the Xbox is, and how that's helped bring more gamers (such as myself) over from the PC market.
