I can't remember how I stumbled on this site. It must have been by accident. Don't know why I joined the forums either as I usually don't like to join sites and give out email and all that stuff. Maybe it was the design...oh well who cares.

quote:Originally posted by UtahSaint [365]: well, it's a long story, but we decided to launch the site back in 2001, when we first heard about the X-Box - as it was then codenamed. Ourselves along with MSXBOX, were the first sites to launch, and then a whole bunch of other "me too" sites appeared - about a year later.
MSXBOX bit the dust and was given to the creators of TeamXbox, who at that time were a small, but good looking site.
Plenty of other xbox sites have come and gone, XboxActive, Funxbox (lol), Xbox360, 123Xbox and others too numerous to remember or care about - most were crappy, grabbing news and images from other sites.
With the launch of 360, I'm sure there will be hundred of other new sites... all will die when the owners realise how much work it takes to maintain and pay for a site like ours.
anyways, I could wax poetic about the launch, but suffice to say, we learnt our lesson when the Wall St Journal and MSNBC did an article about us, and made us Public Enemy #1 with Microsoft - for a while!
HaHa do you really think any one will be still here from 2001!!!
Oh wait!!!!
