How does this pertain to Halo 2? Take your thread to the Flood and stay there.

The XBox is far from being the leader in the industry saleswise. Technology, well, it outruns the competition hands down, but sales? Nope.

Despite excellent games like Halo, the XBox has sold less units than the GameCube, and both together haven't sold half of the units the Playstation 2 has. Not to say I'm happy about this, I really don't like the PlayStation 1 or 2, or the PSP, or anything Sony related these days, but the casual 29 year old gamer wants a cheap GTA III and Vice City combo, followed up by some EA Sports. I'll take a Halo LANparty then some Wario Ware, but, well, that's the difference between a gamer and an idiot who can't remember a term other than 'playstatio? Yeah, Playstation thingie. Gimme one of those.'

GCN was released in Japan to good results. Xbox wasn't.

I don't think it would be for microsoft to make a handheld. It's sad enough that sony is making run at it, it would be even worse if microsoft failed.

I hope they don't. All the cheap little kids who can't buy Xbox can cry on their little beds.
