Xbox 20th Anniversary – Happy birthday Xbox!

#Xbox #20th #anniversary

Not a blue screen of death but a blue screen of life on my JVC CRT when it is about the receive the boot-screen of my original Xbox that is having it’s 20th anniversary today.

The system holds a place dear to my heart. And I’ve been playing on Xbox systems ever since. I own various original models, various Xbox360 models as well as a Series S in the living room and a Series X in my game room. ‘The Duke’ was the way to start playing games with a controller properly for me. I am huge towering over 6 feet tall and I needed a substantial controller that felt comfortable to use.
I have always been gaming on other systems too and the Sony Playstation controllers always felt too small for my large paws – they stuck with the design pretty much throughout 3 Playstation generations. It finally improved somewhat with the slightly longer prongs / handles on the PS4 controller but they seemed to have nailed it with the PS5 controller. I find the XboxOne and PS5 controllers each very comfortable and precise. Although I must say the smaller Xbox Original S controller and the later Xbox360 controllers work fine for me too. Gaming has come a long way!

Happy birthday Xbox!
