It was released on November 15, 2001 in North America, February 22, 2002 in Japan, and March 14, 2002 in Europe and Australia. It is the predecessor to Microsoft's Xbox 360 console. It was discontinued in late 2006. However, discontinuation seems to only have been put in effect for the shipments of the console and not its games as the Madden football series and other games are still releasing on the Xbox console....

"Owned from 2005 - 2007
First Game: Halo Triple Pack
I got it for Christmas in 2005. I got the original Xbox a bit late since I was more into playing the PS2 and Gamecube at the time. "
"Ahh, the infamous 16-man Halo LANs! I must have been to at least a dozen of them, and they were a hoot every time. Add in a few memorable cross-console releases, and we are left with a solid (and notoriously bulky) rig."

"12 - The Worst Console
Big, bulky, ugly, and while it's only perk was slightly (and I use that term relatively) better graphics than the year older Ps2, it didn't have anything going for it. Halo? Psh, play a real shooter like Timesplitters or Unreal Tournament. Not to mention the thing clocked in at 8.5lbs. "But SK, isn't the Ps3 11-some pounds?" Supposedly it does weigh more, but it's all glossy and shiny, it's power adapter is built into it so you don't have to bother with hiding it behind "

"And this last one is just retarded. It got banned for the crude humor of a flying babe pushed out of the womb, and has many naked scenes, but of the male variety. Moronic commercial Grade A.
