I really do not see why Micosoft gave up on the Xbox when the Xbox 360 came out. The Xbox was perfectly fine when the Xbox 360 came out. The graphics were and still are better than any of its rivals at the time, including the PC. The games on it, while not being as plentiful as the PS 2, were generally better than any of its rivals (Halo series, Fable, Mechassault 2, Forza, etc.)

Now can anyone tell me why the Xbox is left to rot in a corner, never to have a release again!?
