🎮 Xbox History — Four Generations of Microsoft Gaming

The original Xbox (2001) was Microsoft's entry into the home console market, launched to compete with the PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube. Its most significant launch title was Halo: Combat Evolved, which demonstrated that console FPS gaming could match PC FPS gaming in quality and control. Xbox Live (2002) was the first successful online console gaming network, establishing the model that PlayStation Network would later replicate. The Xbox became a genuinely significant gaming platform primarily because of Halo and the first-person shooter genre.

The Xbox 360 (2005–2013) was Microsoft's most commercially successful console: it launched one year before the PlayStation 3, establishing a head start that gave it the dominant early market position. The Xbox 360's library included Halo 3, Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Fable II, Fable III, Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, Left 4 Dead, Bioshock, Portal and Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The Xbox 360 era is the most represented in the 98types Xbox gaming poster collection.

Halo — The Xbox Franchise

Halo 2 (2004) introduced Xbox Live multiplayer to the Halo franchise and became the defining online console gaming experience of its era — the game that British players came home from school to play, that established clans, that generated strategies discussed in playgrounds. The dual-wielding mechanic, the Arbiter campaign and the cliffhanger ending made it the most-discussed Xbox game of the year. Halo 3 (2007) received 94/100 on Metacritic and sold 3.3 million copies in its first week in the United States alone. The Halo 3 marketing campaign — the Museum trailer, the Believe campaign — is one of gaming's most celebrated marketing achievements.

The Halo franchise covers six numbered mainline entries, Halo Wars (real-time strategy), Halo 5: Guardians (2015) and Halo Infinite (2021). The three confirmed 98types Halo products — Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo: Master Chief Collection era — represent the franchise's creative peak. Both Halo 2 and Halo 3 are individual confirmed products at 98types from £3.

Gears of War & Fable — Xbox 360 Exclusives

Gears of War (2006) received 94/100 on Metacritic and sold over 6 million copies in its first six months, making it the fastest-selling Xbox 360 game at the time. The Active Reload mechanic, the Lancer chainsaw bayonet and the cover system it established influenced virtually every subsequent third-person action game. Fable II (2008) received 89/100 on Metacritic and was Lionhead Studios' finest achievement: a British-flavoured fantasy RPG with a moral choice system, a dog companion, co-operative play and the specific dark-comic tone that Peter Molyneux's studio brought to the Xbox platform.

Mass Effect & KOTOR — Xbox RPG Legacy

Mass Effect (2007) was originally released as an Xbox 360 exclusive before coming to PC in 2008 and PS3 in 2012. The Xbox 360 version was the launch version: Commander Shepard, the Normandy, the Reapers — all first experienced on Xbox hardware. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003) was an original Xbox exclusive before its PC port: BioWare's Revan and the companion-based Old Republic narrative that remains one of the finest Star Wars stories ever told.
