The Microsoft Original Xbox Console was the groundbreaking 2001 entry into the gaming world that introduced PC-level power to the living room. It was the first major American-produced console in nearly a decade and revolutionized the industry by being the first system with a built-in hard drive and an integrated Ethernet port for broadband gaming.
