The 25 Dumbest Moments in Gaming

Gudlyf writes "GameSpy has a multi-part series this week titled The 25 Dumbest Moments in Gaming, highlighting some of the biggest debacles ever to plague our beloved pastime. While only the first part of the series is present, I can already think of a few that the list wouldn't be complete without. Anyone care to offer their own picks?" Predictions for the Top 5 also welcome, we'll run another story at the end of the week to see how people did.

    Please, elaborite on why the XBox is one of the 25 biggest mistakes ever in gaming? I have an xbox and happen to love it. It's a great do-everything entertainment unit once it's been modded. Being able to stream media off my PC and in to my living room with zero hassle is fantastic. Near perfect emulator support is also great. I'd contemplated building a small PC to do all of this, but the xbox does it for about half the price.

    Plus it plays xbox games.

    So tell me again, why is it such a huge mistake? Oh, it's made by Microsoft, and you hate everything Microsoft?

    Stupid.
