XBOX
The x-box was originally named "Direct X-box" as it was initially decided to show how Microsoft Direct X graphics technology could benefit the console market.
GRANT THEFT AUTO
Grant Theft Auto (GTA) only exists because of a glitch in another game.
In 1995, Rockstar was working on a game titled "Race'n Chase".
The game was very similar to what would later become GTA, however it became focused only on car chases, as police tried to catch criminals but a bug in the game caused all police cars to try and run you off the road rather than actually catch and bust you.
This became popular among gamers and testers and the model of the game was reworked to better suit this dynamic and GTA was born.

Best Gaming Console
The best selling gaming console of all time is the "PlayStation 2" with over 155 million units sold worldwide.
The best selling handheld device is the Nintendo DS with over 150 million units sold worldwide.
The worst selling console was the Apple Pippin which sold about 43,000 units during its 2 year period. The reason maybe because it has a price tag of $599 and and competing consoles were much cheaper as well as better in performance.

GTA V
At roughly 270 million dollars, GTA 5 currently has the largest budget that any game in history. It was actually so expensive to make that only one movie so far has had a bigger budget.
GAMERS
Even though 12 years old screaming little boy seemed to be minority of gamer. It is surprisingly far from the truth. About 32% are below 18 years old that means 68% of all gamers are 18 years or older and the average age of gamers is actually 30 years old.
But the most surprising fact is that roughly 48% of all gamers are female.
