TeamXbox was a gaming media web site dedicated to Microsoft's Xbox and Xbox 360 platforms. While the majority of content was Xbox and Xbox 360 related, the site occasionally covered general technology and other video game news.
TeamXbox was founded in 2000 by Brent "Shockwave" Soboleski and Steve "Bart" Barton. In 2001, Sol Najimi, of MSXbox, agreed to merge the MSXbox forums with the TeamXbox news site creating one of the largest Xbox focused fan sites. Media conglomerate IGN Entertainment, Inc. purchased TeamXbox in 2003, which in turn was purchased by News Corporation in 2005.
IGN shut down TeamXbox and their other "portal" sites on August 17, 2012. The forum is now entirely fan-driven.
Famous quotes containing the word team:
“I also heard the whooping of the ice in the pond, my great bed-fellow in that part of Concord, as if it were restless in its bed and would fain turn over, were troubled with flatulency and bad dreams; or I was waked by the cracking of the ground by the frost, as if some one had driven a team against my door, and in the morning would find a crack in the earth a quarter of a mile long and a third of an inch wide.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
