oldgamerz:
I never even heard of the video game called Blinx until today. and the reason why I asking this question is because I would like to know more about this. Since

I was just looking through the Original Xbox database on this site. And I came across a fury game character called Blinx a cat like creature and according to this. This character is inside a couple of games made by Microsoft Game Studios. And to top things off Blinx apparently stars inside a platformer game just like the rest of the mascots for other companies

I doubt anyone remembers Blinx, hell probably not even Microsoft at this point. The closest the XBOX has to a mascot is Master Chief, who seems more appropriate for the XBOX brand than a fury video game character.
vivigamer:
Fully agreed on Halo's Master Chief being Xbox's Mascot & representing the consoles style.
Both Blinx games are backward Compatible on the Xbox 360 - I think only the 1st game is on Xbox One though. So the series is still accessible.. it's why I got them :P
sworddude:
From what I've read online apparently there where plans to make blinx microsoft's mascot for the kids department so like mario crash bandicoot etc.

so master chief for the adults and blinx for the kids

Microsoft almost did so but it never went through only master chief.

Considering that sure I'd consider blinx a microsoft mascot than

If not for that maybe voodoo vince since that game was actually pretty interesting.
weirdfeline:
It was an attempt at a mascot. I believe they dropped the trademark a few years ago.

I remember Blinx because he frequently popped up while watching Nick GaS: https://youtu.be/VRb1OOuoTTg
