HickMan I have an XBOX. Really good system now with fable, Brute force, Halo 2, Perfect Dark 2, and Conker's bad fur day 2 comming out.

I really liked halo but it really is over rated. The story really sucked.
The best part was the multi-player.

EatTheChildren I got an Xbox and a Gamecube for Christmas. Since then I've used my Xbox maybe 4 hours and my GC for about 200. There are barely any games I want, and whevener one comes out there is one for PS2 or GC I want more. I suggest waiting until Xbox has a lot more games and is a lot cheaper. It isn't worth it yet.

UnDeath I wants me an xbox, so I can kick ass at CVS SE, and Fable may kick ass once its out...

BlueOatmeal The big xbox controllers will take a little bit to get use to, even more so if you have little girly hands like mine. When I got my X-Box I played Amped like all day long and ended up with a very horrid pain staring from my wrist all the way to the bend of the arm.

Godammit that hurt but it didnt dtop me from enjoying my New X-Box and wacking off every night before bed time. Although the "session" was broken into many little parts.

JeefGyle Right now Funcoland is selling used Xbox's for $150 with one controller, and no game. There is no way that a new JSRF bundle is $150...

Plus, I'm getting this kids Xbox for $125 instead of $150 now

Anonymous Box was $150 around Christmas. Don't see why it'd be more now.. :/

I don't think the big controller is that bad. It's probably because I'm used to it though. I love the small one, but I get ruined in Halo when I use it.
The guy I played with at Katsucon said the same thing. :/

JeefGyle XBox is $200 with JSRF and Sega GT, I dont want JSRF cuz I hate it, Sega GT looks good, but if it sucks, I won't get shit for it or JSRF on a trade in cuz so many people have them due to the bundle...

Hitman 2 is a good game, and still $50 if I remember correctly...

I can play Two Towers once through, and if I dont want it, trade it in for more than I'd get for JSRF or Sega GT...

It's 6 mos old, most likely you guys have had ur Xboxs for longer than 6 mos...

I hate JAP controllers!!!

whoreable I kinda want an x-box and get a mod chip and put a new dvd drive so i can play copies...but I dont think I would play it enough :/

But I do like how you can use alot of regular pc parts like hard drives and dvd drives in the x-box.

soundtest I don't think the big controller is that bad. It's probably because I'm used to it though. I love the small one, but I get ruined in Halo when I use it.

And yes... get a new one. If the drive gets fucked - like Chojin mentioned - it's not going to be under warranty.

Edit: At least that's how it is here (Ontario) at EB. My friend purchased one of the older models that was prone to fucking, and after 3 months MS wouldn't service it for free. :/

Edit 2: I like my edits in italics.

The Unseen Im only getting an xbox for online play, dvds and custom soundtrack. None of the games truly amaze me, capcom vs eox will be tight online though

Zomboid Even if it's only 6 months old, you'd be better possibly spending a big more on a new one and a game better than the two towers. The two towers sucks ass to own if you're someone who plays their games more than a few times.

Rongi I only bought my xbox for Capcom Vs SNK 2 EO
Apr 6th, 2003 03:13 PM
Anonymous The smaller controllers are so much better.

I still don't get why you'd want to buy anything used for equal price to retail. Fuck, I'll sell you my box for $150.

JeefGyle he has had his xbox for about 6 mos. so I dont think the laser is a problem, I dont want JSRF, and the Jap controllers suck!

I will buy Halo for it definitely, right now that's the main reason to own an XBOX... DUH!
Apr 6th, 2003 02:34 PM
Anonymous You could get a new XBox with a better controller and JSRF for $150. Don't get it from the kid.

Old XBoxes had a problem with their lasers wearing down.
Apr 6th, 2003 01:25 PM
Esuohlim At least get Halo. No XBox gamer is complete without a copy of Halo.

I am buying an XBOX with 1 controller(original size), Hitman 2, and Two Towers from a kid I know for $150. What do you think?
