I've been into games since the days of Pong. I was one the first kids to get Nintendo and the first Sega. I've seen good systems and blown money on bad ones but I'm still a big gaming dork at heart, even at 34. I bought PS1 the first week, loved it. It was one of the better systems made. Blew 500 bucks on 3DO that folded in two years. I bought Dreamcast the first week also and that has to be the most underrated system in the gaming world. I bought PS2 within the first month and while I liked it I wasn't too pleased with the graphics, my Dreamcast looked better. Then the Xbox, I waited 9 months before I took the plunge, and didn't even buy Halo for another 4 or 5 months later. The graphics were great but no game selection. Once I started reading about ole Bill Gates dumping 1 billion into Xbox Live, I knew the Xbox was going places. While the PS2 has more selections and some games are great but the Xbox has the replay ability of Xbox Live. Yes, I know Sony has online play also, but it's horrible. With Sony's online service, you pay for each game played. You also are playing online with dial-uppers which results in bad connections. That's why I think Microsoft has the upper hand going into the next generation of console wars. What can you say, the gaming industry makes more $ than Hollywood! Crazy!
Anyway, here's a list of some of my favorite Xbox games.
Halo
Halo 2
Rainbow 6 series
Project Gotham 1 and 2
Burnout 3
MotoGP 1 and 2 (3 coming this summer)
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Splinter Cell.
Ghost Recon 2
I truly think this is the future of gaming and if Sony doesn't get with the program they could be steamrolled in the next few years. While the Xbox alone is good, it's Xbox Live that makes it such a wonderful experience.
Anyone on Xbox Live look me up.
