I happen to like my Xbox, but this is still a pretty funny article.

LOL. that is a funny article. he has some good points though. there really aren't any stand-out games for xbox other then halo. There needs to be better games for xbox. when i had my ps1, every couple months a game would come out where I had to have it. Halo and Tony Hawk 3 have been the only games on Xbox, and TH3 is available on all the other systems, so woop-di-doo

To think, that this console could have created such a NEW gameing world.
Svideo plug, Monitor plug, Enhanced audio.
They could have even made a Console around the idea of a REAL computer, that had TV Video output. And games that PLAYED off the CD, and saved games on an internal harddrive. Included a few utilities to handle the harddrive and AWAY you go. ANY game that worked on the PC, would work on the console.. GREAT idea.
But NO! they had to make a system that SUCKS.

We love our friends xBox (although it tends to freeze once in awhile)
But our favorite game is of course Halo!!
But I'll tell you what, over the past two weeks we tried Hunter: The Reckoning...and all I gotta say is that game is badd *ss!!!

Yep I heard that. But we rented Hunter: The Reckoning from Blockbuster, and got like a weeks extension cause it's a video game...so that makes it even better :)

I actually bought this game and when people come over, we have a blast! Hunter is a lot of fun.

I believe in "TRY before you buy".
At least check with friends to see how GOOOD it REALLY is.
I hate reviews that are "paid" for, or VERY biased. If I dont see Cons for a game, I wont buy it.

Im still waiting for a couple to come out.,,, EVE, and Elite 4..

Yeah man...we had the worst of trouble with the mansion boss! It's crazy. But one of my friends was able to beat him a couple of days ago so we were able to advance. Did you beat it yet?

I personally can afford it, but having the best graphics doth not maketh the best console in everyone's eyes.

For me, there needs to be a good selection of games that I care about and would want to play. Right now, it's a tie between my Super Nintendo and the PlayStation 2. Sure, both do not have the best graphics capability in the world, but I have a boat load of games for the SNES, PSone and the PS2 that I love... I can't really say the same for the GC nor the XBOX, though I do have the GC for the key games (Zelda, Metroid Prime, Game Boy Player, Mario Kart, SC2 w/ Link).

But that's just my opinion.

We didnt post the article about this..so i'm a little confused. I do like the xbox. Most of the time it's hooked up to play instead of my other consoles. I personally was just saying I wish there were more "great" gotta have games for it.

I decided to stroll down the xbox game isle at best buy yesterday. I have a ps2 and xbox, and I walked out with a ps2 game for myself, and 2 for cassie. Damn females.

But the point is, other than the initial xbox exclusive titles, I saw maybe 2-3 titles not available on the ps2, and dozens on the ps2 not available on the xbox.

btw-the new castlevania ps2 game is pretty funky. Rent it before you buy it, since the control is slightly odd and may not be for everyone.

I have an Xbox and a Gamecube and I am sort of dissapointed. I was hoping they would make some good RPG games, but neither console have any good ones. I should have kept my Xbox. :(

FF7 and Chrono Trigger, the 2 greatest games are not known for their graphics, nor will any great game be known for its graphics because the standard is always changing.
mistake #1

The controller makes me wonder if american design could be any worse. Did they have SUV's in-mind?
mistake #2

oh ya did i mention i hate it?
