Last night I was sitting around being bored and up and left to Target and purchased an Xbox. I got Halo and have been playing it ever since. Sweet game that I suck at horribly. So if anyone wants to buy me Halo 2 next week just pm me and I will give you my address.

You'll have to be buying RallyChallenge also, its one of the XboxPlatinum or whatever they are so they're only like $20 and it is one of the funner(yes i know not a word) car games i've played. Project Gotham is fun too. :D

I was gonna get Ghost Recon and Counter Strike because those are both platinum hits that Ive heard good things about. I wanted Madden but it wasn't on sale anymore.

Project Gotham Racing 2 is a hoot as is Colin Mcrae 2005. Fable was fun for a while too. StarWars: KOTR & Prince of Persia are highly rated also.

One of the few role playing games I like, otherwise for me its all racing games.


I mean who can beat classic roll games like Wolfenstein and Doom. :p Plus it can't help that my 11yo brother has Gamecube, Xbox, Ps1, NES, and atleast a dozen or two games for each. :D

congrats on the purchase, but save yourself some serious dough and get a mod chip. my best friend has an xbox with the chip, a 100gb (?) hard drive, and 150+ games on the system. plus, he can play dvd's without the stuipd plug-in and remote. werd.

Halo consumed a month of my life. I'm scared to think of what would happen with Halo 2. Pale skin, red eyes and soar thumbs (from pushing the buttons, not what you were thinking).

Haha. If you would get an Xbox with the mod chip you could rent it again and just copy it to the hard drive.

damn right,that game rocked, but its pretty short.
if theres one game you must buy if your into racing games is definitly rallisport challenge 2, also if your up for a challenge richard burns rally is a great rally sim.
if your into RPG's then check out elder scrolls 3 morrowind simply massive game.

halo 2 is defnitly on my must buy list when it comes out, i still play the first one with my mates, brilliant multiplayer game.

We have X-Bos and PS2... haven't touched either in months but I love Project Gotham when I get the time... The only racing game worth owning, IMO.

Dude, Metal (sanjay) and BMXman (Donnie) became addicted to Darryl's (derek's) Star Wars XBox game on our recent Utah trip. Off the trails, on to the XBox until 2-3 AM, and then a hell of a time getting them out on the trails in the morning. Bwwweeeewwww, bwwwweeewww, bwwwwweeeeeww all night coming from the living room. It was hellacious.

The only Star Wars game I have played is Battlefront and it kicks major ass. The Bwwweeeeewwww sound is right on. Bill Gates makes one great gaming console.

i seriously recommend Halo 2, MEchassault, Rainbow Six 3, Star Wars:Battlefront.
XBOX live is the best thing since sliced bread. Nothing like cooperative play and talking some trash online
i agree, we should play some mechassault! Fraser82 - add me fool!

There's a lot of guys at the place I work who are all into Socom on PS2, they've got their clan I guess and stay up late shooting at each other. I just got a PS2 and since we're dropping our cel phone I might be able to talk my wife into DSL so I can play with them. For now it's Downhill Domination. I suck, but that makes it that much more exciting every time I win a race.
