Time for ULTRA GEEK POST::
Reading some of the comments on here since my last post..i have an addon..and here we go::
First off...DVD playing on xbox is 20 bucks..and thats so you can have a remote control. Most people dont bother using their gameing console as a DVD player anyway...
Second...I for one..LOVE..and still play...my dreamcast (i own 20...i use the parts to repair my Naiomi based arcade machines..which run off the same hardware found in the dreamcast)..so thats my standpoing on that
Third...X-box live is AMAZING. MOST xbox games are live enabled, meaning you can go online and duke it out with people all over the world..DEFINATALY adds to the longevity of games.
Fourth...the new Grand Theft Auto will only be a PS/2 exclusive for a whole 6 months. After that..PC and Xbox will get their superior versions (the version you are getting on PS/2 is graphically toned down so the system can actually run it). The Xbox versions of the other 2 Grand Theft Autos are SOOOOOO much better.
Fifth...and this is an anti xbox post...if you like RPGs (role playing games..like..final fantasy)...well...then thats where xbox lacks...BIG. Very few good ones are made for the system (well..that is..until Fable comes out later this year :fork: )
Sixth..and most geeky of the argument. Xbox supports HDTV! Yes..i know it doesnt SEEM like a cool feature..but if you SAW the difference, youd understand why. Its a MILLION times crisper and really helps pull you into the game. (It also supports wide screen HDTV in case you were wondering)
Also..some minor key facts. Keep in mind that although the Xbox has 4 controller ports in the front, you can actually link up to as many as 4 xboxes at once..making a total of 16 player action...REALLY fun in Halo.
Some of the upcoming titles of this year that are xbox treats::
Doom 3
Halflife 2
Halo 2
Fable
Rally Sport Challenge 4
Silent Hill 4 (i know..not an Exclusive..but it looks a ton better on xbox)
Dead or Alive: Ultimate (i think thats what they are calling it now)
Starcraft: Ghosts
Titles that are out now that you want
Ninja Gaiden
Splinter Cell: Pandora Tommorow
Prince Of Persia: The Sands of Time
Grand Theft Auto: Double Pack (2 games for the price of 1)
Halo (its basically one of those "NEED TO OWN" games)
Project Gotham Racing 2
Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance
Soul Calliber 2
Dead or Alive 3
Thats a good start...i think
