Well got myself an original XBOX with Executer chip and 160gb HDD. I also got a HD component cable for it off E-bay and not it's proudly connected to my 27" TV Monitor alongside my 360 and PC.
The Original XBox is much underrated I think. I had never played any XBox games until I got my 360 and now I think I have probably played more hours on XBox original games than I have on 360 ones. I completed the first Halo but only got as far as the 4th level on Halo 3 which I found a bit boring.
What original games are you playing and what is the most impressive emulator? Can it do PS or N64?
I have really liked KOTOR2, Shenmue 2, Rogue Trooper and the Out Run game. I also thought Grabbed By The Ghoulies was good despite its terrible name. It is a bit like Atic Atac, although one bit is a bit like Knight Lore as you have to go off and get things for a Cauldron.
Playing all the Burnout games again which in my opinion are all brilliant, especially Burnout Revenge and Takedown.
Downloaded loads of emulators. Amiga emulation is spot on, and so is N64 emulation. The PSX one is a little jumpy but still runs the games. The are a lot of more obscure emus as well such Wonderswan, Lynx, Neo Geo Pocket, MSX etc and they all work really well.
Downloaded Outrun 2 and Coast to Coast, which are again brilliant and now starting to get the Star Wars games.
Star Wars Battlefront and 2 are ace! Half Life 2 is pretty sweet too. Black is highly rated but I never got into it.
Also Morrowing GOTY Edition, I wish I had played it BEFORE Oblivion :-( I just couldn't seem to forgive the graphics and controls after playing the mighty Oblivion.
It did indeed, I would pay full price (actually I would pay £100) if they just put Morrowind GOTY Edition onto the Oblivion engine. They could make millions with minimum effort.
Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic (1&2) Shenmue 2 Rogue Trooper Outrun 2 Serious Sam Half Life 2
I really like Grabbed By The Ghoulies but it seems to be universally loathed.
Also, Black is generally well liked and had an article about it on this site. I bought it on the strength of that article but really do not like it at all. I think it has all the things that annoy me about FPS video games in it.
