Title: Ok i finally got my Xbox!!
Post by: Ethan_Hunt on December 10, 2001, 01:30:22 PM
Ok i live in the UK as most of you know, so i had to get an imported Xbox, which took awhile because i ordered with one company, but they were mucking me about, i ordered some where else, and i finally got it saturday.

I have to say i am having alot of fun, the only game i have got is HALO is it is a very very good game, has has got me wanting to go back to it, once i have finshed playing.
The harware it\'s self seems very good also, it feels sturdy a solid piece of kit, which i really like, the OS is very cool, i like it alot, and the ripping option is great too, and doesn\'t take anytime to copy a song.
So overall i am very happy with it. And just wanted to say please don\'t just right the console off even with out giving it a chance, because i think you will miss out on some great gaming, that we can ALL enjoy, so give it a fair chance guys.

p.s you all know i am not a Xbox fanboy as i have two PS2 and a GC, i just don\'t want you guys to miss out on some great games.OK:D :bounce: :D

Cool!!  I\'ve only seen a demo of Halo at Software Etc. and it looks sweet.  It looks like a huge war was going on open field.  The cool part was when you use a grenade and it goes off, the dirt flys up like real life very smooth dirt particles ever.   :D

Hey, that\'s great Ethan.

I\'ve been enjoying Halo, and decided to give Gotham a chance. (had to have an excuse to try the song ripping.) :D But I wound up liking it more than I did. More people should see the Xbox as another gaming alternative, and not a threat to their console.

I totally agree datamage i am really loving my Xbox at the moment, and the next game i am getting is Project gotham too, i really want to rip some songs(already done that, very cool indeed), and play them in the game, think i might order the game tomorrow.
Have you guys got any other Xbox games? if yes what ones, and what do you think of them?

Anyway back to Halo, see ya !

Coming from someone who doesn\'t like racers--I actually surprised myself and really liked PGR.  It\'s a competition with yourself really.  That and they dangle those new cars in front of you shamelessly.  It\'s all part of the adiction.

I only rented it (btw, playing your own tunes is great too--there\'s nothing like driving to the Tragically Hip).  I\'m kind of hoping to get it for christmas--failing that, I\'ll wait a while and get it used I think.

I\'m hoping to get an X-Box sooner then later simply for Halo and PGR.  PGR did surprise me even though I thought MSR was trash, but that song ripping stuff does rock.  Now that I hear Halo has an online alternative, I\'d love to try that out.  I\'m just wondering how the ethernet card on the X-Box handles PPPoE software for DSL...
