Anyone who purchases a x box is short sighted.

ahem

I would usually ignore this, but I\'m bored.

Please explain why I am short sighted for owning an Xbox...

You bought the x box that is why. Did you even check to see if it had any exclusive games besides one?

*well at least any good exclusive games

"Good" is all in personal taste...

I saw Halo, Munch, Project Gotham, DOA3, Jet Set Radio Future, and then seeing all the 3rd parties developing games. Yes I did my homework...9 games later I\'m satisfied and looking toward games like Shenmue II, Crash, Panzer Dragoon, Sega GT 2002, Brute Force, Halo 2, Unreal Championship, Vexx, Malice, Duality, Strident...I know Vexx and Malice are multiplatform but I like knowing I can get the "shinier" version...

I actually have the choice...I own a PS2 and Xbox.

« **Reply #21 on:** May 20, 2002, 03:37:28 PM »

yeah, i bought the xbox just to play oddworld

« **Reply #22 on:** May 20, 2002, 03:41:01 PM »

That\'s oddworld dedication!!

Munch, Halo, and JSRF are my favorites so far...although I haven\'t played them or the Xbox for that matter in probably about 2 months. And my friend has my PS2 with FFX and FFIX...he despises FFX:)

I was just wondering... How does one come up with 180 posts in a little over a week? A lot of info, or just a bunch of spam?

Anyhoo about the M$ online strategy... I dunno.. Personally it\'s a possibility which M$ has left, yet I have this really bad feeling of where M$ is headed right now as with the entire xbox console/online gaming thing.

Personally, I believe that too much of a marketing push makes the system less viable. Like any bad movie that has way too many commercials, I kind of think M$ is spending way too much time and money trying to push the console. I mean, I know its probably not a bad thing, and its probably the only thing that they could really do... but then again, I keep thinking back to the days when the original playstation first came out. I don\'t remember Sony making a humongous push for the console, or going all out crazy with their marketing plots. I think that they were rather respective on the marketing side, and let the console do its own talking. Everyone (the masses of people) were crazy about their SNES and Genesis, yet after a few years, the Playstation became a hit with everyone. M$ is in the same situation as was Sony back then (somewhat).
