ost_uid0="leftyfb"]xbox is gaining in the games dept.. Just downloaded the japanese release of Soul Calibur II and it kicks ass. Halo os not over rated ... mostly good for multiplayer fun, as in 4 xbox's with 16 people going at it.

I will say adding a modchip to it multiplies the xbox's worth tenfold. How's 3000+ nes games 2000+ snes a dozen gameboy and 4000+ mame roms sound? Oh and 62 full xbox games loaded onto the hard drive. No discs needed.

Wow...however, that doesn't solve the problem that X-Box is too bulky for most standard ES's, that the controller is like twice the size that it SHOULD be, and that the games aren't nearly as good as PS2. Being able to fit the games onto the hard drive of the XBox is a sweet deal indeed, but it doesn't improve the playability of the games.

And Halo sucks, any way you look at it. The multiplayer ability doesn't make up for its horrible control and gameplay.
