Let's take a moment to talk about the original Xbox.

How many of those 250 are beat?

Probably about 5% maybe? I don't know. Who the hell plays video games the point is to catch 'em all.

any of the Need For Speed games worth checking out?

The best two to get are Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Need for Speed Carbon.

Maybe there's some other good racers though.

Get yourself:

Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition
TOCA Race Driver 3
Colin McRae Rally 2005
RalliSport Challenge 2
R: Racing Revolution

And you'll be set for a long time. There's plenty of other great racers on the OG Xbox, but those were the most impressive I've tried.

Definitely have any easy 20-30 some games I want to get now though for sure.

I still have my Xbox though I haven't played it in a long time. My favorite games are Psychonauts, the two OddWorld games, Capcom collection 1 & 2, Halo 1/2, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, and of course the Sega exclusives. I would have loved MvC 2 but I was never able to find it for a decent price. It's a great system with some great games.

I used to love the Xbox. I had so many good titles for it. But like I said in my other post the Xbox and games gave me an additional money for the purchase of my house.
I do know one thing, the 2d fighters library is fantastic on the system

[Xeogred]

Were there any good shmups on the system?
Any good Japanese developed titles? (outside of From Software or Tecmo, unless there's some obscure stuff from them)

[Exhuminator]

Were there any good shmups on the system?

The only decent ones I can think of are:

Shikigami no Shiro
Shikigami no Shiro II
Psyvariar 2: Extend Edition
Xyanide

Any good Japanese developed titles? (outside of From Software or Tecmo, unless there's some obscure stuff from them)

Well I think these are interesting:

C.A.T.: Cyber Attack Team
Daemon Vector
Dennou Taisen DroneZ
Guilty Gear Isuka
N.U.D.E.@ Natural Ultimate Digital Experiment
Rent-A-Hero No. 1
Shin Megami Tensei: NINE
The King of Fighters 2003
Tenerezza
Thousand Land

My secret hidden import gem for Xbox that nobody knows about:

Xyanide

This game has an amazing name and an amazing opening, but, honestly, it isn't that much fun...

When there's so little competition in the genre on its own platform though, that kinda automatically makes it a decent one for Xbox.

True. I think that, if you insist on playing shmups on your Xbox, however, you are better of sticking with the Capcom and Taito compilations...

100% agreed.

It's not an exclusive, but the Xbox version of Fatal Frame far superior to the PS2 original in my opinion. I've played through both, and the Xbox port looked crisper (makes sense given the hardware superiority, though I played both versions through component cables) and controlled better. I haven't started Fatal Frame II yet (though I'm playing through the Wii remake of that first), but I imagine it will be a similar story.
