No way. The 5200 deserves that award far more than the oXbox.



My CDi is a good amount bigger than a VCR. That easily wins.

It blows, but there are some cool things that can be done with it modding wise. A small handful of really good exclusive too.


What's so bad about XBox? It had plenty of good exclusives. And it had a lot of the best versions of multiplatform games.

Depends on the model. The 220 is big like a piece of home theater equipment. The 450 is a more usual game console size. The 220 is the nicer unit in my opinion.

CD-i
It's under a massive pile of cooler shit so that means I'll probably never play it again. But hey it's a good conversation piece.

All oxboxs should be modded. With the excepetion of HD support it's a far better media center than the ps3 or 360, plus all the emulators.
