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.

If you ask me, there are very few worthy ones. There are four that I see as excellent. When paired with how pathetically easy the Xbox is to mod, and it's emulator capabilities, it suddenly becomes a pretty cool console to have sitting around.

Otogi 1+2, Metal Wolf Chaos, Phantom Dust, Panzer Dragoon Orta.

There are also a lot of "semi-exclusive" games (available one way or another in other regions).

Not to mention the utterly superior Ninja Gaiden Sigma for PS3.

MOST of the games you mentioned I have no interest in really. But:

-Buffy the Vampire Slayer - well that's cool, but Chaos Bleeds is on PS2/GCN, so no big deal if I need a Buffy fix.

-Ninja Gaiden - looks good(ish), but I've never played a 3D Ninja Gaiden, and it seems like there's a lot of other ones I could try if I wanted to. Right?

-Panzer Dragoon: Orta - not an exclusive. Was released on PS2 in Japan.

Saying their available on 360 is like saying NES titles are available on Wii. That's not really fair.

And yeah, they are available on PC. But I though we were talking about consoles. If that's the case there are tons of titles available on PC on all kinds of systems, and XBox is completely out of the runnings because like 3/4 of it's library is available on PC, it's made by Microsoft, lol.

...in Japan. Not really readily available to play then unless you want to buy a Japanese PS2 or mod your own.

oh nevermind> I misunderstood. HG101 said it was an UNLOCKABLE in Orta. But in my head I thought they were ports of the same game. Sorry.
