I didn't choose this late, I chose it a long time ago. I still don't see any compelling reason to buy an Xbox to this very day though. I don't care to play console games online (I have my PC for that) so what would I use it for? I SAID PURPLE, BITCH!
|
|
I don't really see a reason to buy an XBox when there are still good games for the systems I own to play. I didn't buy a PS2 till I ran out of GC games. I don't have enough shelf space or A/V ports for three consoles. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

To play awesome console games like Crimson Skies on LAN. Also, to play the best available versions of the GTA3 games and other multiplatform games like Burnout. Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

What LAN? Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

Yeah, what's a LAN? Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

The Xbox LAN you put together to play awesome console games like Crimson Skies on LAN. Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

With all my friends who don't own XBoxes? Hell, I've never even had enough people over for a four player game on GC. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

Shadarr's reason is the same as mine. I don't have enough shelf space or A/V ports for three consoles. It is a space issue. And I don't have enough time to explore the libraries of both consoles. Funk. I lie awake

#72 Your Friend The Xbox LAN you put together to play awesome console games like Crimson Skies on LAN. Considering that none of my other friends own game consoles, this will prove to be difficult.

You have a rich wife, just buy 4 Xboxes and 4 TVs and a network hub. Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,

You have a rich wife, just buy 4 Xboxes and 4 TVs and a network hub. Throw in 4 copies of Forza, and you can play the game the way it's meant to! |

I was in a similar situation previously except I didn't actually own the PS2, my roommate did, so I got to play most of the games I cared about on it before I moved out. I ended up getting the xbox for a few reasons: 1) My brother was getting a gamecube. 2a) Mod chip ability. Just in general there's more things to tinker with on a xbox. 2b) As a result, it's the best emulator platform. 3) Multiplatform games seem to end up on the xbox, eventually. There seems to be more PS2/Xbox only games then PS2/Gamecube games, especially sports games, and they tended to come out looking better on the xbox. That said, the gamecube exclusives are miles better, and if I didn't have the opportunity to play them elsewhere I'd think long and hard about the Gamecube instead. |

Shadarr Yeah, classic stuff. Yell at your customers - good choice! |

I emplore everyone to use their site to search for legos. I just did. こんにちは
|
|
Haha, done. |
|
My favourite part is "By doing so, you will be helping to protect and preserve a brand...." Because protecting a brand is one of the things I care deeply about. Of course, right now at work I'm going through tests to make sure that everywhere it used to say "PureEdge Viewer" or something similar, it now says exactly "IBM® Workplace Forms™ Viewer". So maybe I'm just a little bitter. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

A racing game? When hell freezes over. I was actually referring to the hidden feature in Forza where you could link multiple xboxes and multiple tvs to create on wraparound image. |

Yes, because racing high-performance European cars is the epitomy of redneckness. |

#92 Squeaky Yes, because racing high-performance European cars is the epitomy of redneckness. Racing in and of itself is the pinnacle of exciting.

Ergo, I have to admit you're being a little obtuse. Most racing games AREN'T Nascar turn fests. |
|
They do all have shitty, shitty rubberband AI though. Run a totally flawless race for five laps, then graze a barrier on the final turn and you finish in fifth place. I just love that! Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

#96 Penguinx Ergo, I have to admit you're being a little obtuse. Most racing games AREN'T Nascar turn fests. See what Shaddar said. I find racing games to be insufferably awful. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

That's my wife's biggest gripe with Mario Kart. As a mostly non-gamer she didn't know that was the defacto AI for racers. |
|
I'm not huge into racers either, but to say all there is to do is go around in a circle seemed a bit unfair to the genre. |

#100 Penguinx I'm not huge into racers either, but to say all there is to do is go around in a circle seemed a bit unfair to the genre. Maybe so, but that's how I see them. I may give Burnout 3 a try, though. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

I didn't notice it as much in MarioKart, but when I was playing WaveRace a couple months ago it really pissed me off. Turbo boosts were basically only worth using if I was behind. Once I was in first, I was better off saving them in case I fell behind, because the second-place racer would always be about a second behind me regardless. It's frustrating to the point of never playing again to finish with a better time, by like five seconds, and a worse position. If the final lap is the only one that matters, then the race should only be one lap long. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

WaveRace is noterious for this, but in the latest version, if you race a flawless race, you can stay ahead the whole time. Damn my broken GC! I want to play WaveRace again!

Wrong. If you wanted to "cheat" in Gran Turismo and race a LeMans car against Honda Civics you could do that and finish laps ahead of second place. |
|
And why would I want to do this? Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

BurnOut3 does that a lot. Run a perfect lap and graze a rail ... hey, you're in last place! Enjoy! Still a fun game though... |
|
At the higher level Burnout 3 would cheat worse too, but yea, good fun. |
|
Well, I wouldn't be playing Burnout 3 for the boring races. Give me gratuitous destruction any day. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

WaveRace is noterious for this, but in the latest version, if you race a flawless race, you can stay ahead the whole time. Of course. The issue is that if you race a nearly flawless race, where you finish is determined by when you screw up. Screw up at the beginning and you're fine, screw up at the end and you're fuxxored. Damn my broken GC! I want to play WaveRace again! Yes, damn the GC for costing $7 to replace. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

Yes, damn the GC for costing $7 to replace. Sweet, you're going to sell me your GC for $7...? Done! "Of course, libertarians are a special breed because they can't explain their beliefs to anyone, even each other, without sounding like batshit crazy lunatics." - Shadarr

Well, I wouldn't be playing Burnout 3 for the boring races. Give me gratuitous destruction any day. Well, I had lofty dreams of finishing the world circuit section of the game. That dream was crushed handily by the bullshit cheating racing AI. |

You can get a brand new GameCube out of a box of Cheerios. Without me, Internet would never have had sex with the DS. -m0nty

Racing is good. Rally doubly so. |
|
Rally is the only racing I dig in real life and games. |

Rubberband AI in racers works the other way too, though. It might seem unfair but it is really the only way to go because games with no compensation in them are extremely boring -- you either blow out the CPU drivers or you have no chance once they get ahead of you, depending upon how tweaked they are to mess up on purpose sometimes. The good ones handle the rubberbanding in a smart enough way that they aren't too obvious, annoying and "unfair". Burnout 3 actually does a really good job of it, IMO. The later, hard races *should* be hard. Whiners. Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
