Are you keeing your xbox?

Yup, I have never sold a console - every one is on my office shelf from the NES up.

Lost my 2600 to my brother and sister years ago. =(
 
Yep and I'm gonna mod it cause I have to replace my crappy Thompson drive, might as well go the whole 9 yards and put a huge HD and emu's on there as well.
 
I keep all the consoles I buy nowdays. There's that phaze where you owned them for their enjoyment,then it goes to that next phaze,where you collect it as its a piece of hobby history. :)

Keeping Xbox? Yes


XBMC and emulators for the win.


p.s. backwards compatability lol

Quoted for truth and justice!
Also, the money I would get for my Xbox nowadays probably wouldn't be worth selling it for anyway.
 
What is the resale value on a brand new Xbox? $150? Are Xboxen going to be scarce in the coming months? I haven't been keeping up with what Microsoft has said regarding production of the original Xbox post-360 launch. I don't mind holding onto it in it's unopened condition if there's any chance that I can charge more for it in the future.

If so why?


I have an offer of 150 for my xbox that is modded, should I do it
Uhh, of course.

A lot of great XBOX games do not work on 360 right now. I can't afford to ditch it...

I wouldn't anyways. I will never get rid of any consoles again. I regret doing so when I was younger...
 
Why would I get rid of it?

No 360 for me. 360 BC is a misnomer. It's Backwards Patchable.

The Core/Premium pack fiasco switched me in to cheap gamer mode. It's a good thing too. I can get way more games for my money.

I'll probably get a 360 when PS3 hits, then wait a year on the PS3. Fuck initial launch purchases. I always regret it later on down the line because I had to wait for the few games I really wanted to play to hit the streets.

I don't want to spend premium price on these machines dammit, and I would rather wait for them to work some of the kinks out of the system if there are any.
 
Even if I were getting a 360 Tuesday, I'd be hanging onto my original Xbox because only one of my games is backward compatible; the other six or seven aren't.
 
out the window as soon as X360 lands. Mmight bust out GC when Zelda arrives. But for now, everything is going out!

(which is why i need to finish SotC and Fable before tuesday!)
 
Still need a modded 'box myself.

Hopefully once 360 hits, there'll be a huge flock of 'em so the price drops.


Mmmm....30 dollar Xboxen...
 
I get rid of everything. Every generation. BC is enough for me, but I don't have enough time to play new games, never mind old ones.

Anyone want to buy a Silver Xbox?
