[jedimike]

When did you get your Xbox?

Nov. 15th 2001. I had actually been out of the console loop for quite a while. I did own a N64, but got discouraged with it when the games stopped flowing.

Bought a 2nd LE Halo Xbox later and modded it. BTW, both units have worked flawlessly.

Your Favourite Games?

I think I have weird taste, but I love the pseudo racing games. Wreckless, Midtown Madness 3, and Burnout 3 have been some of my best experiences. I was primarily a PC gamer before Xbox, so while I enjoy the abundance of FPS's on Xbox, they kind of have a been there done that feeling to them.

Other games I've latched onto are the RPG's. KOTOR, Fable, Morrowind, and soon Bard's Tale.

Game Your Most Looking Forward to?

Bard's Tale
Area 51
Destroy All Humans
Doom III
Halo 2
Psychonauts
Conker
Splinter Cell 3

 

[RiZ III]

Got it for 120 with extra controller back when it was 300 dollars from a friend.

Panzer Dragoon Orta was the only reason. Still my fav game on the system.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Splinter Cell

HALO

 

[Cosmic Bus]

When did you get your Xbox?

Just yesterday, actually.

Your Favourite Games?

Well, even though I don't own it, Halo has to be the big one. It kept me occupied on a friend's Xbox for months. I've got MGS: Substance and the Sega GT/Jet Set Radio disc right now, all of which are fun. MGS is crazy-difficult for someone who really hasn't been gaming for a few years. JSRF doesn't seem as good as the original, but is still pretty cool, and Sega GT is... Honestly, I havne't played more than ten minutes of it so far.

Game Your Most Looking Forward to?

Halo 2. It's my sole reason for buying the system -- although the same tactics didn't work out when I got a PS2 for GTA3 and ended up hating it. Anyway, beyond Halo, I don't have any idea what's coming out (or good stuff that's currently available, for that matter).

 

[Solid]

When did you get your Xbox?

Summer 2003.

April 2002 I believe. Morrowind was my first game, but the reason I got the Xbox was World Series Baseball which came out that May.

Your Favourite Games?
Kotor, Fable, Splinter Cell, ESPN MLB/NFL and Morrowind.

Game Your Most Looking Forward to?
Kotor 2. I'm actually surprised that it's the only one I care for so far. Edit: forgot about SF Anniversary collection. I want that too.

 

[Pachinko]

When did you get your Xbox?
Aproximatly 3 weeks after it launched(in the US), I got Dead or Alive 3 and Halo plus a second controller. My friend and I proceeded to play Co-op halo for 7 hours straight.

Your Favourite Games? Ninja Gaiden is up there as one of my all time favorite games period, but I also enjoyed DOA3, Halo and rallisport Challenge 2.
Game Your Most Looking Forward to? I plan to buy DOA ultimate collection and Halo 2 for the remainder of this year. I'm pretty sure I'll be good for games until Conker comes out next spring.

 

[XboxGamers]

Got my Xbox on Dec. 2001 after I've seen DOA 3 in actions at GameStop.

My favourite games is Enclave, Morrowind GOTY, Star Wars Battlefront, Ghost Recon IT, Halo, RSC2, Fable, PDO, ESPN NBA & NFL 2k5, Deus Ex: Invisible War, GTA: 3 & Vice City and more other ones.
