Best Regular XBox Games & Accessories - Ginger - 05-29-2008
Paul's thread got me thinking.
I recently got a regular XBox with controllers and a few games (the Halo stuff is in there). So far I haven't found anything that used to draw me in the way Hitman 2 did, or Counterstrike (oh yeah, back in the day). I don't feel the need to have the latest and greatest, but I'd like to have some stuff I enjoy.
I got a couple steering wheels and a DVD remote from Rex, so that's covered, and I've got 4 regular corded controllers.
That said, what is everybody's favorite original xbox games and acessories? The stuff is so cheap now that I don't mind buying a few things... lets hear it.
Oh, also, what's the deal with plugging the internet into one: is it a pay service? Can I automatically join public games free? Etc. Please forgive my ignorance... I never really was a gamer.

XBox Live costs like, 5.99 a month in order to actually play games with other people.
You should look into the halflifes if you're looking for decent games to play...but I don't even know what your style is. What do you *like* to play? I thought Hitman sucked, so...
- Ginger - 05-29-2008
I tried Hitman 1 on computer and didn't enjoy it. But I enjoyed Hitman 2. Maybe I played that on PS2, though, I don't recall the console.
I've got one of the Half Lifes at home, but I never stuck it in because I figured it would play out like the computer version that I played until I was blue in the face.
I'd rather not play rpg games... but I'm pretty open, aside from that.

Call of Cthulhu
ark Corners of the Earth was hard (and creepy) as hell...I need to replay it.
- Mike - 05-29-2008
black, ninja gaidens, forza, fable, grand theft autos.
- CaptainHenreh - 05-29-2008
Ninja Gaiden is hard as FUCK also.
This PA comic is almost 100% accurate:

Ninja Gaiden's in my collection, but i haven't played it yet. I guess I'll start
I started Price of Persia the other night... any good?
- JustinG - 05-29-2008
pretty much what everyone else said, Forza, and Fable was really good. Prince of Persia, Ninja Gaiden was good but hard as hell. Halo2 if you wanna play online, surprising amount of people still play it online even with halo 3 out. Was Oblivion, XBOX or 360??? i dont remember, but pretty descent, yet very repetitive.
- Mike - 05-29-2008
oblivion is 360. unless you have college amounts of free time or are a complete loser, it sucks.
- JustinG - 05-29-2008
well i fit in both of those categories when it came out....
- CaptainHenreh - 05-29-2008
He also said he didn't want any RPG's...
- Mike - 05-29-2008
would we say fable is an rpg? it's more of an adventure... or somesing.
- Apoc - 05-29-2008
Man I miss college amounts of free time.
I can't even remember what games I have for Xbox other than the Halos.
- WRXtranceformed - 05-29-2008
Ones like Mike said, and I'd like to add:
Far Cry
DDR Ultramix 2
NFSU series
- Goodspeed - 05-29-2008
Hitman: Blood Money. The gameplay is fantastic, the score is great, and it blows Hitman 2 away. One of the most fun games I've ever played.
Also, Project Gotham Racing 2 has excellent graphics and is very fun, the Ghost Recon games are pretty good and challenging, Splinter Cell, etc. etc.
- Ginger - 05-29-2008
Oh, good calls, Goodspeed. I didn't realize any of those were regular xbox, sweet
- Maengelito - 05-29-2008
so who wants to sell me their old xbox so I can turn it into a media center/emulator for some old school NES games?

I got 3, you want one?
2 of them have bad optical drives.

Rex's Electronics EmporiumÔäó where stuff falls off the back of trucks and the savings get passed to you!
Put me down for one cable modem and one xbox, plz.
- HAULN-SS - 05-29-2008
You guys though ninja gaiden was hard? Me and my roommate in college beat that pretty quick. I think we cheated on one puzzle, if i recall correctly.
