Better than what I would do with $250.
- I found Fable to be a disappointment. Thought it would be a little more expansive than what it was; too linear for my liking.
- Dead or Alive can never go wrong. Unless of course, you put them on a beach and have them play volleyball.
- I've never played Shadow the Hedgehog. Hope it's good, but don't like the whole idea of him having guns. Sort of new to the series.
- I loved Sonic Heroes. Longer gameplay than Sonic Adventures 2 and a lot harder. Spent a good 100+ hours playing the game. :D
- Never followed the Panzer Dragoon series, but from what I saw Panzer Dragoon Orta shouldn't be that bad. Good luck with that.

Well, DOA 3 was cool for a few hours, then it got old fast. Fighting games like GG are much better IMO. Panzer Dragoon Orta is a good game, but Fable was just a bunch of button mashing for me. I don't know about the rest of the games. Have fun!

all you need now is the hard drive mod and your set.

DOAU = d(^_^)b
I will have to agree, fable does lack a few marbles, but its still a good game. Did you get an online deal if it was packaged?

My friend got one of those White Xbox hmm transparrent is probably the best word for them. With 2 controlls and a 40gb harddrive I think modded and chipped. for just 180 bucks ^^, and that was like since summer :O

I woulda spent the money for the games on an XBox modchip and a Seagate HD, but that's just me.
The thing that's most puzzling however is: NO HALO?
Yeah, it's just a mediocre FPS, and on a console no less, but the co-op makes up for so much, DOOM3 as well. :p
Thumbs up on the DOAU though. :D

The xbox is useless I think. All the good games that came out for it where either PC ports, or ported later to PC. I think you just wasted a large bunch of money.

The only people who dont like XBOXes are A: those who dont like realism, which most of the XBOXes games are, or B: those who have never modded their XBOX :P
by the way, if you need any help with modding, softmodding, or hard modding, get to the forums of www.halos-finest.com -you should find any help you need there ^^
