Massively underrated console. What are your favourite games and memories with it? Besides Halo I mean. Did you read Official Xbox Magazine?

>>11998706 (OP)
This console was just mostly

>60fps ver of a ps2 game
>Consolized version of a PC game

I wish it had more cool exclusives but most of them were awful like Dino Crisis 3. I really tried to like DC 3 and ignored all the stories about it, but much like dmc2, it's actually fucking shit.

It does have some neat exclusives but they're too few to even think about calling this console underrated.

>>11998708
These days it’s better because the the ps2 version of a game will sell for 80$ and the xbox version will be like 20

>>11998715
I had one and enjoyed it but there was nothing really special about it.
The coolest thing you could do was hack it and turn it into an emulation machine that could hook up to your tv without a tv card back then. It would still play regular xbox games too. Was probably the best thing about the console because it also had a built in LAN port to transfer games and roms.

>Massively underrated console.
I agree. I was a teenager in Australia when the Xbox released in here in 2002 and I literally didn't even know it even existed. PC and PS2 simply dominated here at the time. I think the Xbox 360 was a lot more popular here. I actually found an old Xbox circa 2017 at a local e-waste facility, probably the first time I had ever seen one in-person, and after I figured out how to soft-mod it et cetera I was blown away by some of its exclusives and what it could do, etc. I have only played anf finished Halo: Combat Evolved and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic on it (from an upgraded IDE HDD) so far, but I am planning to play Genma Onimusha next.

>>11998706 (OP)
My favorite games from that era are Dark Coud 2, MGS 3, Dragon Quest 8, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy XII, and Pirates: The Legend of Black Kat. XBox only managed to have one of those games.

>>11998719
I remember modders trying to work on an emu to make it run PS1 and PS2 games on it, and failing.

>I remember modders trying to work on an emu to make it run PS1 and PS2 games on it, and failing.
Pcsxbox worked fine. PS2 of course never happened

Dead to right is awesome

Much better than the PS2/GameCube version

>>11998706 (OP)
Xbox is a PC. If I want a PC, I buy a PC an actual PC and not a PC locked for gaming only (this would be dumb), unless I want to save money and just play games, but that's what Sony, Nintendo, and Sega consoles are for. Microsoft = PC. I don't want a Microsoft console because it's just a PC. If I want a PC, I buy a PC. Therefore, I don't need an Xbox.

>>11998793
Poorfag

>>11998795
Dreamcast and Gamecube were not mentioned

>>11998720
Nice! Onimusha is great. Haven’t played the Xbox version yet, I need to. I think it has a bunch of cut content or maybe different controls idk but the game is cool if you like a more action oriented RE style game.

>>11998793
>Xbox is a PC.
You got it. It's "last year's PC hardware (in a 2001 sense) bought cheap on clearance from parts suppliers, and repackaged into a console." It even runs on the Windows PC kernel that's modified for "console" use so games run like console games instead of like PC games.

>>11998708
>>60fps ver of a ps2 game
Such as?

>>11998706 (OP)
>What are your favourite games and memories with it?
Amped 2, Black, Soul Calibur 2

Did you read Official Xbox Magazine?
The UK one

>>11998793
>It's a PC because erm it has PC parts
It's a box that plays video games and has some secondary functions. I put a disc in it, it plays the game, I use a controller. It's a console. Are you gonna argue the Famicom is actually a PC because it has 'computer' in the name and has a keyboard/programming accessory? Fucking retard.

I was thinking about buying an Xbox for the first time since I've never played one.
After reading so much embarrassment and insufferable entitled and cringe babbling in the official magazine (first issue) I simply gave up... what the fuck is this?
See for yourself.

>>11998706 (OP)
Halo 2, Ninja Gaiden Black, Burnout 3, JSRF, Simpsons Hit and Run.

It is a nice console especially if you like the multiplats of that era. I just wish its hardware wasn't so flakey and there were more exclusives.

>>11998706 (OP)
I was a Xbox guy, I bought it like everyone in the world with the Halo 2 bundle. My to go game was Halo 2 I played so much of it that I even started speedrunning it before discovering speedrun and infact when I discovered the speedruns of Halo 2 I noticed that I used their tactics (not everything I didn't discovered the sword dash sniper).
Anyway I have so much memories with this console too many games but I think the one that I replayed so much and was my favorite is pic related.
Other games that I played a lot with friends and especially my brother were:
-Halo 2
-Star wars battlefront 2
-The Warriors

I just bought the Aladin Chip already flashed now me and my brother are gonna put it on our xbox 1.6 and then we're golden, we're gonna do a 2000 night with old friends and playing those games we never tried or bought.
I wanna do a honorable mention of my games that I played a lot on Xbox and one of the few original games I still Own.
FABLE(OG edition no expansions or stuff)

>>11998815
GTA3

Why does nobody ever mention Blue Dragon? Japanese exclusives are a big part of the appeal to people who never owned an Xbox back in the day. Some great games people haven't played.

>>11999018
Probably because that's an Xbox 360 game my dear zoomie

>>11999018
They do all the time. It just wasn't very good. Also you're dealing with nu-4chan, it's full of underages who weren't around for these eras so all they can do is "hear about it" or speculate

>>11999032
>t. underage

>>11999029
Okay, I fucked up. SMT 9 etc.

>>11998838
I am actually surprised that they managed to have an XBOX magazine for so long in japan.
I am however not surprised that about half of those covers have DoA girls on them. Probably THE system seller over there. Also lmao on the japanized Sudeki artwork.

Xbox library suffers from not having many exclusives. Multi platforms were usually the best on it which is something, but why should I play Halo CE or Riddick on the Xbox, when I can do that on PC too - nowadays with good frame-rate and resolution? Some games had really bad ports, but you'd have to look that up before you play.
Started to play Scarface on it, cool game that is able to run at 720p widescreen. However, this will absolutely tank the framerate, so it's better to play in 480p. Even then 16:9 is obviously more demanding than 4:3. Still cool that we had the option in fucking 2006.
Apart from playing Halo 2 with my brother in coop, I guess Ninja Gaiden was definitly the best game I had for it back then. I also have fond memories of Crimson Skyes and DoA2:U.

>>11998706 (OP)
>capacitors that leak all over the board
>shit disc drives
>if the 20+yo hdd fails the console won't start and you need to raspberry pi the motherboards EEPROM to replace the hdd
>the psu prongs for the plug crack from people simply taking the plug out the system

Microsoft has always built their hardware like shit, the 360 is even worse the disc trays are locked behind keys so you can't even replace them and they still used the shit tray design over the disc eating design.

>>11999051
SNES consoles also had this issue retard, minus the HDD and capacitors although I've had 2 SNES's I repaired that had bad caps

>>11998706 (OP)
I love the Xbox, tons of great games. Riddick is incredible, Amped 2, Bloodwake, Crimson Skies, Mech Assault are all time greats. Crimson Skies especially has incredible online. Been playing online every week these past few months, Rainbow Six 3 and Cod 2 and 3 have been highlights. I got to play so much I haven't experienced in decades like Counter-Strike on Xbox, first time experiences like Conker Live & Reloaded, Urban Chaos and Outrun 2006 online.

>>11999051
You are not wrong and the "key" bullshit is bullshit alright. However I know not one person that still owns his original PS2. I know several people that had at least two - Sony was hardly any better in quality control. People tend to forgive them because PS2 were cheap enough to get new ones and the fats could be HDD modded easily, so the fucked DVD drives didn't matter that much back then.

Not retro: Same shit with 360 and PS3.

>>11999054
Snes consoles had disc drives?
>>11999063
Yeah modding an Xbox is gonna be more expensive and time consuming than a ps2 if you wanna swap the hdd

>>11999083
>Snes consoles had disc drives?
>ACHTUALLY
Just stfu retard. All consoles had some sort of build quality issue that didnt' stand the test of 10 years.

NES "teeth" would wear out. SNES AC ports would break, fuses would bust. Turbo Duos/PCE's has large runs of leaky caps on the entire fucking motherboard.

Stop being a fucking faggot (impossible)

>>11999063
Gamecubes are also all shitting the bed. Turns out 20+ year old electronics need some maintenance.

>>11999092
Some more than others retard. The xbox 360 was having RROD within a couple years of the consoles lifetimes. The OG xboxs power cables had to be recalled because the PSU was such a fire hazard. Microsoft has always built them like shit. Electrolytic caps are bound to go bad on things 20+ years old but the caps on the xbox were faulty in the consoles lifetime because some of the batches they got were so shit.

Stop being a console war faggot 20 years after its over challenge (impossible)

>>11999101
Yes and most gamers don't wanna learn electronic repair. That's why this faggot can thrive.

>>11999101
most people use wii for gamecube stuff

>>11999113
No, it goes in the order of dolphin -> Gamecube -> Wii -> other stuff (wii u, etc)

>>11999101
The only hardware issue the Gamecube has is the disc drive, like every console with a disc drive. Replace it with an ODE.

>>11998706 (OP)
I actually just tried installing xemu the other day and Im SHOOK how well it runs. I have a bit of a potato laptop but its perfectly playable.

>>11999336
Most disc drives are fine, recap your hardware.

>>11998735
PS2 and PS3 processors were weird and ahea of their time.
Kind of hard to replicate something that somehow manages to be much more efficient on multitasking despite the seemingly lower power.

none of this shit affected the console when it was relevant besides the disc drive thing.

Good enough for a round of Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball at least.

Question: In what picture mode do you play xbox games? Most offer widescreen, but often it's the same resolution as 4:3, so the image just looks worse. Some games actually increase the resolution. I just use 4:3 mode as few households really had a widescreen TV in that generation

>>11998706 (OP)
it had some 720p games quite impressive for the time

>>11998815

They hated him because he spoke the truth. He didn't say a damn thing about the games library or anything else, just that the hardware is shit in terms of reliability, which is 100% true.

Regardless of anything else, this level of quality is unacceptable and any "b-but what about xyz" is just a cope.

For me it's Breakdown

>>11998875
I played this recently with the uncensored patch, it was great

>>11999704
I do 4:3 480p for all games, was playing Armed and Dangerous yesterday and it's letter boxed. Some subtitles appear in the letterboxing too. Weird.

>>11998719
I was mad fuckin jealous of a friend with a modded system who could rent an Xbox game and rip it to his hard drive. Emulation wasn’t that impressive to me because the Duke sucks for snes games but damn, getting your hands on KOTOR permanently for $3 was amazing as a kid too young to have a job

>>11999923
Yea you never really know what widescreen entails on the console. M$ had the right idea with putting all settings into the system menu, but every game has a different idea of what "widescreen" is. Kind of like HDR today - good tech, but bad implementation.
That reminds me: NTSC-Xbox allowed you to choose between 480i, 480p, and 720p resolutions. (Soul Calibur II is great in 720p) cool stuff. PAL-Xbox didn't have the progressive scan options sadly, but it had a system wide PAL-60 mode, so we didn't have to deal with 50Hz games anymore. In theory at least...as random games (like fucking Halo!) had problems with it, but you could never know this unless you tried. Turning a great feature into guess-work sometimes. I imagine some games made use of the higher 576i resolution, but who knows.

Ive been enjoying Rallisport Challenge 2 recently and have been meaning to play Scarface too.

I liked fight night. It was actually what got me into boxing, come to think of it.

God tier multiplat machine and vibes that microsoft will NEVER have again.
I've had at least 4 different consoles.
Hardware reliability sucks now with disc drives and hdd, psu, leaky corrosive capacitors
I wish the emulation was as good as dolphin

>>11998793
I will say that certain consoles have a lot of soul due to their specific architecture. In the end however, does it matter if the Xbox was basically a PC?

I think that Nintendo and Sega have a high amount of soul to them. Their platforms feels so authentic. Like they wanted to make certain games and they made the hardware with these games in mind. Their franchises also feel so interconnected and part of your childhood even if you have never played them.

>>11999343
Depends on the game. I think stuff like the Halo games and NGB work fine but I tried to play Panzer Dragoon Orta and it lags heavily.

>>11999824
The GameCube version was also 60fps btw

>>11998706 (OP)

>What are your favourite games and memories with it?

The fact I could rip music CDs to the hard drive blew my mind. I would make custom soundtracks and listen to them while playing GTA 3 and Vice City. Some of my favorite games were Morrowind, Phantasy Star Online, Soul Caliber 2, Ninja Gaiden Black, Project Gotham Racing 1 & 2, Spider-Man 2, Tiger Woods PGA 04, Madden 04, GTA: Vice City, and Knights of the Old Republic.

Not a recent event. Xbox being very problematic is a 2015 affirmation.

Nearly every game worth playing are on PC or already on PCSX2/Dolphin with enhancements surpassing every original version.
No emulator Xbox needed.

I loved pic related when I was a a pre-teen just in middle school and discovering "trash humor" with sex, swears and grossness. I hoped to play it online but never had the chance back in the day, asking to my parents for a monthly fee to play online was really a death sentence to ask. Something i wish I could expirience back in the day.
I heard it was popular to play Halo 2 online, that was another dream to play it back in the day. I had a friend who said he had the subscription and could play online, he played unreal championship.

>>11998708
>>60fps ver of a ps2 game
examples of this? when I got my xbox and checked out some multiplats I had already played on ps2, I remember being surprised how often they looked/ran mostly the same. This years ago though. But for example I remember Black and TSFP running and looking pretty much the same to me. You did always get 480p on xbox though.

Distinctly remember 007 rogue agent online (shit game) and it being one of my 1st times hearing public voice chat in games.

360 isn't a retro console

>>12001061
this is the correct take, style counts for a lot in retro gaming xbox and dreamcast are flawed but authentic consoles, made even moreso because they were never popular in their generation either

>>12005964
Xbox was plenty popular and Halo was a cultural phenomenon. It outsold the Gamecube. It just paled in comparison to the PS2's overwhelming popularity.

how?

>>11998706 (OP)
This thing sucked. For it's time it was great if you liked Halo and it also provided console ports of some great PC games. Other than that it was awful.

Insignia for original xbox restores xbox live functionality to 200 games, works exactly like it did 20 years ago except it's free.

>>12007215
how do I achieve this power?

>>12007224
It's extremely easy, works on modded, unmodded* consoles, and emulators. Just connect your xbox with an ethernet cable to the internet, run the insignia installer and register your console. From there follow the instructions on https://insignia.live/connect using your e-mail.

Getting the installer isn't difficult. You can build your own with stuff like this
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076HHZ41Z
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077XSV7HP

Some people sell memory cards on ebay that will run the installer too which is about as plug and play as it gets.

*technically you're modding it

>>12007175
It aged terribly and it's main selling point was Halo and downgraded PC ports thus giving people the ability to play the new modern FPS whatever on console. Once people moved on to the next fad online FPS and stopped playing Halo on it, there was literally no reason to own it and there is no reason to own it today. All it's competitors had lasting appeal and actual games that are good without being Halo slop.

>>11998706 (OP)
I mostly use my og Xbox to play final burn/mame. I haven't found many games that grab my attention. Hitman contracts is a masterpiece tho

>>12007495
>Once people moved on to the next fad online FPS and stopped playing Halo on it
You mean several years after gaming stopped being retro and the 360 was in its midlife?

>>11998708
I think tons of (timed-) exclusive Xbox games were ported at some point.
Its library is actually really stacked if the games had not been ported elsewhere.
Halo 1 & 2
Ninja Gaiden Black
Dead or Alive 3 & Ultimate
Splinter Cell series
Forza Motorsport
Project Gotham Racing 1 & 2
Panzer Dragoon Orta
Jet Set Radio Future
Sega GT 2002

>>12008608
I would add to the list pic related.
The first time I saw an Xbox was at a friend's house and he was playing this game and I was hooked from the Xbox but I bought it like 2 years later. While this game only like in 2010 at a closing block buster for 3€, I loved the game and style of rta mixed with third person RPG, sometimes the missions and the mechanics were hard to understand at first but after you get the game you really fell like a war commander leading your men.

I bought mine in 2006 with a DuoX2 and 80gb hdd when I was ~15y and video rental stores where a thing. I remember the fee for a weekend was around 5€ and I chose the games based on the cover and the back cover and spent ages browsing through the shelves. Love the CoinOps emu and never had any major issues with this nearly 20 year old console.

>>12008447
Sort of yeah. Once the servers died and people just stopped playing Halo there was no reason to own an Xbox. Online Halo was it. In the modern day it's inexpensive to play games like Doom 3 and Half Life 2 on PC at max settings. Not sure what else there is worth playing on Xbox.

>>12008878
That one is good too. I didn't want to add too much to the list. I could've added a bunch of mech and sports games as well. Like Steel Battalion, MechAssault, Amped and Top Spin.

My xbox needs a recap. Wouldn't turn on last time I tried to use it and when I opened it almost every capacitor on the main board is bulged. At least nothing leaked or anything.

Microsoft were fucking faggots for discontinuing and shutting off Xbox live for the original Xbox but NOT making it so halo 2 could be played online on the 360. That was their flagship game. One of my earliest clues that Microsoft was shit.

>>12009026
>Not sure what else there is worth playing on Xbox.
Ninja Gaiden Black is still an exclusive and last time I checked doesn't emulate perfectly. Ninja Gaiden Sigma is not the same thing and many think it's worse. Maybe you can play it on the newer xboxes though

>>12009662
Is Panzer Dragoon Orta any good?

>>12009507

>Microsoft were fucking faggots for discontinuing and shutting off Xbox live for the original Xbox

On the night of the Xboxalypse, I played Star Wars Battlefront all night... at midnight the matchmaking was shut off but if you were in a hosted game you could continue playing... I played until about 5am when me and the two other players finally signed off

>>12009026
>Not sure what else there is worth playing on Xbox.
I am so sick of people like you, just because it doesn't interest you doesn't mean there aren't games worth playing on it. You probably think the Genesis was nothing but sports games, huh? Anons are listing games and you keep at it like it's only a Halo machine. Just goes to show your own ignorance.

>>12009707
I'll never again get to feel the joy of halo and halo 2 lan parties

Anyone who says the "Duke" was a good controller is just being contrarian.

>>11998706 (OP)

I'd look into Xemu, apparently it's not bad these days

>>12012540
Oh, neat. I looked into it a couple of years back and it was barely functional. I'll give it a shot.
While we are on the subject of the original Xbox and emulation it was a pretty great console for running emulators back in the day. It ran MUGEN better than a lot of hacked modern day consoles.
A good portion of my nostalgia for the classic Xbox comes from playing a bunch of arcade classics for the first time on my Xbox that my mom's boyfriend at the time hacked for me.

funny how you can immediately tell when snoys and tendies come here to cope. Legendary system and experience. Still playing it today.

>currently enjoying nfl fever 2003

Why did the game dude shit on so many games for it then?

>>12012629
He had a bad attitude.

>>12009507
This is a reason why the Xbox is so wrong in every way. All the game sare online based and thus have actual expiration dates, aside from being the latest fad or trend. Japanese games are timeless, westslop tends way too hard towards being online multiplayer based or brownoid crime simulators.

You can never replay Halo 2 as it was because nobody plays it anymore and it was meant to be played with others. In the meantime you can enjoy Fortnite and in the future a further devolution of the FPS genre.

>>12012648
He is so ruuuude

>>11998706 (OP)
Great console held back by a lack of titles. The titles it did get performed better than the PS2/DC/GC counterparts, but it just lacked the Japanese titles that carried Sony.

They remedied this with the 360 though

>>12012707
>lacked the japanese titles that carried sony

you mean all the nip jrpg slop that slopes and niggers love? no thanks. you faggots are cancer.

>>12012658

Ever heard of campaign mode? or Insignia if you want online play? Xbox has very strong cult following, and most of its best titles are enjoyable via offline play.

Why do snoys and tendies cope so hard? it's absolutely pathetic. Outside sales, you enjoyed an inferior console and there is nothing wrong with that.

>>12012924
No, he means games like Gran Turismo, Metal Gear Solid, Tekken, Ace Combat, Devil May Cry, etc

>>12012924
A majority of titles from Japan during that period weren’t JRPGs. The Xbox lacked a lot of titles and when it did get one, it didn’t get the others. I don’t know why you’re being a colossal faggot about this widely known fact.

>>12012929
Who the hell plays Halo for campaign? I mean I played the campaign. It was OK I guess. It dragged on literally for fucking ever, but it's all endemic of western games. The single player "game" is actually a movie, you play it once, maybe more or some levels you thought were cool. But the actual game part you keep playing is the multiplayer mode.

A game like Half Life whose definitive experience is the single player is different. I never thought highly of Halo's campaign and always found it boring.

>>12012953
and xbox has project gotham, splinter cell/riddick, doa 3, ninja gaiden. they good.

>>12012964
list these games, let's see what the xbox chads missed out on.

>>12012967
two betrayals should've been a better level, but outside that it's an awesome campaign. Halo 2 was hit or miss depending if you liked the arbiter. but chiefs missions were great, still a great fps title. oh and you can enjoy it online now if you wanted to.

xbox chads have never stopped winning. one of my favorite dunks ever was picking up cheap duke controllers in akihabara from a smug nip, only for him to change his tune once he realized he was underselling all their xbox stuff.

Only DoA3 and Ninja Gaiden are Japanese, but the Xbox does have more Japanese games than that. They had MGS2, Fatal Frame 1&2, Silent Hill 2, Breakdown, Panzer Dragoon Orta, Jet Set Radio Future, GunValkyrie, Shenmue 2 & Phantom Crash.

But there's hundreds of Japanese games that Xbox missed, that the PS2 had.

I remember getting Munch's Oddysee and JSRF with my Xbox when I first bought it. Both are still my favorites for the console. The visuals and open worlds in both were really impressive coming from the PS2.

Just a few, desu.

>Didn't get a single Resident Evil release
Big shame, I think it would've done well on there. All because Microshart fumbled talks with Mikami.

When people on here say that Xbox had no games, they are referring to Japanese AAA titles, I found out. They want FF/JRPGs, MGS, RE, SH, DmC, Onimusha, Tekken and so on.
Like someone mentioned above.

That image has some errors. Shenmue 2 was on DC and RE:CVX was on GC as well.

Shenmue 2 never hit the US on DC, iirc. And I did miss CVX for GC, so thanks for point it out.
