Message: <blockquote data-quote="trancejeremy" data-source="post: 973627" data-attributes="member: 924">I got one a few months ago, about a month before the price drop.I'm glad I bought one, but it doesn't have the tons of good, cheap games the PS2 has. The only cheapie I've bought that I really liked was Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance ($10 at Best Buy a few weeks ago). I was disappointed in Project Gotham Racing - I thought it was a racing game (like Tokyo Extreme Racer), instead it's like a nightmare - the gameplay is like the driver's tests from Gran Turismo, driving through cones all the time.The price on the two killer apps the PS2 has (GTA3 and GT3) is now down to $20. OTOH, the Xbox's killer app, Halo, is still $50 (as is just about everything else really good, though DOA Volleyball usually sells for $30 now). If you don't mind paying $50 for good games, then it's really worth it.  Or if you really like FPSes, it's greats.The coolest thing is probably the custom soundtrack feature. A lot of games don't support it, but basically, you can rip a cd you own to the hard drive of the Xbox, and listen to that in a game. Very few games have the sort of music I like (trance & house) so this is a very cool feature.</blockquote>
