Okay, I know we've talked about this before, but I'm on the fence with this and I want to talk to people who OWN the system and a lot of games for it.
With the recent price drop, I'm thinking it may be time to pick one up. I allready have a GC and a PS2 along with a uber PC. Plus I'm excited about being able to mod the hell out of this sucker.
EB is selling a bundle where you get a new system, a S-Controller, the DVD Remote, and your choice of one out of five games (I know Manhunt is one) for $130. I would'nt need a second controller or a memory card for it, so that means I could get that and a few games for under $200. Not bad.
The main reason why I have NOT gotten one, though, is lack of EXCLUSIVE games. Almost everything I've had a intrest in has been either on another system or the PC first or been ported over to it, including Morrowind, KOTOR, and Halo. And I'm NOT intersted in playing online -- I can allready do that better with my PC.
I never buy a system unless there's about a half dozen games either out or coming out soon that I KNOW I want for the system, and I'm trying to see if I can find enough games to reach that level.
The only two on my list so far are Ninja Gaiden and DOA EBV (Yes, I know, the game is fluff, but I STILL want it. )
I'm mostly into RPG's, strategy/simulation, and adventure games. I buy some sports games but I prefer to keep those on my GC. I don't mind a good FPS as long as it has a good story.
Steel Baltion looks great, but I'm not spending $200 for it. Shenume II looks fun, but I never played the first one. Crimson Sea got bad reviews. Sega's Panzer Dragoon game looks nice but again, I have'nt played any of the eariler ones.
I also have a older TV to play it on (it's going to be AV video) but a 5.1 surrond sound speaker system to enjoy it on.
So, can anyone help me out with games that I'd like? Is there more stuff coming out soon JUST for the XBox that can help me justify the buy? Or should I just wait for the next price drop?
