Those of you who have XBox's, post your XBox Live Gamertag, region, and what game(s) you play. Since we all interact on this site anyway, I think it would be a lot of fun to play on XBL with people that I sort of feel like I know already. Who knows, maybe we can even get some clans going.
My Info
Gamertag: "Rampant Mjolnir"
Region: United States
Games I Play: Halo 2, Dead Or Alive: Ultimate, ESPN NFL 2K5
I don't have an XBox because 1) I would never have anywhere to put it 2) the controller is too big for me to ever have a chance of playing it 3) micro$oft are teh evils
Lol XBOX has the worst designed controller ive ever seen, one question to have Xbox Live do you need broadband? or do you just have to buy that XBOX live thing?
I agree the XBox controller sucks (both of them). Like my friend Dennis put it, "the xbox controller is like the Dreamcast controller's fat sister!" Still, the system has an awesome online component, and any console Bungie develops for is OK in my book.
[edit] Yeah, you have to have broadband. That's the nice thing about XBox Live. No 56Kers lagging the place up -- tho some with crappy DSL still slow things down once in a while.
ZOMG!!! WELL DONES ON YUOR INTELLIGANCE!! NOW WHEAR DID I PUT MY SERIEUS POST ????
I still find the small controller too big for my liking. I don't need an XBox because (Halo aside) there are very few games which I want or can't get on PS2/Gamecube. I will say that XBox Live seems to be better (just compare Star Wars Battlefront on both and see which version is actually playable) but it still doesn't draw me. Plus, I don't have the room. HAR HAR HAR.
Agreed, I hate the XBox pad. The Playstation pads are by far the best, small, comfortable and have everything you need accessable easily.
I don't really rate Halo as high as everyone else does, I mean just about every good FPS on the PC is better than Halo, and all the games I wanted in a console were available on the PS2. Got GTA:San Andreas yesterday by the way.
Sorry, got a bit off topic there.
I agree with trev and firemonkey. When my mate got his xbox and halo ages ago he called me round to play this 'incredible' game, and to be honest i though it was just an average FPS, many a PC FPS can beat it. I thought it was quite boring IMHO. Its also got be the most severely over-hyped game ever IMHO.
He was really impressed with their attempt at bump mapping using something that looked like a 64x64 texture .
I can not comment on halo 2 as i havent played it ...But I hope its more fun to play than the original.
I have Halo 2. I haven't played single player but I play Multi player in a clan. It's a good game, but as has been mentioned, not nearly as fun as PC FPS's.
I play Joint Operations on the PC and I'm getting the expansion for it. Very fun game. 150 players can play at once.
Even BF 1942/Vietnam on PC are better than Halo/Halo2 or any other console FPS IMHO. That being said, it didn't stop me from buying Halo 2 and joining up with my online friends and their clan lol.
anyone seen the unofficial Xbox and PS2 mini controllers? they look very snazzy indeed
IMO, the cube has the comfiest of controllers. it just fits oh so well
