The only games I got on Xbox are Halo, DOA3, RalliSport Challenge and Project GOtham Racing.

I only got the 2 racing games thanks to the "free game" deal coz Xbox price lowered.

[MO]I don't like the racing games (well in general). DOA3 is an "average" fighting game. Halo I think is good, but there are not enough weapons in the game. I don't think it's "awesome" nemore. I had way more fun with PD and GE (even though the controller scheme is better for Xbox).[/MO]

So far I've had more fun with my GC. SSB:Melee, Waverace, Super Monkey Ball and Rogue Leader I seem to enjoy a lot more than my current Xbox games.

I just don't wanna feel as if i've wasted my money on the Xbox. Right now I do :(

You simply have a different taste in games... I think Xbox so far is better because it has more sports sims(HUGE plus), better fighting games, better racers, and ports that usually consist of more levels (Tony Hawk, Spider Man)

As far as future games, Nintendo's efforts have gone unrespected by me. On one hand, there is the Mario, Mario Party, and Zelda games... which are great. Then there are the newish games like Metriod Prime, Star Fox, and Eternal Darkness, which I have no plans to buy now that I saw them at E3...(things may change back, but there are too many Ps2/Xbox games and ports coming this fall for me to waste my time or money)

Then there are the disapointments. N64 had the best wrestling games, doesn't look like it anymore. Plus Goldeneye/Perfect dark played huge rolls in why I liked N64, but where is Rare? Probably developing for other consoles... the FPSs that are supposed to hold me off are Timesplitters and Bond?Bond doesn't live up to a Rare FPS, and Timesplitters is coming to Ps2 with more features.

I'm also disapointed in the online plans and the missing SD Cards.

But like I said before... we got different tastes. Some people can get one Nintendo franchise game every other month and it would be better than any other list of games. Some people also just like games generally better because it is on thier favorite console. (Sonic, Bond, or WMx8 anybody?)

The lack of games. Halo, Hunter, and Morrowind...that's about all there is right now for Xbox.

*thinks about Brute Force & Ninja Gaiden*

What dissappoints me is how long it takes the games to come out here in Europe.

Well I was pissed... when I found out SSX Tricky isn't coming to the European X-Box.

Also have you heared Silent Hill: Restless Dreams is coming to Europe as Silent Hill 2: Inner Fears but remade graphics in October. At least the wait is somehow justified. Still it sucks.

ICO for PS2 came out what... 3 weeks ago or something.

Europe sucks.

Well I got my Ps2 modded and I can play all the Japanese /US games on release. I even got Tekken4 b4 the US :p

They are copied though. FFX did have some problems. BUt I had it running at Full screen and full frame rates/speed.

C the PAL Version? Those borders are bloody huge!

The reason y FFX don't work at certain parts is coz I got one of the first batches of PS2's, and the laser ain't strong enuff to play some copied DVD's like FFX.
