a comment about the Xbox version are always better if the game is released on multiplatforms, thats not 100% true... it all depends on the maker of the game... alot of the times the maker will just take the bottom denominator of all 3 consoles and have the game be like that, thus being practically the same on every console without taking advantace of what other consoles have to offer, alot of games on Xbox are just like PS2, since they just ported it and thats it thats all,
a few games on the other hand to get reworked to take advantage of Xbox's hardware, and those games make it worth while, I cant wait for Dead or Alive Online game to come out... the remake of DOA 1 and 2, and DOA 2 remake is literaly remade, build on Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleyball engine with crapload of other extras added etc etc.... it looks better than DOA3, and DOA3 which was the flag ship game for the xbox (over 2 years ago) still beats anything that comes on the market, (Mortal Kombat and Tao Feng games are a joke, SOul Calibur, didnt like it too much at all... I'll try the dometic game (been playing import for 6 months) but it doesnt apeal to me.. DOA has way better graphics and moves, countermoves etc etc... while soul calibur likes kinda washed out, textures so bright... and moves suck... hard to do counters etc etc...
and the collecting of weapons and stuff? if i want to "build up" i would go play an RPG ;p
anyhow, my point is... Xbox is the most flexable console (i own all 3) it gets most use, PS2 collecting dust... gamecube.... my mom plays animal crossing.. thats about it...
so... the moral of this story is, get xbox, get it modded with 120+ gig harddive, and u'll get alot out of the system (play PS1 games on it! how great is that!!!)
also, like Schultz mentioned about emulators, u guys remember the light gun games for SNES SEGA Nintendo... well u can play with using xbox light gun!
theres way too many things that modded xbox is capable of to list, so I wont... I'll go back to playing Final Fantasy Tactics on my GBA emulator on my xbox
