Title: Real Talk: I'm gonna actually plug in mah xbox.
Post by: T234 on October 25, 2007, 04:33:28 PM
Fuck it dudes, I got a shelf full of XBOX games I need to beat. No more of this, "I'm progressing too far, too fast" shit like in the past.

The list of games I need to beat is pretty damn long: Otogi 1&2(came close to beating 1, never came close to beating 2), both Oddworld games [two of the best and most varied experiences I had over the past couple of years. It also has the best art I've ever seen, only rivaled by Bioshock and Okami (easy difficulty and repetition be damned). Was there ever an Oddworld art book released?]. Kotor 2 (gonna do it right, on the PC), Gladius (TO HELL WITH FINAL FANTASY TACTICS, THIS IS THE GREATEST CONSOLE TURN-BASED STRATEGY GAME EVER MADE. YES, EVEN BETTER THAN YER TACTICS OGRE OR YER FIRE EMBLEM), NGB, and I can't even think of the rest just yet.

The PS2 shelf is getting hit next.

COWER IN FEAR, .HACK GAMES

I tore through the first 4 .hack games, and actually had a lot of fun. Some of the dungeons in the last two games are so fuck challenging, and phase 6 and 7 of morgana made me SO MAD.

Did 2 of the GU series, loved it, have 3 sitting around. Sadly in a Gundam Musou and WoW mood.

Does your Xbox just not turn on or what?

it is a confluence of many factors, including a stripped worm gear on the drive tray mechanism, a busted drive head, and a busted HD.

I have a modded XBox and a legit Xbox. I play neither.

You should get Advent Rising.

Was it modded?

My drive won't hardly read shit, so I either need to mod it (there is a way to add another optical drive to an xbox), or live with it. One of these days I'm gonna mod it. The xbox itself already is, just a few simple tweaks left.

I saw it used for 1.99$ the other day.  Sounded about right.
Damn west coast prices being too high!
