Ninja Gaiden + Black were the best games last gen.  Put 80 hours into DOAUltimate in a week or two as well.  Put in a ton of time into CVS2 and 3rd Strike online as well.  I liked more games on the PS2, but those xbox games were the ones I played most.

having a modded xbox was pretty damn sweet too thanks to XBMC and ripping games so easily.

Excuse the bump, but I just got ahold of a quality second hand Xbox :D So far this thing looks very impressing and I haven't even started it up yet!

Immediately opened it up to check out the insides (have v1.6a). I'll start modding it in a minute but for some reason I see this white chewing gum-like gunk sitting on the mobo. Is this normal?

Of course that isnt normal. Who in their right mind opens up Xboxes and smears chewing gum all over it?

i once got a ps2 slim that was once a roach nest.   :-\   i read up and apparently it happens-- they like a warm enclosed space.  I wouldn't have known, but I opened it to mod it.  I thought someone spilled a cup of chewing tobacco spit in there, then I noticed the carapaces and barbed legs...
