5.0 out of 5 stars AN EXCELLENT SYSTEM (but not for young kids) July 6 2003
By A Customer
The Xbox is a powerful system with great games. But I wouldn't recommend this system for young kids. See, most of the games are rated for teenageers. You will not find a lot of games rated for everyone (not including sport games). But I know two games your kids might like. They are Frogger Beyond and TY the Tasmanian Tiger. They are both rated for everyone and are very addictive games. But your kids must have a lot of patience for these games because they are very hard!(especially Frogger Beyond) But if you have young kids, I suggest you get a Gamecube, because there are a ton of games rated for everyone.
I hope this was helpful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good. Jun 20 2003
If you like RPG's then you will hate this system, at least until Fable and Sudeki come out. I am an RPG fanatic so when I got this system for Christmas, I tried looking for any RPG I could. The only real good one is Baldurs Gate. That game is pretty fun since it's two player but the system needs a good, X-box only RPG that is a basic, Level-Up, Equiping weapons and armor, Turn-based battles RPG.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stop The Lies Jun 14 2003
When the 3 next-gen consoles were first announced, I thought I'd be getting a GameCube. Then, to my dismay, Nintendo told us all of it's intentions to focus on the younger audience and plain-old gaming with no extra features (DVD player *cough* online support *cough*). So, GC was out. I switched to the PlayStation 2, but when my PS1 broke down, I was discouraged by Sony's terrible technical support. With only one choice left, I turned to ol' Microsoft. Bill Gates (a.k.a. Uncle Pennybags) can't let us down too badly, can he? Not a chance.

As many PS2 and GC loyalists would want you to believe, the Xbox does not overheat excessively. In fact (in the words of EGM), the only time it may catch fire is if you happen to be "holding it over an open flame". I've had my Xbox since it came out, and unlike the PS2 I once owned, it has never frozen up or crashed in any way. Yes, Xbox may be big (and weigh in at 8 pounds), but unless you're constantly moving it, this isn't a problem. The "old" controllers and S controllers are both made of equally comfortable plastic (strange, but true) and should only serve as a hinderance for those with tiny hands. Plus, with all the little extras that MS came up with, Xbox is the one and only choice for hardcore gamers. And now with "Xbox LIVE" up and running, more and more people are turning to the power of X for their console of choice.

Don't get left behind.

5.0 out of 5 stars XBOX- Is there any other choice?
[...]. Here's the deal-

The XBOX is very powerful. It takes the games originally out for the PS2, and improves them. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, poor execution
Like everything Microsoft does, they tried too hard, and ended up creating a monster system, while overlooking some of the simplest things. Read more

To be honest with everybody, I have been a Nintendo fan ever since I got my first NES. But when I went over to my friends house to play the Xbox, I was very disappointed. Read more
