They are also very expensive, run very hot and to enjoy the full gaming experience you need to buy all kinds of accessories like hard drives, cooling fans, extra controllers and chargers.
My kids have the original Xbox and they love it.
Not to mention the $50 it'll cost you to buy games for the thing.
They have had it for years.
Most of my friends who have purchased them have had them break within 1 year.
Was that it (The original Xbox) was built better than it needed to be.
What I have observed is that Microsoft has learned from this first console.
So they designed the Xbox 360 with much cheaper and far less durable components.
I think that when my old Xbox dies I'll be back here to get another one.
I am looking for a used xbox for my niece because it is such fun and we love to play together. I love the original xbox. I have resisted buying the 360 because the original games are not compatible. If you can find one, I think it's worth having even though it's an older product.
I bought my original shiny new XBOX and many new games one month after the xbox360 was released. Oh, and then they might get around to backward compatability for a few titles at some point. Only then did I learn that Microsoft would no longer in any way support the original XBOX and after giving to Microsoft my very hard earned dollars for all that stuff, I was now expected to throw it all out and give them more money for an xbox360. I resisted buying this original XBOX because I just knew microsoft would find a way of taking my money and then screwing me. SURPRISE, they did just that. I pray for the day Microsoft goes down in flames and I will NEVER buy an xbox360.
