Ok ScotchGuy,....you want 10 games to be named that make xbox the BEST and are as good as Halo. Not all of these have been Releases yet but here i go.

* Numbers dont mean how good they are*
*these are all ONLY on Xbox *
* And i have more than 10*

1. Counter Strike
2. Half-Life ( Not the same as Counter Strike)
3. Conker: Live and Uncut
4. Dead to Rights
5. Fable
6. Halo 2
7. Mech Assault
8. The Whole XSN Sports group of games ( about six of them)
9. Doom III
10. Quantum Redshift
11. Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War ( Not sure if its only Xbox...i dont think it is)
12. Sega GT 2002 Online
13. Steel Battalion
14. Tom Clancys Rainbow Six 3
15. True Crime: Streets of L.A.
16. Unreal Championship
17. Xbox Music Mixer ( Not a game.....but used to copy CD&#39;s etc..)
18. Deathrow
19. Brute Force ( Its good after u get good at it)
20. Phantasy Star Online Episode I and II

might i point out the number of games in this list already on other consoles

PC
half-life (PS2 and dreamcast)
counter-strike
mech assault (mainly just taking the mechwarrior series to xbox)
Doom 3 (xbox power is just at reccomended spec)
return to castle wolfenstein (PS2 as well)
rainbow six 3 raven shield
Unreal Championship (UT2003)

N64
Conker: live and uncut (just conkers bad fur day with extra multiplayer)

I think I&#39;m going to get some death threats soon [/b][/quote]
Its a New Half-Life.....Half-Life 2 or something..

Counter Strike is a going to be a different version of it.( More features etc..)

Conker Live and Uncut has a ton of new stuff and its gonna be so much fun.....i was reading about it and there is a ton of new weapons....its alot better than Conkers Bad Furday

Mech Assault is much better than piece of shit Mech Warrior

Doom III will be ONLY on xbox.

Unreal Championship doesnt have the normal human weapons that UT 2003 does...it has different kinds of weapons and better levels.

[budgetboy]

then how come both E3 showings of doom3 were on pc?

Half-life 2 is also on pc (got the E3 movie myself )

the new counter-strike is also coming to pc called CS condition zero

and I&#39;m guessing that Unral champ gave xbox users some mutators and the odd mod since they couldnt d/l there own

[DarkBlizzard]

Whatever the case....i still named at least 10 which is all i care about

[DarkBlizzard]

All The more reason to get an Xbox..

[budgetboy]

ah... halo 2

I got the E3 movie and I agree it looks excellent

I think I&#39;ll play it on an emulator when I get a new pc

[DarkBlizzard]

You can download the Official Halo 2 from E3 here... This download is very nice quailty.

Halo 2 on an emulator?

I hope you are kidding


Anyway you should look at it like this. If you have a powerful PC then you will be able to get a lot of the Xbox "console exclusive" games on there. If you don&#39;t then you should get an Xbox. The Gamecube has more exclusives than the PS2 and Xbox put together

Do you like online gaming? If Yes then get an Xbox. If not then get a gamecube.

Are emulation and homebrew game/app capabilities important to you? If yes then get an Xbox with a modchip. If not, get a Gamecube.

Do you have a Gameboy advance? If yes then you might consider a gamecube for the interconnectivity features. eg Splinter Cell uses the GBA as a HUD map. It&#39;s very very cool.

I got my Xbox bundle from amazon a while ago. It came with 5 games for £205. The games were all good too (Halo, Splinter Cell, Jet Set Radio Future , SegaGT 2002 & rallisport Challenge). So you might want to try them and see what they have available right now. www.chochollect.com (mars promotion thing) also had an Xbox for free if you sent in 70 mars bar wrappers. I don&#39;t think they do it anymore though

Gamecube&#33; By a long way&#33;

Seriously, I can&#39;t think of any reason why anyone who could only buy one console would choose a PS2 or X-Box above the GC.

Consoles:
1. GC - great games
2. X-Box - some great games, some not so great
3. PS2 - loads and loads of really poor games, and just one or two great ones

Please don&#39;t call me a fanboy, since I do own and enjoy all three...
