I wish the Xbox had more RPGs. It seems like everything is racing, sports, or an FPS. Hopefully Fable will be good when it comes out.

Here is the deal...XBox blows...Microsuck was trying to get as close to the PC as they could, and didn't make it. You wan't Doom 3, get a PC. You want games, get a PS2. Microsoft is losing a million dollars a day on that system. I am not bashing them, they have a really good system, but they don't have the 3rd party that PS2 has. That is the only reason that I don't have one. I have a Dreamcast, a PS2 and a GameCube...but XBox...if I want the game, I will go PC

I think the XBox was built on a special GF3 chipset, which makes me wonder how they can pull it off, if it will choke my GF4 card like benchmarks say it will.

Well in the beginning MicroSoft wanted to make the XBox compatable with PC games. Too bad they scratched the idea! Halo was originallly supposed to be a PC release so go figure!
