>MGS 2 No >SH2 It's got some (minor) missing fog effects, but son yggers of the time lauded that around.
Get all of those BTW

>Half Life 2 W..Why..?
Ian Garcia
Here are some games that I have on my hard drive that I think might be worth it: >Call of Cthulhu >All of the Splinter Cells, especially the Xbox gen exclusive version of Double Agent >Breakdown >Mercenaries >Doom 3 >Buffy

xbox had a great digital out for the time. games usually looked sharper and run at higher fps and less loading times.
it was basically the PS4 Pro/Xbox One X of the time
Joshua Sanchez
Half Life 2 on Xbox is a shit port. It's impressive that they managed to cram it onto the console but that's it.
MGS2 is one of the only Xbox games that runs worse than the PS2 version. Nearly every other game runs better. But the PS2 has more exclusives so eh. >Outrun 2 Fine taste.
Hunter Sullivan
>XBOX VS PS2 Every game that was released for both platforms was superior on XBOX - thats a fact and there are no exceptions. Prove me wrong!? PS2 had better exclusives.
Samuel Nguyen
There's no reason not to have both with how they're both so cheap and moddable nowadays. PS2 is way easier to mod, but I'd say it's worth modding an OG Xbox because lack of emulators.
Skip on the Xbox ports MGS2, HL2, and Onimusha. They all play better on PS2. Also get your hands on Jet Set Radio Future.
Ryder Collins
OG Xbox is severely underrated. It had a solid library
Bonus is that you can play the GOAT action game (NG Black) on xbone now
Colton Bennett
In many ways it is superior to the PS2. For one, it's almost a generation ahead in terms of power. It has an internal hard drive, eliminating the need for memory cards. Also it has 4 controller ports built in. The library is a lot smaller than the PS2's but it has a few neat exclusives.
Angel Nguyen
Xbox blows the fuck out of everything else that gen power wise.
Don't forget Halo 2.
HL2 on Xbox is a fun novelty. Like Doom on Switch and SNES.
Juan Jenkins
>HL2 >play better on PS2 I didn't mean to include that one. PC of course.
Adrian Morris
they also had Doom 3 on xbox
Connor Anderson
Agreed. I played it through, even though it never reached 30fps and struggled to stay above 20. Was interesting.
David Jones
Thanks for reminding me.
If you get Doom 3 get the Collectors Edition. It has Doom 1 and 2 with couch co-op.
I think the physics caused it to crash a few times too.
Asher Phillips
It is superior to the PS2 in pretty much every single way except long term reliability, size and price.
It had better multiplats, better online, you can mod it to hell and back nowadays and get a bunch of emulators for it. It had, arguably, better exclusives too. Shame about Ace Combat.
You can get one for like 50 bucks in mint condition nowadays.

youtube.com/watch?v=Ur2DGrxFE-g I don't like this shitter too much but the videos have a good comfy "eat food while watching classic games" vibe
Jayden Campbell
>It had, arguably, better exclusives too. Sega exclusives were top tier but otherwise the Xbox is lacking the across-the-board exclusive support the PS2 had. I just can't agree with this. >you can mod it to hell and back nowadays and get a bunch of emulators for it. Why would you do this? The controller is shit for emulators, and fucker's huge, you could to a better job with a raspberry pi>
David Rodriguez
It's definitely worth getting, they're pretty cheap and the softmod makes it an absurdly capable machine. I have a huegbox with the softmod and a 160GB HDD swap, I can just FTP games from my PC onto the thing, swap the region to the required one and run them straight off the hard drive.
Jack Young
Xbox is sort of better; it goes: If you must buy one console: PS2 > Xbox > GCN If you can buy two: Xbox > GCN > PS2 If you can buy three: Xbox > GCN > Dreamcast > PS2. The only advantage the PS2 has is that a bunch of sixth-gen games are PS2/GCN only or PS2/Xbox only. If you can buy two systems it's easily the worst of the bunch with all the ports being rather poor and the only notable exclusives being almost all JRPGs or rhythm games.
Carson Rogers
The S controller exists which is quite comfortable really. That and you can find a ton of off brand controllers.
Levi Green
None of them have a good dpad, which is essential for emulation.
