Personally, if Rare announced today that all their future titles will be on X-Box, I wouldn't rush out and buy one tomorrow. For me, the X-Box really is very unappealing. I used to want Halo, but seeing as it's now coming out on PC, I'm not bothered about that. There are no games I want, I curse that 'controller' and it's just so damn ugly! (Those are all my own opinions, so no X-Box fanboys please).

I tells ya, Rare's games would have to be REALLY special for me to buy an X-Box, and even then, I'd wait till it's reduced to about £100.

No. And I'd still reckon that if I ever win an X-box or somehow get one for free, theres still a 50% I'd just sell it.

At the moment, i have neither the money to get an xbox or the time to play the games (in addition to those i'll have for the cube).
But if i didn't have a dvd, or i would be able to actually play the games, rare jumping on board would probably tip the balance for me to get one.

Well considering ive just read something saying that metal gear solid 3 may be an x-box exclusive aswel it meansi may well be persuaded to buy an xbox. I dont particularly want to buy that hunk of junk either, its just so big fat and ugly to look at!!!

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Thanks!
