Is the XBox a flop or not. Everybody had been waiting for this next gen console to come out.When it was released people were flooding to get one in the shops but then about a month later I went into a games shop and there were loads of consoles still avaible. Then when I wondered is XBox was a flop.

I'm not sure everybody thinks that but I've heard that the machines scatches the disk and the games aren't as good as they are made out to be. The only games that I think are good is Obi-Wan, Halo and Gta3 that actually push Xbox's power to the limit. I know that they're are rivals like the Playstation 2 and the longely awaited Gamecube but I don't think the Xbox will survive even as long as the Dreamcast did.

My verdict is that I think it is a flop and I'm sure people think differently about it but wouldn't you think a 733MHz proceesor would do a better jobs of entertaining.

So lets see here, X-Box is a flop while Halo has been doing well ? Veeeeeery interesting to picture all these daft gits that have bought Halo, but not a console to play it on. Hmmmmmmmm.

But they are, take MAX PAYNE for example, look at the PS2 version... it looks bad! The X-BOX version is the strongest out of all three! This speaks volumes and shows that the PS2 can not deliver AAA grade titles without a struggle, disappointing really as this title is enough to get an X-BOX for alone. That should be your benchmark for what future games on the X-BOX will be like, especially PS2 ones brought to it, GTA3 on X-BOX, now that is exciting.

A magazine is one persons oppinion, I know 5 people who own a PS2 and X-BOX and one lad who imported a GC and the X-BOX is their favourite console despite the PS2 being a close challenger.

Read through my post again and get it into your head what this thing can do!
