5.0 out of 5 stars The origanal Xbox is still the best
My kids have the original Xbox and they love it. They have had it for years. What I have observed is that Microsoft has learned from this first console. Was that it (The original Xbox) was built better than it needed to be. So they designed the Xbox 360 with much cheaper and far less durable components. Most of my friends who have purchased them have had them break within...

1.0 out of 5 stars Microsoft hates their customers (but loves money).
I bought my original shiny new XBOX and many new games one month after the xbox360 was released. I resisted buying this original XBOX because I just knew microsoft would find a way of taking my money and then screwing me. SURPRISE, they did just that. Only then did I learn that Microsoft would no longer in any way support the original XBOX and after giving to Microsoft...

My kids have the original Xbox and they love it. They have had it for years. What I have observed is that Microsoft has learned from this first console. Was that it (The original Xbox) was built better than it needed to be. So they designed the Xbox 360 with much cheaper and far less durable components. Most of my friends who have purchased them have had them break within 1 year. They are also very expensive, run very hot and to enjoy the full gaming experience you need to buy all kinds of accessories like hard drives, cooling fans, extra controllers and chargers. Not to mention the $50 it'll cost you to buy games for the thing. I think that when my old Xbox dies I'll be back here to get another one.

Oh he was so happy when he got to play his halo on it.
He loves it.
He has friends over who play it too.
I could not afford an xbox 360 so this met my budget..
thank you for helping me make my son's 10th birthday memorable.

The new systems are over-rated. The original xbox may not be on the bleeding edge of technology but there are a ton of games available and it's a bargain at today's prices!

I love the original xbox. I have resisted buying the 360 because the original games are not compatible. I am looking for a used xbox for my niece because it is such fun and we love to play together. If you can find one, I think it's worth having even though it's an older product.

This review is from: XBOX Console with 2nd Controller, DVD Remote Playback Kit and 2 FREE Games! (Video Game)
I bought my original shiny new XBOX and many new games one month after the xbox360 was released. I resisted buying this original XBOX because I just knew microsoft would find a way of taking my money and then screwing me. SURPRISE, they did just that. Only then did I learn that Microsoft would no longer in any way support the original XBOX and after giving to Microsoft my very hard earned dollars for all that stuff, I was now expected to throw it all out and give them more money for an xbox360. Oh, and then they might get around to backward compatability for a few titles at some point. I pray for the day Microsoft goes down in flames and I will NEVER buy an xbox360.
