WHY I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY
Xbox
Why did you buy it?
To play games like Abe's Odyssey, which is amazing! There's no real excuse for buying an Xbox, is there? You just buy it to mess about on.
What does it do for you?
It entertains me on a Sunday afternoon. There's nothing like stamping a prostitute to death in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to calm the nerves -- I'm kidding! I like racing games like Need For Speed Underground.
Would you recommend it to others? Why?
If you're looking for a games console, you're either going to get the Xbox or the PlayStation 2. The graphics on the Xbox are better and I prefer the controller. Sometimes it's annoying because the games come out quicker on the PS2, but at least I know that they'll look sweeter on the Xbox.
