Aside from Ninja Gaiden Black? I wouldnt say anything else is must play
>>340700467

>>340700467
This pretty obscure launch game called Halo: Combat Evolved. It went pretty under the radar but it did get enough of a cult following to get a sequel.
ToeJam & Earl III
>Just picked up one of these bad boys!

Stubbs the Zombie.
If you have the money I think there's a mech game called steel battalion thats supposedly good but I've never played it

Should be noted that Unreal Championship 2 is very different from Unreal Tournament proper.
>>340703465
6th gen is the most underrated gen I think. People here only care about PS2 but if you look at more obscure stuff on Gamecube and xbox you can find some great gems.

Mah nigga. This is awesome. Some of the funnest multiplayer out there. 2 is great as well
Fable is awesome TLC if you can
The Tom Clancy Ghost Recons are awesome too (pc is better since you can mod tho)
Forza Motorsport
Project Gotham Racing 2
Steel Battalion + controller
Ghost Recon 2 Summit Strike
Ghost Recon 2 (the xbox release is superior)
The list is rather short. Most xbox exclusives worth playing eventually got a PC release.

>>340701216
The op said exclusive faggot
>>340705304
It's because the OG Xbox was essentially the Dreamcast 2.0. Things started going downhill during the 360 era.
>>340705767
doesn't work on modern OSess though. that's why they took it off steam like 7 years ago.
>>340702067
Crackdown was 360 wasn't it?
>>340700467
Forza holds up nicely to the ragvages of time....mostly
also rollercoaster tycoon was pretty fun if you had the right controller
skip pgr2
.....i cant think of my old collection....but im pretty sure there were some slick non-halo exclusives beyond the obvious jsrf refrence...that wipeout ripoff was real nice, as was (butchering it) kakto chojin' if you have the disc for it, man it was a great game.
There were some seriously good games for it....breakdown was meh, bloodwake was underrated for the gameplay it offered.....i keep nearly giving up but then more memories pop up, amped was legit
>>340700467

I loved it with them but I honestly can't imagine it being any fun without them, don't know if OP has friends willing to play decade old party games with him

>>340700467
>all these games
>no one has posted this one yetDo you hate AMERICA Anton's?
>>340706885
Whether or not it's exclusive to Xbox doesn't make it any less of a great game.
>>340706728
Yeah, it was fun.
I think it might have helped the game at least a little that Crimson Skies was actually a miniatures/wargame property that no one's ever heard of, one that already had a pretty cool pulp setting written up for it. So the devs had a good template to work their gameplay into.
>>340701429
Project Gotham was amazing. My dad hates video games for some reason but even he spent hours on it. Probably not as good today since racing games age more than any other genre
Both kingdom under fire games. Just played them again recently for the first time in over a decade and they've aged amazingly
Conker is fun as fuck.
how does one mod the hdd?
I succeed the hot swap but the computer can't find the cd.
have only one ide port.
Should try usb version but can't find decent tutorials
Xbox had a ton of quality games. If you pick one out of the library, it's likely to be good. There's something pure about the games that came out for this console.
>>340703550
Still leagues ahead of UT3.
>>340700467
You're gonna have a lot of fun playing the shooter games that were available on this console:
>Metal Arms: Glitch In The System
>Darkwatch (DVoaM)
>Conflict: Desert Storm
>Alter Echo
>Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2
>>340707803
Alright, so I killed the poo, went to the toll and now I backtracked to fight the bulldog fish, will that get me enough money to pass? Please don't spoil.
>>340700628
This and Panzer Dragoon Orta are the only games I would care about on Xbox.
MOTHERFUCKING ALLIED STRIKE
Scarface: The World is Yours
Obviously it's better on PC, but it's nigh impossible to get working on modern rigs.
A charming and underrated platformer
>>340707928

I never got the full game but I played the shit out of the demo.
>>340710332
Cause there's many good games
>>340710558
Someone should make a best of xbox list. There are so many of these threads but they are never stored anywhere except maybe the archive
>>340710941
No need. Xbox really had little bad games.
>>340703125
>>340710941
Needs Voodoo Vince, Otogi 2 and Phantom Dust, but it's otherwise a pretty good chart.
>>340700467
The thing about Xbox is - although it has lots of exclusives - they are all middling to good, and few great - but none are must haves and thus why most people on here dgaf about it. It was much better than the 360 though.
Also people will disagree butSEGA fans overate the living fuck out of this console calling average shit like Jet Set Radio a 9/10 game.
>>340712848
The only reason people dont talk about those games because
>no xbox emulator
>most people on here are newfags who never played one
There's kids here who are just now playing Ocarina of Time. That should tell you enough.
>>340703125
totally forgot about gun valkyrie. That game was great.
>>340703550
I really enjoyed UCII.
That melee combat was amazing.

Also what should be added to this list?
You know what you gotta do.
This is the definition of a hidden gem. Everybody assumes that it's a shitty licensed game but nothing could be further from the truth.
Not to be confused with the 'sequel' Chaos Bleeds.
>>340713975
All xbox games should. The library was good.
Was Grabbed by the Ghoulies a good game? I remember wanting to play it then I got my Xbox stolen
>>340714338
Will I like this game if I never watched Buffy?
>>340713975
>>340713820
I like having physical discs as well.
>>340714512
I think there's definitely enough in it that you could. But you would get more value out of it if you watched the show since its set and feels like an extra episode in Season 3 (Buffy's best or second best season).
>>340714182
What... how would you even use this?
>>340714578
Your OG xbox dvd drive will die sooner or later anyway. And they arent exactly easy to replace.
Help a nigga out on finding this game. It was an Xbox game that was similar to the NES Godzilla, you'd move fighters towards each other, once you met up it was 3D fighting instead, there were different elements such as Darkness, fire, water, Earth, and different characters you could control. Been bothering me for years

>>340713975
Spy Hunter was on damn near every console at its release. Switch it out for the exclusive Buffy game instead>>340714338
>>340714898
The cutoff for /vr/ is Dreamcast, and Xbox came out way late in 6th gen, not retro
>>340700723
>has hundreds more games than gamecube
>no one ever calls gamecube "nogames"
heh. nice meme perception you got there kiddo.
>>340715010
Nope.
Their kill-off date is 2000.
BUT if you talk about using it as an emulator, you get a free pass.
>>340715010
No. Dreamcast is the only 6th gen console that makes the cut.
>>340715087
I already put buffy on it
>>340706728
Snoopy Flying Ace was basically the same game.
>>340714338
I liked Buffy until it turned into "Buffy either sleeps with someone or thinks about it" every episode
>>340715087
Xbox got the best version of the 3 consoles on most games.
Played the fuck out of some couch co-op Gauntlet back in the day.
>>340715215
Now switch out Spyhunter for pic related and it would be literally perfect
>inb4 Dino Crisis 3
Hmm... I need to acquire a system and mod it. How easy is it to get everything set up to play backups? I assume I'll need to buy a HDD for it.
I know this is not xbox only, but it had great version of this game.
>>340713975
so many shitty games on that list dude
>>340715347
>>340715543
Like what?
Splinter cell was so good. It literally was a better Metal Gear Solid. I couldnt fathom how a western dev made a better stealth game than MGS
>>340700467
Halo
>>340709657
everyone thought the xbox was hueg
but they all forgot about the duke
Anyone else remember these discs that came with the official xbox magazine? Awesome!
The Buffy demo is what triggered the memory for me.
>>340715215
>4 shitty racing games
lol dude
>>340715543
I am just adding whatever people want to it. I started with one someone else made
>>340715632
>>340715619
I still have memories of holding that large ass controller. Even my basketball large hands could barely use the thing.
>>340703531
had a good soundtrack, I remember the gameplay and voice acting being iffy
>>340709985
>>340715619
>>340715596
Well anything is a better stealth game than MGS. But even the best of Splinter cell can't measure up to Thief 2.
>>340715490
that version is xbox only. it was made in a different engine and has features the original doesn't (such as lean).
>>340715625
i have the first 50 or so. basically the entire life of the xbox and a little 360. they stopped doing cool things with it once the 360 came out.
>>340715661
ignore this faggot>>340715632
Dunno why you added Halo 2 though. You can play the strictly superior version on PC online still
>>340703531
it was alright, sequel was a little better
>>340715625
I remember this disc. It pissed me off because I already bought Halo.
>>340715596
>everything in this post

>>340715883
Don't you need windows vista for that? and games for windows live?
>>340715969
no but you need to fix the part where it will run in slow motion if the fps goes over 100. i can only imagine what else is wrong with it.
>>340715846
>thief 2
who?
>>340715883
>ignore this faggot
I'm a faggot because I don't like those racing games?
OK Project Gotham was good, but there is definitely better games to be put on an exclusive list - like Otogi.
But Forza? sorry, it's shit.
Outrun is no better than the original apart from it's graphics. And Rallisport games are a dime a dozen and that one is average.
If you think someone is a faggot for having a different opinion than you - you are actually the faggot.
>>340716057
Well the xbox version actually works so i'm going to leave it on there
>>340713975
Chromehounds was on the 360, can you even read?
Also it's worth noting the OG Xbox got the definitive 'Directors Cut' versions of Fatal Frame 1 & 2, even though they're multiplat people still forget that the Xbox versions had some extra content and supported 480p
>>340715878
Really never know that all thought was different was xbox had better graphics. I always like that version better to,
>>340715568
>A bunch of SEGA games

Not forget about the best version of onimusha 1.
>>340702213

>>340716261
>>340716192
Any more to add?
>>340700467
Mechassault 1 and 2
Should probably divide the chart by "must have exclusives" and "superior version" for the multiplats.
Has anyone played Thousand Land, C.A.T Cyber Attack Team and Drihoo? They're Japan exclusive games and if anyone knows moon they should try them out.
>>340716532
hell fucking yes. such a fucking good game. It fit so well on the xbox
>>340716532
It's the best version but it was too little too late imo
HERE COMES THE BOSSFuck you SEGA why did you fuck up the visuals and sounds? The arcade original looks and sounds miles better
>>340716553
I'll follow you there, dipshit.
Rent A Hero got an Xbox port, Japan only but there's an almost finished english patched version that's floating around.
>>340716579
FUUUUZIOOOONNN FRENNNZYYYYYY
>>340716792
Its funny how thats the only port of onimusha to xbox. Even onimusha 1,3 got ported to PC, so why not the xbox.

It's so weird looking at "modern combat" games from the very early 00s and late 90s, where the assumption was that the next conflict would take place in the Balkans or the Caucus region. Green camo and slavic baddies galore.

That game was fucking magical save for the stupid broken arsenals people would throw together online. I liked playing against my buddies.

I have both of these controllers in front of me right now.
I cannot imagine why. when they were designing the smaller S-controller, to rearrainge the fucking buttons.
The duke was fucking giant, sure. The s-controller isnt so small that there cant be room for start /select in the center or the black /white buttons in their original position.

How to mod? I still have my original I want to get some use out of
>>340725913
I used this guide
https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-softmod-the-original-xbox.385064/
depending on what you already have and what you're willing to spend, your milage may vary.
for the basic softmod you will probably need splinter cell, halo 2 and a usb to xbox dongle.
you'll want to replace that shitty hard drive if you want to back up games.
