    Question When did you buy Xbox?

    I remember when I bought the first issue of XBM in November and the other mag with it. I also remember buying Xbox for 299.99+6% I was so happy. How about anyone else did they buy Xbox when it first came out?

    If I remember right, it was the day after it came out. Halo, Project Gotham Racing, and 3 other controllers. It seems so long ago. BTW, over a year of owning an Xbox, and I've had no malfunctions, or dirty disk errors.

    I bought my Xbox right before Christmas of 2001 along with Dead or Alive 3 & Halo.

    Da experience was'nt as exciting as when I was in line for my Sega Dreamcast at Midnight back on 9/9/99 when I also copped Sonic Adventure, NFL2K, Ready 2 Rumble, & Soul Calibur.
    But none da less, im happy with my purchase.

    Lucky. I bought my first one the first day with replacement plan. A year later it took a dump so I got my second one in late november. That one took a dump and got a third one in Jan. No problems YET.

    You couldnt have said it any better. Granted, I was blown away by halo. But not as much when I first popped in NFL2K and Ready 2 Rumble. WOW.

    I got it for Christmas 2001, about a month after it came out. I got it with Oddworld and Amped. I bought Halo a few months later, after renting it first. The graphics and games were amazing and I knew I would be dedicated to this console for years!

    The one I am currently using is a Launch Box, the one I had before it I bought in Febuary of last year, died right after the limited warrantee. The one I have now used to be my sisters, but she gave it to me for my bday (today) with all her games both because she never plays and because mine broke and I'm too broke to get a new one. ROCK ON SIS!!!

    I got mine on Launch day after spending 14 hours of camping overnight just so I could be first in line to get one I bought Halo and PGR one week before the launch. I bought Amped one week after launch.

    I still play Halo practically every other day...and Amped I play atleast once a week. PGR...well, I haven't touched it in several months.

    March of 2002. I finally played enough of my PS2 and gave it to my son. Went out and got the Xbox and the first game I had was Rallisport Challenge. I dont care for Halo at all so it never entered my Xbox until my brother brought it over to play. I think I have played Halo twice total in my Xbox life...LOL..No thanks, I'll take the sports games.
