Hello all, glad to see this is overall a chill place.

As stated I am a long time gamer, a competitive one at that. I play mainly Fighting games as my competitive genre of choice (Tekken, SoulCalibur, StreetFighter, GuiltyGear) and I am a pretty active game collector.

I'm mainly interested in talking about the Original Xbox (I system I felt was very underrated historically), collecting for it (I am very close to having a complete domestic collection) and the games I loved to play on it. But also have a lot of interest in following the progress of the XBone, as it sounds intriguing but has nothing yet that really wows me. I hope some people here will shed some light on why it's so sought after, aside from the "new tech-need it now" types that just buy it to have it.

My favorite (non-fighting, because I love most fighters automatically :P) games for the Xboxes so far-

Original:
Metal Wolf Chaos
Phantom Dust
SW: KotOR 1 & 2
Jade Empire
Syberia 2
Halo
Crimson Skies
Grabbed By Ghoulies
Advent Rising
Jedi Outcast

360:
Mass Effect 1-3
Culdcept Saga
Rainbow Six Vegas 1 & 2
Blue Dragon
Dead Rising 1 & 2
Catherine
Bayonetta
COD MW 1 & 2 (3 kinda sucked imo)
Death Smiles

Games I look forward to on XBone:
Dead Rising 3
- any good non-Killer Instinct Fighting game :P


Nice to meet everyone, and I hope to meet some fellow Xbox collectors!!
