Amazon.com Review

This limited edition Xbox bundle includes two Sega games, Sega GT 2002 and Jet Set Radio Future--a $100 value!

The advanced components inside Xbox make it the undisputed powerhouse among current game consoles. A 733 MHz Intel main processor and 233 MHz graphics processor from industry leader nVidia deliver photorealistic graphics in real time. A cavernous hard drive stores saved games and characters, making flimsy memory sticks obsolete. The built-in Ethernet port enables super-fast multiplayer online gaming over a broadband Internet connection. Four game-controller ports allow you and three of your buddies to play at the same time, or you can use them for other peripherals such as gamepads, light guns, voice-activated headsets, and who knows what else?

But Xbox has more going for it than fancy innards. The Xbox's Windows-based operating system is a breeze to program on, earning it grateful accolades from Electronic Arts, Infogrames, THQ, and other game producers. The less time developers spend struggling with the operating system means the more time they spend tweaking gameplay, which ultimately results in better games. And games are what it's all about.

Well, games and the fun of owning a green-glowing game console that looks like it came from Darth Vader's living room. --Mike Fehlauer ... Read more

true and false
okay, you people make no sense in speaking about system's.
here's something short and simple

XBOX is like your home computer, it will have it's up's and down's.

For the most common problem with the xbox.
dvd rom:
- games freezes up
- will not start up the system properly
- DVD-rom is filled with dust.
- laser lens is broken
If you want the system to last for few years, try not to play with the system for more than 6hours, considering that some games will actually take 48 to 100 hours to finish and yes they're very addicting.

The system does over heat but mainly from the dvd rom only. Over 10,000 console have had this problem and if you surf the net, you will be able to read about people complaints on the system.

GREAT PRICE & GREAT PACKAGE!!!
This really is a great unit and a great package, even if the included games are not your favorite. The price alone makes it worth it & you can trade or sell the games that you don't like! To Cameron (below) from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; You should only apologize for your pure ignorance (that being said in every sense of the words meaning. Oh...You do own a dictionary, don't you? It's that dusty book that is sitting on your shelf of which you could not even decipher the spelling of the title).Perhaps I should ask if you can even read?! (Let's hope that your chronically unused version of a dictionary has some pictures to look at!) You really should spend more time at gaining an education instead of playing video games (of which I am quite sure you are also inept at).
You suggest that other reviewers attend a 3rd grade English class...but I must ask why you would offer them a higher level of education than yourself? You accuse the other reviews of lowering your IQ "massively" but I must ask, "Is there a massive quantity of numerical amounts below 12?" Hmmm...what can we expect from someone who spells the words 'basically' & 'helpful' wrong (i.e.: 'basicly' & 'helpfull'). Hey, I know....you should try to get bumped up to that 3rd grade English class! (After all, how many more years can you spend in 2nd grade special ed? What's that? A 'massive' amount you say?!).
By the way, had you bothered to look at who wrote the "second review", you might (with your limited mental capacity) have noticed by whom it was written...Nubia Rodriguez from Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. M...E...X...I...C...O, you moron. Perhaps you might have heard of it? Or maybe even seen it in one of your "picture" books? You see, you asinine little "DOLT" (I am surprised you could spell that one right!) in Mexico they speak MEXICAN! The dear girl was doing her best to relay her feelings in a language which is not native to her. I would really like to see you on a Mexican forum, what with your grand education and all.
FYI...Mexico is located south of the United States of America....which is located south of Canada (with facetiousness I say, "We're all so proud to have geniuses such as you here"). I suggest you attend a 3rd grade geography class as well so that you can figure out which way South is. You see, you seem to possess upside down anatomy....it appears your head is located south of your hips and your ass is north of your shoulders (which would explain your review). That means your "vomit" should be wiped with toilet paper, you half-witted retard! HEY...Edmonton is really cold right now, so it's a good thing that your world contains "ass-hats" to keep your thinking cap warm.
P.S. There is no such thing as "intellectual stability" as you have written. But there is such a thing as having no intellect whatsoever....you are living proof of that.
P.P.S. "Self respect"?! What would you know about that? Try to get some and then learn to have respect for others.
P.P.P.S. Who helped you with the big words like "of" and "to"?

A good price. A good console. A poor choice of games.
First I would like to apologize on behalf of the above dolts. With no understanding of basic grammar, punctuation, spelling, and self respect, these tools have the audacity to write reviews that are barely legible let alone helpfull. Nobody has the time or patience to read filth such as the above. You people make me want to vomit. That second review; WOW! Now that made alot of sense. Not once when reading it did I detect a hint of intellectual stability. Maybe you should stop crying about people commenting that the Sony Playstation 2 is better than the X-Box, and go attend a third level english class. Because education is a wonderfull gift, but it's no X-Box(nice use of the late Mountain Dew advert huh?)

This review is not for the X-Box itself as the above ass-hats thought it should be. This review is for the listed X-Box Bundle. As advertised, and i quote; "Xbox Bundle Pak(another spelling mistake!) with 2 Free Games: Sega GT 2002 and JSRF." As you can plainly see this bundle includes two games. The above reviews, which is a stretch saying that, said nothing about these two games. I may be wrong, having lowered my IQ massively by reading that dribble, and they might have mentioned them. So basicly I am just going to say this "Bundle" is not bad when you think about it. Receiving the X-Box console and two games for a fair price is pretty good. Three stars because these are horrid games. Mindless dribble...

ps2 is the queen of gaming
xbox is way better than ps2 because it has so much games and the xbox live feuture kiks mager @$$ . xbox also just bought the company rare from gamcube who made tittles like:conkers bfd and perfect dark . they are all coming out for xbox and sony will be out of buisness , xbox has all the power and nothing can stop it. this the best console you will ever buy dont listen to those fools saying ps2 is better cause there just jealous

The Master Comparision
Hey, for all you gamers out there, I know it's hard to pick between a PS2 and a Xbox.
I'm not one to judge, so I guess you could
trust me (having spent many hours on both during vacation).

Firstly- PS2
-Has, obviously, many more games than Xbox.
-Many resources online or elseware for repair or questions.
-Basically everyone has one, never buy games again.
-Built in DVD player (this may appeal to many!).
-Good controller (good for people with small hands).
-Good games and plenty of them!

Secondly- Xbox
-Superior specs: about 2.5 times faster processor, 8 gig hd.
-Graphics are superior in some fields (particles, some clarity).
-This one is disputable: controller (it is, yes, bigger, and, yes, bulky, but good for big hands).
-Stability (it just looks like plutonium or something, just kidding).

So basically I summed up the basic gamer's facts.In doing so, I like the Xbox better, but as I said, it is purely a matter of choice.The PS2 excels at game quality and quanity (Squaresoft, if you're reading this, make Final Fantasy games for Xbox!!).Xbox has superior graphics and specifications.If you like simplicity and power, with plenty of variety and to-die-for quality games, the PS2 could help you.If you like die-hard ability, and some pretty good games, the Xbox might fit you.
After all, it is only a game . . .
