Title: Collecting for the Xbox
Post by: shadowforte on January 13, 2008, 10:14:58 PM
So I think I am going to try to get all the Xbox games released in the USA. It will be a long journey, but I am up for it. I geuss I am going to get all the well know great games first, then hunt for the other titles. Anyone want to tell me some great games? So far, I have:

Half Life 2
Halo 2
KOTOR 2
Advent Rising
SSX3
Need For Speed Most Wanted
Morowind


Also, is there a list of all the the games? Plus a number? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 is extremely fun, and highly collectible. Probably one of the more sought after (and expensive) games.

You still got that Nomad available?

Our database has 1125.
I'm not sure if that is all of them or not.

This number also includes demos & variants(PH / Best of PH) but not all.

Good luck with it.


I suggest:
Burnout games
Fable Lost Chapters
FreeStyle Street Soccer
Goblin Commander
Halo
Halo 2 Map Pack
House of the Dead 3 (only if youu can get light guns)
Jade Empire LE (had extra weapons and something else vs. the standard release)
Kung Fu Chaos
Metal Slug games
Mortal Kombat games
Need for Speed games
Psi-Ops
Soul Calibur


Just pulled those out of some of the games i currently own.

I believe the number sits somewhere around 789 or so regular releases not including Platinum hits or demos, and I'm not sure that includes 2007. :P

Here's a few that depending on where you live may be hard to find. These are based on talking with collectors, reading forums and ebay prices:

AirForce Delta Storm
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II
House of the Dead III
Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast
Samurai Shodown V
Shattered Union
Sniper Elite
Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy
Steel Battalion
ToeJam & Earl III: Mission to Earth
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory [limited Collector's Edition]
Ultra Bust-a-Move

YMMV however, as some people find these dirt cheap, others search in a 500 mile radius and find nothing. But if you see any of these cheap, don't hesitate. I'm sure others will pipe in with a few i've forgotten. There's a guy at DP who has a complete US set, it was around 790 or so.

For me 2007 was dubbed "Year of the Atari 5200."

I managed to find one and get 26 games, 23 which are CIB except for those dual-controller molds for Robotron and Space Dungeon (to name the ones I have). It's pretty funny though because in 2006 I vowed to purchase an Xbox and begin work on it however the Playstation2 (Fall 2006 purchase) and Game Cube (Christmas 2003 purchase) have been keeping me busy for that generation and adding that system so soon would certain bring distruction to my collecting.

Well, that last part is a lie but I do have 2 Xbox games (Black and Techmo Collection) to start with and would need Halo 1 & 2 just for my dad as I bought GTA 3 for the PS2. But there are tons of games I'd like to get for the system and there's a lot of fun to be had, all in good time.

In addition to the games above, some other great titles:

Stubbs the Zombie
Metal Wolf Chaos (Japanese Import)
Silent Scope (I enjoyed this, but it worked well on my tv, actual mileage may vary)
Psychonauts
D&D Heroes
Hunter (there are 2 or 3 in the series)

I know I'm missing quite a few, but these are all standouts for me.
