Tony Hawk 2X is a great game as well. The enhancements to the levels are great and you can pick this game up for $20 now.

Morowind seems to be shaping up as the next A+ title for the Xbox. I still haven't bought it, but I probably will soon.

Jet Set Radio Future is excellent
DOA3 is a must for HDTV/5.1 owners

Tony Hawk 3 I have but I must have been away from skating games too long since all I did for an hour in ole then ole and then ole some more. Guess I need to read the manual before I play next time

Well, I have only had my X-box for a couple of weeks so it's hard for me to say.

I did enjoy Oddworld. The gameplay was decent/good, but the story and characters were excellent.

Jet Set Radio Future is really cool.

The NBA game is one of the best NBA games I've ever played if you are a sports nut.

Other than Halo, that's about all I've played.

Say, what's the deal with the Music ripping on AMPED? Do the ripped songs get incorporated into the game or is it like playing a CD straight thru?

The songs you rip can be played while you do your runs. Each 'soundtrack' that you create can be enabled or disabled from within the game. Neat feature, but I still can't stand the game (Gallant Pig loves it though, so rent it to see what you think).

I actually like Spiderman very much. More than the critics, apparently.

Im liking Spiderman too, it kinda got pushed aside for Resident Evil but its definitely in my top 5 XBox games. Max Payne was a blast too.

If you are asking because you are considering buying a new game, please... PLEASE do not look any further than Max Payne. It is the best Xbox game period in my opinion, and it ranks in the top 20 of all time for me, as well (it puts the PS2 version to shame-- not console bashing, just truth). The game is amazing, and I say this as a Gamecube owner that has only played and beaten the game through a sibling's console. It is not to be missed...

Other that, you can't go wrong with Madden, Tony Hawk, or NBA 2K2, although those are hardly "Xbox titles".

If you have BB, then take a strong hard look at XBL. It really is going to be great.
