I'm Officially an X-Boxer
Well it took getting up at 5:00 a.m. and trekking down to the local Best Buy (I was 19th on line) but I am now an official owner of the X-Box.
After reading all of your reviews and personal opinions, I picked up DOA3 and Madden 2002. I'm only into sports and fighting games and those two seem to be the best ones out there right now. I can always rent NFL Fever (It's always in). I'm still trying to decide if I should pick up NBA Live 2002 or wait for NBA2K2 next year.
Any thoughts?

Based on what's already been released on the other systems, I can't imagine NBA 2k2 NOT dominating Live on the Xbox.
Visual Concepts is without a doubt the best basketball game developer on the planet.

I'm hearing your comments out there and they're appreciated.
I'm so in looooove with the NBA Live series that even on an off year (read as NBA Live 2000 on PS1) I still continued to play. I have to admit I was blown away with NBA 2K when it arrived on Dreamcast.
I don't know. For a new X-Boxer like myself January seems so far away.
Back to DOA3...

Congrats! I didn't know if anyone would nab one today just on the fact they could have been soldout. Glad to hear that wasn't the case.
There's another basketball game coming out for XBox that will only be on XBox called "NBA Inside Drive".
Dunno if it'll be good, but nice to have another game to choose from.

Thats cool, I hope to get one in time. I went to Best Buy this morning for the good deals, and I saw a pile of XBOXs. Then I go to Circuit City for about a half an hour, go back to Best Buy and they were gone. They must have sold like 40 at a small town Best Buy today!!!!

You might at least rent it and see if you like it.
