Xbox Live may change my buying habits

Post by pk500 »

Seriously, guys. This service is so damn good in beta that I may not buy titles without Xbox Live access unless it´s something I really, really want, such as Colin McRae Rally.
<BR>
<BR>For example, I´m thinking of buying Ghost Recon instead of Splinter Cell because Ghost Recon is online and Splinter Cell isn´t.
<BR>
<BR>And in cases where the games are equally good or fun, such as NBA 2K3 and NBA Live 2003, in my opinion, the game with Xbox Live compatibility will get the nod.
<BR>
<BR>I´m mucho, mucho impressed with Xbox Live so far, even in its beta form. I hope to have first impressions for DSP by the end of the weekend.
<BR>
<BR>Take care,
<BR>PK

<BR>No doubt, dude. I fear for my win-loss record playing against you, as I´m pretty lousy at both games. But I´m up for it!
<BR>
<BR>Now, Moto GP Online? Any time, any place, bro! <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">
<BR>
<BR>Unreal Championship also looks to be incredible online, as do NHL 2K3, Ghost Recon ... man, it´s a good time to be a gamer.

<BR>Take care,

Hearing all this hype about online gaming with the XBOX just may get me to swi ....
<BR>
<BR>Wait, what am I saying? We now return you to the regularly scheduled party-line PS2 owner statement.
<BR>
<BR>I have too many systems as it is. I like my PS2 even though it prevents me from beat PK in hockey, racing games and football games like I did on the DC <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">.
<BR>
<BR>Actually XBOX Live sounds really cool. I know a lot of the guys I play online in PS2 games are really torn over which way to go in these console wars. I just hope some of them stay on this side of the pond so I can play some online games against quality opponents too.
