    Yeah 50p to a few quid here and there, still look excellent on a plasma too! Been rinsing OG Outrun 2. Pretty much everything is on my list it's a goldmine!, feels very modern compared to PS2.

      I thought that too. PS2 is janky as hell. Xbox is utterly playable and looks great.

        Yeah, OG Xbox games just look a bit low-res and rough around the edges, but still attractive. I use mine in 480p through the HDMI adapter made by Pound.

        Other reccomendations:

        RalliSport 2
        Powerdrome
        Quantum Redshift
        Serious Sam and Second Encounter
        House of the Dead III
        Defender
        Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance

          You’re missing Panzer Dragoon Orta, JSRF, Shenmue 2 and Soul Calibur 2.

            Oh and GTA San Andreas.

              Onimusha and Silent Hill 2... okay, not exclusives, but classics of the era.

                Was KOTOR mentioned?

                  Stubbs the Zombie is a fun game with a sense of humour. Not cheap though.

                      A really good game that's full of imagination and charm. The graphics are some of the most attractive on the OG Xbox.

                        Payday here which means going for a supermarket sweep style shopping spree through the halls of amazon japan. Managed to get nearly every release of beatmania brand new & sealed, refused to pay 26,000 yen for a sealed 6th mix so i got that one off ebay as a used copy but even used it was pretty expensive at £35. Apart from the best hits version i now have all of the ps1 library. Not sure wether to get best hits as it's just content from the other games condensed into one disk i doubt it has any unique features compared to just playing the others.

                        DJ station pro controller


                        Plus various mixes

                          Very nice! While I don’t find earlier Beatmania as exciting as IIDX I’m certain you’ll be having a lot of fun enjoying the songs on all those mixes. Nice get with the DJ Station Pro too, very nice controller.

                            Alternatively, the more time you spend with 5 key, when you step up to IIDX the more it'll blow your mind.

                              Compared to IIdx they do look pretty primitive, hoping to hone my skills on a easier 5 button setup till I’m able to chart read using muscle memory alone then i’ll Decide wether to get the complete IIdx library for ps2. It’s quite a financial investment so I need to think it over properly.

                              It’s kind of nice having most of the bemani music series in my collection. Shamefully my switch hasn’t been touched in months since I started getting into ps1 again. Combined with arcade club practise on the real thing it’s been a blast.

                                I barely use my Switch or the Sony XG90 I just paid a lot for. It’s my little Sony MSX monitor that sees use lol
