Well first off note that I have recently found a new love for my gamecube and was thinking why do I have a Xbox? off the top of my head the only good games are Halo. So I like to see if anyone else can think of anything else. Also keep in mind I'm not too big on FPS or Sports [since you can get FPS & sports games on any console].

well there's star wars republic commando, but since you don't like shooters there's ninja gaiden black. thats pretty much what i kept after i got my 360. you should probably sell the xbox and get as much as you can. i sold mine last year to game crazy and i still got 115 bucks for it.

I suspose what is making kind-ofnot want to sell is because I spent a fair bit of money and time in making a good sized xbox collection, and I don't really feel like starting from strach with my gamecube and PS2.

Games like, Destroy All Humans!, Fight Night 2004, Halo 1 & 2, MechAssault (to a small degree), Ninja Gaiden, & Tenchu I can only get on Xbox and some on PS2 but I don't want to bring PS2 into it.

But is thouse roughly 7 games worth keeping my Xbox?

You meantioned a game that you have that is good enough reason to keep your Xbox and that's Fight Night 2004. I spent a lot of hours beating my friends up in that game and taking their money.

Something else you could get that's a good game is Unreal II: The Awakening and DoA 3

It is a great game, but you can get Round 2 on gamecube so it's not 2004 but it's still good. But good point.

Ninja Gaiden - Good point.
Elder Scrolls - Like I said before I don't care too much forElder Scrolls
Fable - Good point, I guess since I only dabbed in this game for a very short time and didnt really get into it.
X-Men Legends - You can get this on PS2, Xbox, or GC.
KOTOR - Good point but there are some decent Star Wars on PS2 & GC.
Grand Theft Auto - I don't likeGTA very much, plus it's on Playstation 2.
Def Jam FFNY - #1 this game looked stupid and #2 it's on other consoles.
DOA - #1 I'm really into fighters too much, and #2 DOA 2 on PS2
Mortal Kombat - Not very big on Mortal Kombat, plus I think there are some MK on PS2.
Oddworld Munchs Oddysee - Good point.
Conker Live and Reloaded - Good point.
Forza Motorsport - You can get a racing game on any console ever made. Example Playstation has Gran Turismo & Nintendo has things like Mario Kart.
Midnight Club - I lot Midnight Club is on PS2 also.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Advent Rising - I heard this game sucked, but good point I guess.
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance - Is on PS2.
Beyond Good & Evil - Is on other conesoles, I think.
Breakdown - Good point.
Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay - Looks dumb.
Deus Ex: Invisible War - Never really got into this game.
Gauntlet Dark Legacy and Seven Sorrows - You can get Gauntlet on other consoles.
Half-Life 2 - Good point.
Hitman Series - Hitman is odd, and I never really got into it but good point.
Jet Set Radio Future - Very good point.
Jade Empire - Never got into this game.
James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing - You can get Bond on a number of consoles.
Max Payne 1 & 2 - This game had a dumb story, and story is important to me.
Need for Speed Series - Like I said before you can get a racing game on any console.
Project Gotham Racing 1 & 2 - Like I said before you can get a racing game on any console.
TimeSplitters: Future Perfect - I think it's on PS2 also.
Splinter Cell Series - Good point.
Ghost Recon Series - I always hated the storys in these games.
True Crime Series - Never played them but I think it's on PS2 too.
Unreal Championship 1 & 2 - I never got to into this game.
XIII - Very good point.

I thought you said that you didn't really want to bring in games from PS2, so that kind of makes the multiplatform point moot. Also, it is important to realize that some games are more than their genre. With Forza, you said about Gran Turismo, however, if you read the reviews for it, it is supposed to be a much better game than GT, though I don't have personal knowledge. Also, recall that for the most part, the Xbox has superior graphical capabilities. And Advent Rising is much better than the review on GameSpot indicates, in my view.

PS: Max Payne had a bad story? I just got it, and I really like the film noire style of story.

Extreme list time! Here are some amazing xbox games, some multi-plat, but they are still worth keeping your xbox for!

Scrapland
Halo
Ninja Gaiden Black
Halo 2
Now I would say HL 2, but 360 has orange box and if I remeber right you have a 360.
Fable: TLC
X-men legends 1+2 - this is MUCH better on xbox, it just works better with the trigger system, and black and white for heal. More natural.
Republic Commando
Jade Empire
KOTOR
There are others, but I cannot remember them!

I was too angry to reply to the notation there, so thank you. I don't know how you can just pass Riddick by when it was a critical success...

I've read comments and user reviews of people who hated the movies, but thought the game was great. I personally thought the game was going to suck since it was based off a movie, but when I played it I was blown away. And the story is really cool. Not many games have a prison theme in which you have to break out and indulges you so well. If this game had an online multiplayer, it would've easily spanked Halo 2.

KOTOR 1 and 2, Morrowind. That should be reason enough :P

Shenmue 2 is a good reason as well

Prince of Persia 1, 2, and 3. Both Brothers in Arms. Both Full Spectrum Warriors. Chronicles of Riddick. Splinter Cell games. Are you kidding me? There are so many great titles out there for the original xbox. Why would you even consider dumping it?

Sigh. Why is it that people still assume that the game is based upon one of the movies? The game takes place in the Riddick universe, but it has nothing to do with the events that transpire in the films. The game is a prequel to the movies. Therefore, you can discard your bias based upon what you thought of the movies, though I thought they were pretty good. Anyway, how about you judge the game based on its gameplay, graphics, story elements and so forth, like any other game.
