Please post real Advice! Is a old xbox or 360 best for playing OLD xbox games?

All I want is to play Shenmue 2 again. My Xbox got stolen back in 2003 and I haven't played it since. I can buy one from gamestop for $50 or a used 360 for $130. But then I need to get component cables AND a hard drive to use the backwards compatibility. I have a samsung 1080p tv so will the 360 make Shenmue look that much better than a original Xbox? Does it really upscale the resolution? Or is the the hassle of getting a rings of death from an OLD(2007)360 not worth it?

THIS IS NOT A TROLL TOPIC, I NEED REAL ADVICE AS I AM GOING TO BUY ONE OR THE OTHER TOM!

The reason I don't just buy a 360 is I doubt I will use it for new games, I mainly want it for the backwards compatibility. To you Xbots that think this is a troll topic.

BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHICHI SHOULDBUY TO PLAY THE OLD GAMES!!!!!!!!!

The 360 upscales original xbox games to 720p, but they don't play all xbox games and some of them don't play perfectly. If you just want to play original xbox games, get an original xbox.

The thing is, the way you worded your last thread, made it come off as a troll topic.

So it's your own fault that it got locked.

Also, calling us "Xbots" is also another way to get moderated. You're not very good at this are you?

You should learn to not be so over sensitive and not reply to my thread if you have nothing to offer. This is for discussion of the plus and minus of the xbox backwards compatibility.

:lol:

"Over sensitive" and ";nothing to offer"?

#1, "Over sensitive" is probably the farthest off of where I stand in this situation.

#2, I'm trying to help you to prevent future locks of your posts. Yes, I will admit that the question in my post wasn't necessary, but it's still a legit question.

#3, Don't make silly asumptions of people and make ludicrous statements in the future. It will only make you hated. Just saying.
