Games will definately be produce for the current XBOX but at a decreasing rate. Most game developers will eventually shift to produce games for a newer console which in this case is the XBOX 360

What kind of games do you like? For all around general kicka$$ games, refer to Metacritic:

Three of my top favourite games on the Xbox, thumbup.gif "Panzer Dragoon Orta" might be a little hard to get it now thought.

just buy in, and when its out dated, you can mod it with linux os and turn it into a file server or a bittorrent download host. try google "linux xbox" and you'll know what i mean.

An Xbox with Linux can be a full desktop computer with mouse and keyboard, a web/email box connected to TV, a server or router or a node in a cluster. You can either dual-boot or use Linux only; in the latter case, you can replace both IDE devices. And yes, you can connect the Xbox to a VGA monitor.

Price of Xbox's won't drop further than they are now for at least 3-6 months. The PS2 is still selling at about 700RM, and I don't see the Xbx dropping below that mark.

People who are thinking of getting a 360 aren't thinking of getting an Xbox-not the same market.
