XBox Morning After

So we had a couple of XBox threads yesterday discussing people trying to find the machines and all that fun, Now that a bunch of people got to take home the machine last night and give it a whirl, what do you think? Please only people who actually got a chance to play or see first hand the machine in action share. Nitwits who troll with the whole "XBox sucks compared to..." stuff will just be removed.

I got to check out some more Halo, Dead or Alive 3, and Shrek yesterday evening... my quick summary:

Halo - impressing me more and more.
DOA3 - Really pretty, takes a long time to really digest a fighting game though. Skin tones sucked.
Shrek - Yawn...

Well, I got a chance too "see" Halo last night at a friends, I would have played but the whore hogged it all night. I have to say I am honestly thinking about bouncing a check just to get it. :)

All of the people saying the graphics aren't all that and a bag of chips are high, even my friend the PS2 fanboy was highly impressed with them. As a side note, the Xbox does seem a lot louder than the PS2, not like a jet engine but you can definately hear it "warming up".
