Xbox is really cool and all, but when it comes down to all these mods why not just use your PC. It is a cheap PC though if you dont own one. 179 bucks for a system. not bad. just throw in a hard drive and mod chip and you got a pc.
yeah the xbox has a pentuim4 in it. so you are right its more pc then anything, but as far as games its better playing on there then on a pc i think.
true dat. you dont gotta use a mouse and keyboard. but you can always get a controller for your PC. you are right, though, its much better to sit on your couch and play games thru your tv. which is most likely larger than your computer monitor.
good question.
1) its small, fits under your tv
2) has cool controllers, (yeah I know they are just usb)
3) has built in TV out
4) much quieter than a computer
