    Best Original Xbox titles?

    Hey guys I've been having a craving lately to go back and play some original Xbox titles as I never had the console back in the day. There are some available from XBL but most of the time I find I can get physical backwards compatible versions from ebay for much less.

    I picked up Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge and Blinx: The Time Sweeper and they are really cool. I also have Jade Empire, Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows (also on PS2 but it was dirt cheap so I thought why not) and Panzer Dragoon Orta on the way from ebay.

    I was just wondering what you guys thought to be the best original xbox titles. From my research so far there seems to be tonnes of exclusives (probably more than 360 lol). My good friend used to have an xbox so I've played all of the obvious games like Halo and Fable at his place, and if some titles you guys recommend aren't b/c a local second hand top has an original xbox for $29 I can pick up anytime ><

    So what do YOU guys think are the top tier games/must plays?

    I've heard a lot about it actually, but would I had to have played the first one to understand the story? Or would it be an in-game refresher/simple online run down?

    No. In fact I have yet to play the first one, yet the second was very enjoyable with its own very engaging story. Plus the jobs, and mini games add to an already exciting game.

    James Bond: Nightfire has offered countless hours of enjoyment.

    I'll have to go look through my collection, its been ages since I even looked.

    Goodness. I'll have to get back to my other house and pull out the box of games I had then. Too many to list, and then decide which was better.

    I've heard fantastic things about those games Matrix, bit on the pricey side (as everything is here Y_Y) but they are definitely on my radar

    Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory was my primary Xbox game and what I personally still consider to be the best Splinter Cell game available.

    Splint cell- let's admit that game was hard!!
    Wwf raw- first wrestling game where you could use own music
    Forza- again use own music
    Fable-was so much better than fable 2
    Blinx the time sweeper- LOVED that game.

    Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was really, really solid. Not the best, but worth a mention. Anyone here played it (or the recent HD port to PS3)? Wouldn't you agree?

    Also, don't forget about Conker's bad fur day

    Okay cool, I will never played a gauntlet before just about to try Seven sorrows now, but I hear it's the least like a traditional Gauntlet game

    Bear in mind it's also sequel to the longest journey a PC game from the 90s.
