Post Original Xbox, Dust collector or Door Stop
I think I have turned my Orig. Xbox on just once since purchasing the 360. However I have a very disposable nature, always looking forwards and not one to try/revisit old things (other then my retro dvd collection). Just wandering whens the last time you guys have used yours?

Tis true, tis true.

Though we are shifting to 360s eventually... :P
That's when they make nifty doorstops.

I :love9: my Big Black Box.

It gets used nearly everynight !! My Black box does more work than my 360. There are so many things that beast is capable of. I dont copy games like jeebs does .. no need to , im all legit :)

I mainly use mine as a game emulator (retro FTW) and a Media Centre (perfect for this) over my home network.

:tongue2:

Cheers !

:sign3:

Well I use mine for V8 Supercars 3 and 2, plus other racers and some shooters that simply do not play on the 360. There's a heap that are great games. I have a Halo 1st-Gen sittingf under my 360, and no, neither of them gets hot when both are running playing games.

I also have 4 other 1st-gen xbox's, all are Collectors or Limited Editions. Not a BBB in sight. 3 have never been used

Hahahaha, I just had a look through my closets and found my brothers old xbox, however I think the PSU is fried on it... might cut this one in half (horizontally), gut it, and use the two halves as dorito bowls.

Breath fresh life into it, Get a new PSU, and do a case mod on it . .There are some awesome 1st-gen xbox case mods around and they look great.
