1) Is the price for the X-Box as huge as the X-Box itself?

2) Can I fit it in a small house? A large house? A mansion???

3) What can I kill with the X-Box controller? (I hear if you wanted to you could crush an entire continent with the X-Box itself)

4) What's the best game to get with the X-Box?

5) When I buy it, do I have to hire several forklifts, a crane, and that Army twin rotor cargo helicopter???

It's exactly the same price as the PS2.

2) Can I fit it in a small house? A large house? A mansion???

It makes an excellent coffee table if you're short on space. (Really, it's no bigger than a VCR.)

3) What can I kill with the X-Box controller? (I hear if you wanted to you could crush an entire continent with the X-Box itself)

Get the S-type controller. As the original controller was a horrible monstrosity designed to be used comfortably by Shaquile O'Neal and Sasquatch, it was redesigned and made actually rather comfortable. This is the S-type.

4) What's the best game to get with the X-Box?

Halo is my top reccomendation, but it has a far better game library than it's generally given credit for. And as it's graphically far more powerful than the PS2 in terms of hardware, cross-console games are generally prettier on the X-box.

5) When I buy it, do I have to hire several forklifts, a crane, and that Army twin rotor cargo helicopter???

Nah, a U-haul ought to be good enough.

Good times, good times.

The S controller can only take out small armies.

-HALO: This is pretty much required. You just can't have an XBox without HALO, and until the PC release, you couldn't have HALO without an XBox. Bonus points if HALO comes with the XBox.

-Amped: Never tried it, but apparently my bro likes it. Give 'er a try.

-MechAssault: A good game for those of us who like explosions and giant fighting robots. However, the single player game is short and easy once you get to the heavier 'Mechs. Also, there's less advantage to taking a light, fast 'Mech. Hell, just take the Ragnarok. That lava gun is *POWERFUL*. Definitely a rental game, unless you have Live.

-D&D Heroes: Got friends? 'Course ya do! They into games? 'Course they are! Get 3 of them and you together and beat the shit outta things. Multiplayer, while not actually required, may as well be.

-BGDA2: This one's more for the single-player experience, but a friend can join in too. Basically, DA1 improved, just like any sequel worth anyone's money. The new item crafting system is especially cool, but to get the best stuff (+5 armor with +1AC/piece of armor each, +5 Coldfire weapons, +15 boots of something-thingy, +15 amulet of whatever, +15 rings of whatchamacallit) you need to take the same character through multiple difficulties.

-CoN: This was intended to be something of a comedy option mixed with wishful thinking. I think the game would have a large enough audience on the XBox that it would be worth it to 'port, but perhaps Sony thinks differently. Ah well.

-BGDA1: Get this one if you don't have the PS2 version.

-Gauntlet: Dark Legacy: Same here.

i don't know they didn't really change anything other than the graphics.

Second, any ongoing joke that gets taken this far irritates me, therefore...
