Not to mention, Jet Set Radio Future (another Xbox exclusive) looks like a blast

There's nothing wrong with the system per se, as in there's nothing like "it makes you sick after 5 minutes of play". The rest is basically personal preference, so one can't really say it's a bad console, just that they don't like it :P

(For the record, I don't like it. So I'm definitely not saying that to defend it haha)

Good system. So many weekends doing Halo LAN parties with it. Had a few good exclusives and I liked it for the most part other than the big 'ole "Duke" controller. The S one was way better. I actually picked up one awhile back at a thrift shop or flea market I believe. Some day I'd love to do an old school Xbox original Halo LAN party again lol No shields, magnums on, no time limit, Sidewinder and Blood Gulch CTF. Hours were spent on those maps lol

It's a highly underrated console since most people saw Halo and a select few other games and completely ignored the rest of its great library of games. I personally prefer it to the Gamecube and that is saying quite a bit. I highly recommend it, especially if you plan to collect for it. It's still insanely cheap to get games for aside from a few titles.

But nothing is wrong with it, it's an excellent system all around.

Mostly, the complaint is - controller is too bulky, and not enough Japanese role playing games. Neither of which are a problem for me with the S controller in hand. IMO, it was the best Xbox because it had personality. It actually has a lot of games that aren't on PS2 or GC, there were at least a couple of exclusives in every genre. It received a number of games ported from PC, which nowadays you probably couldn't find or run without buying on Steam.

There's also a little bit of lingering resentment there from Sega fans (not me) and Sony fans, mostly for being the new kid on the block and catering to a western audience.
