I’m 16 and I’ve always loved the original Xbox. My dad is huge old game era collector and recently gave me his Xbox collection, I personally enjoy it more than the recent generation of gaming.

It's always a good idea to own older consoles like this one because they are plug and play. Unlike modern stuff now that are full of constant updates and DLC

For someone with only 26 subscribers this is an insanely high quality video well done

I remember as a 12-13 year old looking at Xbox when they first appeared at Toys R Us.  They were like Alien technology to me.  Never actually played it or held it.  One day I'll get it.  Just got a N64 for the first time ever and made a video on it.

I own 2 OG xbox consoles, including one from near launch and they still work fine all these years later
excellent console with alot of good games, its nice to go back to these older games. IMO, I find that modern gaming has taken a step in the wrong direction and find myself bored or not interested in a lot of the newer releases and this is where retro comes in and saves the day.

Better late than never dude, I have ended up owning 10 OG's and use them for all manner of things especially back in the 00's they were my media centers with xbmc. Now it's emulation and gaming powerhouses still to this day that can be hooked up to CRTs and modern flatscreens so convenient and have them hooked up all over the house and garage. Absolutely brilliant

Glad you're joining the OG Xbox club! In addition to removing the clock capacitor, also make sure to softmod and TSOP flash it so it won't turn into a brick if the hard drive dies.

It's so cool to see someone actually getting games and consoles as they were intended. To play and have fun! The speculative market really ruined game collecting for me. It was fun to see your excitement in this video.
I was an OG xbox kid back in 2003 so this was nostalgic for me.

She's a beaut. I've always wanted to play on a real OG Xbox, but the thing was never sold in my country so I pretty much just stuck to PS2 and PC back in the day.

i loved the OG xbox, one of my all time fave gaming memories ever.

I had the Game Cube and the Xbox both amazing. Missed out on basically all of 360 and xbox one era now I have a series x. Stoked!

so many nostalgic memories came flooding in lol. i remember the day we got Halo 2. xbox live was SO much fun back then.

this video randomly played after another video I was watching and really thought you were a huge YouTuber, keep up the good work

Man me and my friends had a massive blast with the og xbox, just like you we played goldeneye twisted metal and all that jazz, but nothing beat 16 player Lan parties in that Era on halo 1, was downright amazing and memories that will never fade man

I'm 12 and my brother, got me a og Xbox I love!!! I have a few games for it. Nice video man keep up, the good work.

Same tging here with PS 3 and XBOX 360. I have a PC more powerful than both together multiple times, buth i am so happy and full of joy to have them now, for the first time in my life. I missed on that whole hipe just like you did, and i understand that joy of getting t6hem. Have a lot of owessume time with it.

what i loved of the original xbox was xbox live. i got xbox live the day it came out November 15, 2002 which will be 20th anniversary soon , and i still have the same account in my xbox series x after all those years. i kept renewing my subscription since then. when xbox live shut down , we could still use our account on the new platform. my favorite game back then was moto gp and i played also mechassault. it was so cool to play on xbox live multiplayer games when it came out and be able to add friends and chat with a mic with everyone. this was really incredible and something new to me. i also remember the ring of death problem with the original xbox systems. i had a few original xbox systems that got defective like this before i got one that worked for years.

Welcome to the family. I have three of xbox.1 complete in box, 1 crystal,  and a modded black.plus a collection of 268 physical games.

Pretty awesome system, I have gone through three of them. Two the disc's stopped reading and tray stopped opening. But I still have one that works and have a ton of games for it still too 😊

great video 🔥 I would just recommend more talk on why you bought it instead of a showcase 🙏🏽
