early XBOX games needed (not xbox360)

[skyhawk]

how are you. where can i get xbox games i mean not xbox 360 just the old ones. a couple of weeks ago i bought original ones at a street corner. the cover is written in Chinese and English, kind of imported from China/Singapore i think.

Well i constantly go to Shops like Cash Crusaders and Cash converters and i constantly see Xbox titles lying on the shelves.

If you are in Cape Town i recommend xdvd's and games in the Stadium on Main in Claremont as there are always titles there.

Otherwise post a wanted add and ask for the titles you are looking for.

Sorry for hijack, does the original xbox titles work on the xbox360?

I think you need a HD and some sort of software update to play xbox games, from what i understand not all xbox games are compatable with 360.

I stand corrected.

True.

Unless you are some kind of saint, your best bet is to get the Xbox modded and download games. It's really worth it.

so guys what do you say about old xbox games. dinkd i think you are wrong because the consoles are plenty

Does anyone know where to get an original Xbox fixed in JHB? Cause mine broke about a year ago and it's just been sitting in a closet.

nope the consoles never launched like the current 360... they were all brought in from a few stores.. the original games weren't sold here in conventional stores, only some speciality stores had them... like HerZeLeiD said.. your best bet is to get it chipped and download the games... not to mention you can load xbmc on it

Lupus.. try http://www.defcon5.co.za/ they might still be able to help you.. but i think it depends what is wrong with it, my power supply packed up on one of mine and they weren't able to source spares...

cool thanks will take a look

 

[dinkd]

otherwise there are two stores at the waterfront (ok brightwater common) lol, i think they do xbox repairs.. just not sure if they still do repairs to the old xbox tho..

 

[Lupus]

Animeworx and Zaps? They don't hey :-(

 

[dinkd]

its a problem to find spares
