I have XBOX!! Now what?

[DaMullet]

So I finally bit the bullet and got an XBox 360 with Kinect and everything.

Other then games, what else can I do with it and how?

From importing myself into Minecraft or give someone really jiggily bewbies, there seems to be a lot you can do with it.

So... where do I start?

 

[Iron Mal]

Watch DVD's on it? Listen to music? Screw around with avatar creation?

I would otherwise assume the main thing you'd do with n Xbox 360 would be to play games designed for the Xbox 360.

I feel sorry for your loss.
We will mourn the precious years lost at playing games and doing other meaningless things on the xbox.
My you rest in Peace, time lost that cannot be returned.

 

[synobal]

Wave your hands around and shout at it... at least that's what seems to be popular these days.

Start building your gamerscore!

Congratulations! You've spent %XBOXPrice %NationalCurrency! Now you can play Halo all day long. And at night. And that's all what XBOX gives you. Lots of Halo. And MOAR Halo. Did I remark Halo?

...


Really, man, tell me, why, WHY did you by this thing if you DON'T FRIGGIN' KNOW WHY THE HECK DO YOU NEED IT?!!!

Mabey he is simply wondering what the xbox can do besides play games.

It prints money!

OT: I 'unno, go to Metacritic and pick out some good games? Child of Eden just came out for the Kinect so I'd check it out.

 

[callfy]

First things first, get rid of the Kinect!

I noticed. But I suppose there actually IS a manual inside the XBOX box? And a website? I can't get it, really.

You know there are three Halo games on the 360? And one of them is a spin-off? Yep, that's definitely milking the franchise.

Sell it and build a gaming PC.

 

[Scizophrenic Llama]

Sell it and build a gaming PC.

I'd love to see a gaming PC that goes for around 300 - 400 that can run any upcoming games.

As for something on topic, I've heard good things about Children of Eden.

Sell it and build a gaming PC.

Heheh... uh boy.

First off, one of the reasons I got an xbox is for the kinect because my room mate has injured both of her hands and can't hold a controller. But she still loves games.

Second, I already have a high end gaming PC, Wii, DS x2, PS2, SNES, N64, and a Game Cube in storage. I have an NES but it don't work no more.

I already have a Blue Ray Player and there just wasn't enough PS3 exclusive titles that appealed to me to justify the system. Plus having my roommate unable to join me on the PS3 sucked.

So an Xbox is like one of the last on the list of systems to buy.

Which is why I'm here wondering what I can do with an xbox that I can't do with any of my other systems

My Xbox 360 actually doubles as a DVD player. It takes a bit to get the hang of using your controller as a remote, but once you've done that you're set.

Download the Kinect SDK and start modding!
This way you can make it do whatever you want it to do.
