I think the Xbox looks pretty darn cool. It's big, it's black and it has a solid, wholesome feel to it.

The controller looks too cumbersome, though.

sorry to burst your bubble, but the x-box isn't out in japan yet. it most likely won't be out until around march. just for those of you who don't know................

Nice picts. XBOX controller is the best I've ever felt. I am 6-4, so for tiny people I think it will be great for some but just good for others as feel goes. As for functional abilities it is really perfect.

Conzumah is right, XBOX will be coming to Japan on Febuary 22nd 2002.

The Xbox may not be for sale in Japan.
But it was still there, cause a friend of mine went to Japan recently.

since microsoft is an american company, it would be released here first. your friend mustve seen advertisements for it.

Like Steel Shark said the controller is great! I would have to say that it was better than the Playstation one because it seems to fit right into your hand.

Did your friend happen to go to the tokyo game show, because if they did then there certainly would have been some boxes there.

Gluk Schmuck 10-16-2001 03:55 AM
soooo...what's the UK release date then?


if you have a problem with the controller, i'm sure you'll be able to find a 3rd-party one to suit you...

My friend said that it was some kind of electronics event.
There was lots of cool stuff there like those new TV phones.
