Edit: It turns out I am not perfect and have holes in my knowledge. Games that are wrongly categorized are shifted over to the other list, but with a strikethrough to indicate a change, to preserve my original thoughts.

I was thinking about XBOX and its future, and somehow I got tangled in history and what the brand recognition is. This is the end result of my thoughts.
Well, this is my personal list of what I think of. So yes, I am sure there are games you associate with the brand which I don’t think of. Now you mention it, I saw Blinx, but it never got the attention and brand connection in my experience. I really should try it out someday.
They’re emulatable on Xemu. I just replayed the second one and had an absolute blast playing it again.
In the sequel you can customize your own character, build your own teams, and equip them with different weapons and gear. It’s just a fun game.
