Metal Jesus: Metal Jesus here, and I am back with Kinsey.

Kinsey: Hello, and today we are going to be talking about a buyer’s guide for the original Xbox. So that’s accessories, hardware and some of our favorite games.

Kinsey: And this guy, is the original Xbox.

Kinsey: It’s one of the first consoles that has an internal hard drive.

Metal Jesus: I believe it was a 10 GB drive, but you had like 8 GBs available to you, but actually it’s funny you just reminded me, is that I was watching a podcast where they were talking, it was the original creators of the Xbox, and one of the really interesting things is that it’s because they put a hard drive in here that games like Halo were even possible.

Kinsey: That’s crazy, yeah.
