When talking about Fallout Brotherhood of Steel, I was referring to Diablo’s real time combat. I know Fallout 1 & 2 were top down / isometric games. I should have explained that better. 👍
You are damaging your game cases by stacking them that high jusy so you know
Mr Metal Jesus Rocks Thank you for thes video can you macke a video about (ps2 )Exclusive games 💓🥰
You said that SSX On Tour on the Original Xbox is an amazing version, but you don’t have the best version of the game, and the best version of SSX On Tour is on the Nintendo GameCube.
@Big Billy only for the thumbnail. Normally they are vertical in the bookcase

I’m one of the developers on Black. It was fun to work on that at the time, although hard work! We did a lot of optimisation. I think it looked good on PS2, but Xbox was the definitive place to play it.
Thanks for showing some footage from Freedom Fighters and Breakdown, I loved both of those games!
Thanks so much for the effort you put in. I still play it on occasion on my Series X.
Black was a good game I have the supposed sequel bodycount but I haven't played most of it. Thanks for all the work on black. I felt the premises in call of duty black ops 1 interrogation was very similar to black.
Black was very cool
First time I played Black it was so graphicly impressive I thought it was a 360 game somehow crammed onto the OG Xbox
Black was a game that everyone I knew played. It was an experience when it first came out.
Original Xbox is probably my favorite retro console of all time, so many good memories.
I always appreciate the effort you put in with capturing gameplay. Makes such a difference imo
Not gonna lie, it's a TON of work to capture all the footage...but also a joy to spend a week doing it, so I can't complain.
@@MetalJesusRocks mech assault 2 final boss is such a difficulty jump
@@MetalJesusRocks And you get to actually replay some games you might've not gotten to. Ultimately it must be fun even if it's time consuming and maybe tedious at times?
@@MetalJesusRockswhat mods besides ssd for hdd can I do to my xbox one og and still be able to play online
Nothing hack no cheats just like fan mods possible overclock ect type stuff
Very true the additions of the gameplay let me know if I wanna buy it an try ut
It was mind blowing being able to rip your CD’s to your original Xbox hard drive and play music while gaming. My friends and I had a blast playing Tiger Woods PGA tour 2004 while listening to Static-X 😂
Right!!! Mine with my friends was Counter-Strike while listening to Limp Bizkit 😂
This video makes me think about all those hours with my friends playing Halo with linked up Xbox's in multiple rooms. Good times!
Love collecting for the OG Xbox. The first system I bought with my own money.
This couldn't have been timed any better, I've just been playing my Xbox all day today for the first time in months! TimeSplitters 2, Project Gotham Racing, OutRun 2006, 25 To Life and Battlefield 2 Modern Combat were my picks of the day. And now I'll have many more games to seek out in the near future! 🙏
can't wait for TimeSplitters Rewind to drop its beta later this year, a handful of devs have been working on remaking the game from the ground up the past almost 10 years and are making super good progress. My favorite game of the xbox generation was TS2.
Jade Empire is an EXCELLENT game that everyone should play. Thank you for putting some light on it!
I thought he was Weird Al
LETS GOOOO The OG Xbox is making a HARD COMEBACK recently!! I LOVE this console so much.
This guy knows! 👆 😍
Ditto my dude! You can get out of my head now aha
DamnitJeff, who told you to leave your channel?!
You have an awesome channel btw. Looking forward to the 3DS vid!
Got it
Man. This video made my morning. I am a big fan of OG Xbox. What a system. Loved playing my music while playing video games. Insane.
Hate when people bust out the "just open spotify on your phone/in the background" line. It's just not the same. The in-game custom soundtracks were simply unmatched.
Yeh was a awesome feature
I love 007:Nightfire, M.J!! Thank you for giving it big credit, here! That’s one of my all time favorite’s. So many hours and snow days spent playing with my family !
I have a quesrion what is your favorite bond girl?
@@calebpribyl5152 Honey Ryder
@@Howard007
I find this charecter named xenia onatopp and the actrecss that played jinx (halle berry) to be absolutly beautiful!
Also good choice!
Used to love Multiplayer on the XBOX with these games. I could swear one of the James Bond games had a fat dude in a towel as a selectable character, but I can't remember which game it was.
Don't love me quietly!
Yes! glad to see an updated OG Xbox video. You inspired me to collect for this console a few years ago. My collection is currently at about 90 titles!! Thanks for the video 🤘
That's awesome!
Your videos are great for keeping the grandpa consoles alive, and giving us some nostalgia packaged in one video! Cheers mjr! 🎉☕
Glad you like them!
The Punisher is such an awesome game, I can understand why you got to have 2 copies!
Yeah, funny how I do have a handful of duplicates over the years. Doesn't hurt to have backups 👍
*one of my favorite games on Xbox I use to play the hell out of the Punisher game and manhunt lol* 😂😂😂
Not sure if you have these but I'd recommend adding the following to your collection.
NBA street volume 2 and NHL Hitz(any of them). These are very arcadey sports games. I'm not much of a sports fan at all but I have a blast with these. They also both have wicked soundtracks
Def Jam fight for New York. It's a bit on the pricey end but it's one of the most unique fighters. It's fairly heavily wrestling inspired and made by Aki( the devs of all the great N64 wrestling games)
Urban chaos riot response: before Rocksteady became world renowned for their Arkham games they made this little FPS gem. What seperates it from most other shooters is it's amazing riot shield.
Advent rising: a very ambitious albeit buggy third person shooter. It has a very interesting aiming mechanic that uses a flick of the thumbstick to lock on.
Hulk ultimate destruction: probably my favorite superhero game of all time and the best version is on Xbox
Gunvalkyrie: another Sega exclusive with a very quirky control scheme that becomes a blast once you get used to it
Nightmare before Christmas Oogies revenge: a really odd licensed game that is surprisingly well polished for a budget title.
Tony hawk pro skater 2x: it has some exclusives over other versions of the game and includes THPS 1 levels as well.
Metal slug 3: It isn't just a straight arcade port and has a couple exclusives not found anywhere else
I have Def Jam: Fight For NY and Tony Hawk 2X, they're both pretty good but I need to play them more. Been keen to get Urban Chaos for a few years. I'll keep a note of these recommendations 😁
Core memories activated
Worth noting that Oogie's revenge is a DmC clone, right down to being published by capcom. And also pretty collectable now.
I LOVE collecting for the original Xbox still. Such a quick and good way to visit a lot of games from the early 2000s in a great version.
Darkwatch was an absolute blast to play. I had my eye on it since the very beginning and bought it for the Xbox day 1. An absolute hidden gem. Really wish it would get a remaster today, I mean way less popular games have gotten remasters than no one asked for. Darkwatch on the other hand would be loved by many even today.
I remember trying it on a demo disc back in the day and was blown away. I knew I had to eventually buy it when I had enough money to afford it
This is true. Darkwatch rules. I had it on PS2, but we'd have so much fun with the split-screen deathmatch. Singleplayer was awesome too
Yeah Darkwatch is really fun and the controls are closer to the modern shooter controller configuration so it’s really easy to go back and play. It’s a pretty good looking game for the time and if you have a modded Xbox, you can play it in 480p.
I would love it if Dark Watch came back man, a remaster would make many people's day and also sell better too, not to mention more recently a game that had a similar setting vibes to Dark Watch being Evil West where it's third person Doom and you go out in a Western setting brutally taking out demons and monsters in the most Boomer Shooter way given, as in Rip and Tear, either way the fact that a new game got made with some possible inspiration from the Cult Classic FPS does give some hope a remaster might be on the horizon.
Honest truth I’ve never heard of it till now , maybe just was during my time away from gaming I guess , I love that I can tell it’s brought back so many good memories for you , crazy how certain games can really take you back to exact moments in time n remind you even of ppl you may not see now isn’t it.
I love these kinds of videos. Aside from your enthusiasm and passion, I can find some hidden gems. The fact that many of these games can be played on the Xbox One or the Xbox Series X with higher frame rates and resolution in many cases is another bonus.
Yep! I should have mentioned the Xbox One/Series X support when available.
@@MetalJesusRocks I just got myself an Xbox Series X which is hooked up to my gaming monitor which has a 165hz refresh rate.
I believe only 61 original Xbox games are backward compatible, which isn’t that many.
This whole Video was nostalgia overload for me. A friend and I used to play Hunter: The Reckoning in coop multiple times with every character in the game, night after night while eating doritos and drinking coke. Good times!
Good times. Bought it with this Buffy the vampire game.
The cutscenes of the Futurama game are included as a bonus episode on the season 1 DVDs.
Also, OG Tron composer Wendy Carlos did the soundtrack for the Tron 2.0 game (and Bruce Boxleitner and Cindy Morgan are in it), so it feels a lot more like a sequel to to the original Tron than legacy did. To me, anyway.
That's awesome! I've modded a really nice OG Xbox and loaded the entire original North American library on to it. It's pretty amazing!
was that east to do? ive got 3 consoles around and was thinking of modding one
@@AaronDavis057 It's pretty easy. Just look up the Pence tutorial. He also sells them fully modded.
Every time I see a new MJR video posted I get a little spring in my step. I know I'm about to get a healthy dose of positivity and it just brightens my day!
Hey, man! Your collection is awesome. Thanks for bringind OG XBOX games to the topic. You also absolutely need to add midnight 2 and 3 dub edition remix to your collection, cuz it is THE console to play those. PS2 more on a sluggish fps side, especially on midnight 3.
The Serious Sam games are very fun, people should check those out!
I know you do play all of these on the console itself and these are collector videos, but I just want to let you know that these types of videos you do are PERFECT for doing research for emulation and which games to bother downloading. Your collections are just fun games or at least ones with redeeming qualities, no bullshit, show us the game, good basic info and opinion. Helps build out my collection for my Steam Deck. Honestly, big thanks.
Always good to see a new MJ vid - love that you keep making these!
Good old fashioned MJR content, I love it.
Glad you enjoy it!
Love these throwback videos. Takes me back in time. As you said, Need For Speed Underground series was so good. Such a good platform. A lot of these games still look good today in my opinion.
Love this video MJR. Lot of love for this era of games and especially the OG Xbox.
Your OG Xbox Collection is amazing!
Can't thank you enough for sharing your collections and for all the time it takes to do so. Appreciate you MJR! 🔥🤘🏻
I love the original Xbox! Mechassault 2 is great.
I'm raging I didn't know the majority of these games were even out when I had the original Xbox. I definitely want to start collecting for this again
Glad you showed some love to Escape from Butcher Bay. I absolutely love that game!!!
I love you and your channel! thank you for existing in my generation your content is too good.
Wow, thank you!
What a cool collection of games.
Yessir ! I love my OG Xbox collection. I have the black and crystal clear ones, with approximately 195 games.
man you are my favorite youtuber, all your vids are so fun to watch and you put so much work into making them a joy to watch. another banger!
Breakdown is amazing. It's FPS immersion is on another level.
First game I remember seeing you own legs in it.
@@Groglor Haha, you know what? I think I thought the same thing, and considering I have cerebral palsy, that was a huge deal for me.
WOAH!!! That’s an insane amount of games, so cool. Obviously loved Halo, GTA and Fable. That sucks about the stickers that won’t come off though 😢
Yeah, Microsoft did that so employees couldn't resell them...but I don't think that stopped them either LOL
I wouldn't personally remove them, it's almost like a special version. But if you do, I've found out that IPA (isopropyl alcohol) is the best for removing stickers from these plastic Xbox game cases. Just take the paper sleeve, manual and disc out before using it, so they don't get damaged.
As a wise man once said:
The sticker makes it sicker,
me personally I like a sticker. It shows where it's been.e.g blockbuster or the old price from a shop that doesn't exist anymore.
That Buffy game was so good, that, Ninja Gaiden and Morrowwind were my three favorite games on that system.
Any new collectors check out the clock capacitor issue, other wise this is still a great system to collect for and pretty cheap.
Great collection, and a great system to collect for! The prices are still mostly decent. Greetings from a fellow OG Xbox collector, I'm sitting on 660 games at the moment.
I think if i was to start collecting it's the system I'd start with
I love the Xbox systems and games. One of the best RPG's on the original Xbox was Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. I also finally after waiting for 2 years just purchased the Xbox Series X. Would love to see more videos on the current system in the future. Thanks for the video!
I loved Freedom Fighters. The multiplayer was so much fun too
The og xbox is the console I had in that generation. Its library is awesome and the 3rd party games look and play the best on it. A very underrated console.
I freaking LOVE the suffering games! So much fun and a cool idea for character development.
Yep one of my favourite games of all time, especially the second one, probably replayed it at least 5-6 times back in the day
Yeah those games deserve more love, just the problem being under Midway that got absorbed into WB which never really took full advantage of the fact they own the entire IP library and Catalogue of Midway, let alone everything else WB owns, other than Mortal Kombat which WB has been milking quite dry since the revival they did back in 2011, WB might do more with the Midway IPs if they had new management or is convinced there's potential in what they have is currently dormant.
My favorite FPS besides halo was oddworld Strangers Wrath. Using live ammo was unique and added a twist most FPS shooters didn't have. I like games where you have ammo that does all the work for you like the little fuzzles in Strangers Wrath or the little robots that fight for you in Ratchet and Clank.
Brute Force, Fusion Frenzy, Halo and Halo 2, Burnout 3: Takedown, Pariah, Black, Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects, and so many other great titles! I'll always love OG Xbox.
Your og Xbox collection is awesome dude!
Thanks!
Did I miss Morrowind in the video? Great job with your collection and the way you share it with us in these videos!!! ❤
Hey mjr, I will be moving soon, and I have a sealed battalion wars big box variant that includes the controller and game. I’d like it to go to a good home. If interested lmk, only catch is that I’m not willing to ship since the box is so massive and would probably get damaged during transit. I’m in central Cali
Yeeeees!!!
Love these collection summaries you do. Fantastic start to the year, man🙏
You're probably my favorite content i get on youtube🙏
Never owned an original Xbox but I like watching your videos. Cool collection dude.
I appreciate it!
Man, Xbox had so many good games! I was a few years late to the party, but when I got it, I easily found myself playing it more than the PS2, and that momentum just carried on when I got the 360 at launch. I'm surprised that I actually have a collection for a console that's larger than yours, lol. I wanted to go for a full US Xbox collection at one point, but after several failed attempts to score Steel Battalion, all hope fell through once that game eclipsed the $600 mark complete (last time I tried, I got outbid last second for a still sealed box at just over $480 - got beat by less than $2!!! 😩) Anyway, I still get games from time to time when I discover one I don't have yet.
A few things: if you like the Buffy game then check out Indiana Jones And The Emperor’s Tomb from the same developer…I think they only created maybe 10 games or so. Also, I’d think that the Fatal Frame games would have been right up your alley. Oh, and that’s a killer Michael Schenker Group album, I’m a big fan.
I actually only bought my original Xbox this year. Despite no nostalgia (I'd gone with PS2 and GameCube in that era) I've been thoroughly enjoying it, and have become surprisingly attached to it.
I wish I had my Xbox again, but it got taken up in the alien spaceship when I got abducted and they didn't give it back to me when I was released.
I have all the original Xbox games but I don’t play on that console anymore the only way I’ll play those is if Microsoft added achievements
What’s wrong faker you sound salty
What’s wrong you sound salty
I agree he is salty no thanks nobody wants a PS5 from you
Nobody is going to contact you for a PS5 😂
I don’t think he plays for achievements he’s a collector buys just every game he sees even if their trash
Almost there, Share this guy. Mention this channel in groups, Let's get him to 1million subs!!!!
I appreciate the time it toke for you to pull all that out and put it back just for this video! :)
Voodoo Vince was a cool character. Still have that game. Mechassault 1 & 2 are both still really enjoyable in 2023.
Yep. MA2: Lonewolf is so good.
Jade Empire is my favorite xbox exclusive game by far, and it is backwards combatable as well. Thanks for the awesome video 👍😎
I had both a PS2 & and Xbox, but a lot of the multiplatform games in your video i owned on PS2 as a lot came to it first, or i was young & couldn't afford to double dip or see the appeal of it unless the game ran terribly on PS2. Terminator 3 Redemption was a good game if i remember right, at least, much better than i thought it would be.
Woo Hoo! A new Metal Jesus upload. You, Deer Meat for Dinner, and Blue Gabe are my most-fav TH-camrs.
I watched all your Xbox OG videos before building my collection which is now at around 200 games. It was invaluable so thank you for that!
Predator: Concrete Jungle. I love this game, unlocked everything in it and played many times.
Original Xbox was the first console I ever had. Very nostalgic for me. Always brings a smile to my face when people also enjoy it.
Great video as usual! I have so much love and passion for this system.
For the James Bond games, according to Sean Connery's IMDB page, From Russia with Love for the Xbox is among the last few roles he did.
Thank you! I'm currently collecting for the original Xbox and this video helps a lot.
21:53 Those games right there bring back so many childhood memories.
Jet Set Radio Future was a masterpiece on the original Xbox. The 007 James Bond series were great especially Nightfire and Everything of Nothing. Great collection!
Awesome video, defiantly appreciate the time it took to record all that gameplay. Makes such a cool addition to the video!
Glad you enjoyed!
I'm having a tough week. This is what I need. Thanks MJR.
Glad to help 🤗
I purchased Darkwatch on clearance for $2 around 2009. It is one of the games I kept and still play from time to time.
Thanks for highlighting the remakes and newer versions. That made this video worth it!
I played SCARFACE for a year straight, everyday, to get 100% completion. Word has it, the gent that voiced Tony Montana was approved by Al Pacino. And he was spot on. (Sounded exactly like A.P.) Pacino was offered the voiceover work, but felt he was too old.
I highly, HIGHLY recommend this game!!
Metal Wolf Chaos XD is also available on Xbox One and X/S.
I should have mentioned that LOL
I have discovered a lot of great games thanks to Heavy Metal Jesus.
I had never even heard of the Persona games until I saw Heavy Metal Jesus talk about them. I love 4 and 5. I think 4 especially should make every RPG top 5 list.
Fantastic collection! I love Metal Wolf Chaos, that game is just absolute bonkers and I can't get enough of it haha
I loved playing deathrow with friends. So many memorable moments with the og xbox. Great video!
I moddedd my og xbox and it makes a great couch coop emulation machine and still plays original Xbox games.
Such a great overview I'm really going to look out for some of the games mentioned here to add to my existing XBOX collection
Such a well made video! thanks MJR!
Excellent episode, thank you for your knowledge ! :)
This are the kind of video I subscribed to your channel! Keep them coming!
Keep up the great work man. Respect!
I know it takes a lot of effort, but using the chapters makes a world of difference on the viewing side.
Between multiple videos, different creators, and content styles manually scrubbing through the list of games can get time consuming.
I always like, and comment to bump the algorithm, but with time stamps coming back for more than one viewing would be way easier and a win win. You do an awesome job every time, loving the videos so far, thanks 😊
LA was pretty accurate ine True Crime: Streets of LA... I could drive around all the streets I knew, and even see the same "stores".
Awesome to see your OG Xbox collection, love the system and games
Great video! Thank you for the quality content. ❤
I am shocked at how good some of these games still look... Amazing video as always Metal Jesus! 🤘
Fantastic video, so much nostalgia. My best memories are from original Xbox Live, Mechassault, Rainbow Six 3 and Splinter Cell. Could play those for days.
Metal arms Glitch in the system was a very unique experience! I have some fond memories of that game c:
I was just thinking about when the next upload would come and here it is! Right on time, might I add! Thanks for the awesome content, Metal Jesus :)
Enjoy!
NInja Gaiden/Ninja Gaiden Black is one of my fave OG Xbox Exclusives
i remember before covid i found a crystal xbox in mint condition boxed in a charity shop for £20.
ive put so much love into collecting for it mainly because it was cheap and well nobody was in 2018. i kept building and researching about which games to go for.
the majority of the 100+ games ive managed to get have been really affordable.
now is the time to collect for the original xbox. another reason is to install them on your xbox one x or above.
underrated and easy to collect for. i say go for it!
Thanks metal jesus for uploading this video.
much needed.
all the best and keep mashing buttons
Willx
