One of the things that you can do is call 1-800-4MY-XBOX for information on how to reset it. Also if you unplug your Xbox and plug it back in you have to reset some information (such as time date) and it may wipe out the parental controls as well. However this does not erase game save information.

Parental control on an XBox? Is this also the same for the GC?

Lizking · October 21st, 2002

i think the parental controll locks out R rated DVDs. the cube doenst have this feature, because it doesnt play DVDs

That a bit pointless IMHO. My folks technique was much better, they hid the controllers.

Well,...i dont advice you ro do that, but if i was you, i would open the xbox and remove the battery from the motherboard chip and wait for sometime and plug it in again. This method will remove ALL stored data from your motherboard.........but it will definalty reset your password.

The XBOX.

That's your biggest mistake.

Before you start flaming me guys :

What games wortwhile does the XBOX have , let me sum them up :

Dead or Alive 3
Halo
Halo 2
Dead or Alive Xtreme Volleball
Malice (To be released yet)
Virtua Fighter 4 Extra (Or what it's called)
Shenmue (Why?! The horror)
Rayman 3 (Which every next-gen console has)
Sega Soccer Slam (Which every next-gen console has)
Crazy Taxi 3
Onimusha Extra (Or what it's called)
Panzer Dragoon

That's all of the games I ,myself would want for my XBOX , don't get me wrong there real top games , but just not good enough for me.

Look at the GC or PS2 then :

I have a Dutch saying for it :

PS2 heeft kwantiteit , GC heeft kwaliteit.
(PS2 has quantity , GC has quality)

But that just me

actually ps2 have both quantity and quality.

**Kane** · October 21st, 2002

Dead or Alive 3 > Not much on DoA 2 on DC and PS2
Malice (To be released yet) > What the hell's thiss? Malice was on the PC years ago!
Virtua Fighter 4 Extra (Or what it's called) > Nothing much on VF4 PS2, which was cack anyway. VF2 was the only good one.
Shenmue (Why?! The horror) > Never liked it.
Crazy Taxi 3 > CT2 wasn't much on CT1, so I don't think CT3 will be much on it either

IMO the PS2 has a lot of quality if not here now, very close on the horizon. The GC has nothing which would make me wanna buy it as yet, and yes I have played mario sunshine. I wasn't impressed.

I also feel unimpressed by Mario's latest it's just too idiotic sometimes. They should have left it a little old school like they did with 64 just a basic game with the fun nintendo elements.

The FLUDD takes a lot of fun out of the game because it's stupid.
Just take simple Mario and kidnap the princess (again). That's the formula for a good game

Furthermore don't get me wrong Lord Kane but I actually owned a PS2 from the beginning when it was available and aquired about 17 games in about 1.5 years. The games where good but IMO they seemed to lack one major thing :

The Platform Genre , the platform which I enjoy the most.

That was the main reason for selling my PS2 and buying a GC.

"actually ps2 have both quantity and quality"

Well they have some quality , that's right but that's more overshadowed by the quantity of bull****ty games.

"Dead or Alive 3 > Not much on DoA 2 on DC and PS2"

Have you ever played this game Lord Kane , do it and your mind will change on this matter

"Malice (To be released yet) > What the hell's thiss? Malice was on the PC years ago!"

I don't know anything of a PC version of Malice (by Argonaut) but it's a platfrom type game scheduled for release for both PS2 and XBOX.

"Virtua Fighter 4 Extra (Or what it's called) > Nothing much on VF4 PS2, which was cack anyway. VF2 was the only good one"

VF2 was the one with biggest difference in GFX way that's mostly why people call it the best VF. And why was VF4 cack ? (Too hard maybe

)

"Shenmue (Why?! The horror) > Never liked it"

It's a unique game , but I can see why. Because of the concept of pressing a button on the right time and no actual gameplay , in fight scenes for instance.

"Crazy Taxi 3 > CT2 wasn't much on CT1, so I don't think CT3 will be much on it either"

Crazy Taxi 1 on DC blew me away when it was released. CT2 on the other end was a big dissapointment. Maybe 3 would prove to be better.

Yes I have played DoA3, and I was decidedly unimpressed.

>I don't know anything of a PC version of Malice (by Argonaut) but it's a platfrom type game scheduled for release for both PS2 and XBOX.

The PC version of Malice was an excellent commercial TC for Quake. See if you can find it as it's excellent.

>VF2 was the one with biggest difference in GFX way that's mostly why people call it the best VF. And why was VF4 cack ? (Too hard maybe )

No, too easy actualy. I found VF2 much harder, which is what I prefer.

I feel that platform games became poor after the transition to 3D. Give me an old skool 2d platformer any day of the week.... and that means me going back to my SNES.
