About this product

Product Information

Combining the sleek black of the 8GB Microsoft Xbox console with the black-ops action of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow, the Microsoft Xbox Espionage Pack is an excellent choice for fans of stealth gaming. The original edition of Microsoft’s game consoles, best known as the platform for Halo, the Xbox packed a number of powerful features into its striking case with front-loading disc tray and four controller ports (which can be accessorized for wireless controllers). Around the time of its release in 2001, the Xbox was noted for having the internal processing power of a PC, with a 733MHz Intel processor, 64MB of RAM, and a custom Nvidia graphics board called the NV2A. It was designed for compatibility with both standard type 4:3 TVs and HD-ready sets, offering 480p, 720p, and 1080i output signals in normal and widescreen aspect ratios. The Xbox also supports 5.1 Dolby Digital surround sound, along with 256 voice channels, for an immersive gameplay experience. The built-in 8GB hard drive is ample for saving games, while Xbox memory cards are also available to share data between consoles. The 8GB hard drive also goes a long way toward boosting load times and storing cache levels from games so the system is not entirely dependent on game disc information. The 8GB hard drive can also be used for data storage of other kinds, including music copied directly from CDs, making the Microsoft Xbox an all-round entertainment system and not just a gaming console. Bundled with the black Xbox console, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow makes great use of the console’s features and functionality. In this espionage classic, which was better received on the Xbox than on any other console, players assume the role of Sam Fisher to search for information on and help tackle CIA-trained guerilla Indonesian militia leader Suhadi Sadono. Fans of the original Splinter Cell appreciated the return of many integral gameplay mechanics, with stealth and infiltration being a central focus. In Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow, players use the controller to dictate some of the tiniest movements of Sam Fisher, shifting his weight to prepare for specialist maneuvers, such as split jumping between walls or whistling to attract enemies. The game also benefits from new moves like spinning from the shadows to silently murder enemies, who have been given an AI overhaul to make them more intelligent and reactive than before. All of this translates into a more realistic and more challenging black-ops simulation. Several other improvements from the first game include static health kits, binoculars, better lighting, and alarms that can be set off during play without automatically failing the mission. Other new features in Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow include secondary weapon functions that can be equipped during missions, such as the laser sight. The game takes place across a varied range of exciting levels, including jungles, rooftops, and the outside of a moving train as well as several different countries, jetting between East Timor, France, Israel, Indonesia, and the United States. Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow was the first installment in the Splinter Cell video game franchise to feature a Microsoft Xbox Live multiplayer mode, which was based on the single player game, to position players as either SHADOWNET spies or ARGUS mercenaries. The game has an ESRB Teen rating. For fans of stealth games, the black Microsoft Xbox 8GB Espionage Pack with Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is an excellent choice that features plenty of all-new content and gameplay improvements right out of the box.

  • It works!! IT WORRRRKS!!

    I was literally getting tired of the Xbox one and couldn't play my old games on it. I heard the newer console was gonna be backwards compatible but couldn't afford so I took the risk to get the original XBox. It works very well. It takes me back to when you didn't need to pay for BS content like these newer games. Until the price for the newer Xbox goes down, I'm sticking with the original XBox.

  • Old but still good.

    The console couldn't read discs when hooked up but there was no "guaranteed to work" in the description so I expected as much. It was also an easy repair so that made it even less of an issue. Been having a lot of nostalgic fun replaying old games I greatly enjoyed in my youth. 9/10, will purchase from again.

  • Awesome product

    Love the Xbox. Has every game ever made on any platform before 2007. If you’re a lover of old school games this is for you. Been playing it for about a month or so now and haven’t run into any problems. Games save like they’re supposed to and multiplayer works perfectly. The graphics are what you would expect from the older games. Very happy I bought this console.

  • It doesn't work on every game I put in. ...

    It doesn't work on every game I put in. It works on some games but I'm upset that I wasted my money on something that doesn't fully function the way I expected it to be. I mean, I expected this console to be used but I expected the insides of the console to work 100% like a regular console. Even my game discs are in great condition, too and it still wouldn't work on all games regardless. It'd be nice if I can get my money back because this is disappointing.

  • Original X-box Review

    X-box works great, nice that there were games included. The price was amazing and the system works! Everything advertised as it was. Took a little while to get here, a few weeks, and had a little glitch with the system, it wouldn't read the games. I had to try multiple times, but that's no one's fault, it's an older system. Other than that, everything's fine. Thanks!

  • Oldie, but a goodie!!

    After having all xbox platforms, I still find myself favoring my original xbox system! I have 97 games, and they are all entertaining! The graphics are still great to my eye, and remember, I have all platforms of xbox! The original will always be my favorite!

  • Exactly what I wanted.

    Everything is perfect out of the box except one thing. Would be nice if 1080i was disabled in the config, since the dashboard included doesn't support it and will give you a black screen if you're using an Xbox-to-HDMI cable. Not a big deal if you know how to connect to the Xbox from your computer, but does still make it not immediately plug-and-play.

  • It was so good I had to get it again!

    I got the original XBOX way back in 2002, as a gift. The console lasted me up until 2013 and let me just say, this console is the most fun I have ever had with a gaming system. Even now that i own a 360E and a XB1S I cannot help but go back and revisit my old classic XBOX games. I purchased another one because, like i said, my 1st XBOX died back in 2013, caused by a leaking clock capacitor. I was so sad that before tossing my original XBOX in the dump I opened it and kept the original 8gb HDD in hopes that someday in the future the modding community would find a way to unlock the original xbox HDD to download the data stored into a computer. I regret dumping my 1st XBOX. Anyways, It's 2017, and despite the xbox 360 having BC for classic xbox games, I cannot play many of my classics on the 360. So I did the most natural thing, I searched for a decent looking XBOX from a reasonable EBAY member. Im so glad I can play my games again. Now I plan to softmod this badboy, upgrade the HDD and install my game library to the console itself. On a further note, If you plan to get an original xbox, get yourself one of the Logitech precision cordless controllers, they make the gaming experience so much better, I recommend it.
