Xbox Classic

So, some time ago i bought an xbox from a thrift store, it was like 5$ so i said, f**k it, it's worth it. Now i got Half-Life 2, i haven't played it yet, and i'm waiting for cables and a controller to arrive, if it doesn't work, i don't know, we'll see. I would like to buy Halo CE, FarCry and Metal Gear Solid. I haven't ever seen an xbox classic working, so it's going to be fun playing it for the first time. I have a lot of knock-offs of nes, snes, atari 2600, and a ps1, a ps2, gba, nds, n3ds, and that's all, every system is really different from one another so, i don't really know what to expect. When they're going to come (the cables and controller) i'm going to update you guys. Anyways, hope you have a great day.
