Got an original xbox with a CRT recently, looking for some games. I enjoy survival horror games (I actually got silent hill 2, and 4 for it) So if there are any more similar games like that, let me know.

Not like that, but Crimson Skies & Mercenaries were my two favorite Xbox games.

I don't know anything about that genre, but Amped 2 would be my recommended palette cleanser.

Everything or Nothing is a great James Bond game that spends a lot of time in New Orleans. The motorcycle chase on the Ponchartrain Bridge is one of the standout moments.

If you like Silent Hill:

1. Cold Fear
2. Fatal Frame 1 & 2
3. The Thing
4. The Suffering

Other good games:
1. Fable
2. Brute Force

Fable

Damn! I forgot about OG Fable.

I had my archery skill so pumped up, I could decapitate a target with a bow & arrow.

Crimson Skies
Hunter: The Reckoning
Unreal Championship II
Mech Assault
Panzer Dragoon Orta
Jet Set Radio Future
Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate
Rallisport Challenge

There are better ways to play Fable. Both the remake and the original Fable are available on Steam.

KOTOR 1 and 2 are available on Steam, Switch, and mobile. Both KOTOR games can run on a potato.

Fatal Frame 1 & 2

For sure have been wanting to play, but they're very expensive. Had no idea they were on xbox.
Other games look cool, will look into them.

You could play some Morrowind if you really wanna push that hardware to the limit.

Again I would say if you want to play Morrowind, play on PC.

That especially is a PC-first game that was "ported" to Xbox. The GoTY version in particular runs like absolute arse.

I agree PC is far superior but someone playing an OG Xbox might actually appreciate the jank
