xbox is dead so let's remember the good old days aka xbox 360
I was playing with my Xbox 360 yesterday, I just beat Dead or Alive 4 with Helene...great game and great console in my opinion.
>>722709478WHICH MODEL ?
for me it still is and always will be Halo 3
>>722709726Xbox 360 E.
>>722709797is that the super slim? for me it was always the Elite
>>722710083It was the last model released and it is the smallest Xbox 360 model.
>>722710206yea the super slim. i gotta be honest i prefer the look of the original but im sure the hardware in both slim models are better.
>>722709206HOW DID THEY FUMBLE THIS GEN? THEY HAD MASS EFFECT AND BIOSHOCK AS EXCLUSIVE
>>722710629those games were made by third parties. weren't mass effect 2 and bioshock 2 on ps3?
>>722710629Ninja gaiden and DOA too
I want the DoA faceplate. They were a pretty good idea, and I wish we had better faceplates these days than the ones for the PS5.
>>722710839consoles used to have SOVL
>>722709206I still have mine and it's still plugged in. Never selling it.
>>722709478Love that game. Definitely one of my favourite consoles to mod, some really good games on there that never got ported anywhere else, including DOA4.
>>722711096based. mine still turns on and works fine only thing busted is the disc drive.
>>722709206My favorite console and the only one I ever truly got into. I just wish I was old enough to have experienced its heyday instead of the twilight years.
ITT: zoomers feeling nostalgia
>>722709206>so let's remember the good old days aka xbox 360Hey i remember that cat that traveled in time too, The first XBOX was Bill Gates baby, he lost tons of money to make a brand because the dude was a nerd and wanted a console.It mightve went downhill the moment the 360 came out but the original was fucking cool. I will never forget playing MechWarrior and the Bike game online with other people that shit was revolutionary........like 5 year ago before it launched but HEY
>>722709206Get that RROD, Kinect failure outta here. Posting the BEST Xbox (now with free online).
>>722709206Asians are ugly.
>>722709206
>>722712128what a slut.
>>722711987so am i . your point ?
currently trying to emulate naruto broken bond on xenia but it crashes i cant get past the first fight. the first game work flawlessly but id rather play the sequel
>>722709206was so comfy sending my xbox back to microsoft for repairs four times
>>722712212I made my point, you are ugly...
>>722712270 i seem to have gotten lucky. i sent mine in and they sent me a new one and like 6 months of paid xbox live for free and it still works to this day. the og alien looking model
>>722709206I was so tempted to get an xbox for gamepass. I'm glad I didn't. Fuck Microsoft. Hope they exit the console space.
if people get desperate enough to sell failing xbox series consoles i might pick one up if its super cheap. good for emulation
>>722712498
>>722712128DOA3 was such a marvel that it still looks good in 2025. Everyone really went all out with the og xbox>Ninja Gaiden Black>DOA3>Gaylo>Kotor>Fable>Conker Remake>Splinter CellConsole was the better choice for the first and last time. It legit was superior to a PC
is blue dragon worth playing
30 bucks for fucking ultimate they are insane
>>722712616What happens if you actually remove the multiplats? You get..blue dragon...Lost odyssey and......................................................................................................................................................................................................Table tennis
>>722713582early halo and gears are good
>>722713712Also on PC. And no they are not lol
>>722713787>Also on PCGears 2 and 3 are not unless you emulate I haven't tried them on xenia so idk if they run well. also yes they are
>>722710629The 360 won Gen 7 (well the Wii did but that doesn't count). It outsold the PS3 up until the next generation came out and was most popular in North America and the UK i.e. the only places that matter. No I do not care that a bunch of third-worlders bought a PS3 as a blu-ray player after the generation had already ended. Considering how the PS2 absolutely mogged the Xbox I think the 360 did pretty well.
>>722714474how many o those sales were people buying another one or three due to red rings though ?
>>722713787It's been nearly 20 years no shit most of the games have been ported by now you dumbfuck
>>722709206I have good memories playing MvC3 with my brother
im 31 and i kind of regret never going to a console launch in person. now i never will cause they dont even exist anymore
>>722714649360 is a failure of a console. Xbox as a brand died with the original
>>722714860no fun allowed
>>722714907We can play pretend. Bro Halo 2 and 3 are fucking :Fire: :skull: bruh, amazing games for the 360 bros, remember the good old days? Drinking Soda pop and playing Halo3 bros? those were the days bropffhhahah
Thank you Xbox
>>722709206I wish more emulator devs would team up and help the Xenia emulator devs so they can improve the emulator faster and I can play every x360 exclusive, arcade and exclusive dlc on pc and steam deck without issues. Same goes for Xemu.
>>722710629Reminder, they had GTA on the palm of their hand and they threw it away. They could've been the biggest gaming company in the world right now, but they kept making terrible decisions back then. Now every company does it, but MS was ahead of their time.
>>722709206back when it was normal and accepted to have hot girls hold up a new video game console
>>722711620yeah, that happens with every generation, you're not special
>>722709206There never was any good old days of Xbox. Those of us that did have Xbox were just blinded by Microsoft's lies is all. Also most of us were more just fans of Halo and Gears of War. We just convinced ourselves that this meant we were Xbox fans as a whole since we may have also purchased GTA, COD and other games in addition to this.Without Halo and Gears, but more just Halo, the brand would have never ever become a thing. Without Halo CE and Halo 2 there would not have even been a 360.
>>722714839You are a stupid bitch, Anon. I'm 30 now, and back when I was 23, I had the same fear, but I ended up getting an Xbox One X Scorpio Edition.Never pussy out, don't be a silly whore and live your life at th fullest. I can't imagine being a man with regrets.
>>722718363Would GTA have popped off like it did if it wasn't on the best seller of that generation the PS2 though?
>>722719189Do they even do midnight releases for consoles anymore? People just buy online these days. Watching videos of the 360 release for example there was actually hype
>>722709206I hate the fact they close the store so much. I would happily keep buying and playing games on my 360 just like I do with my PS3. But no dude you gotta own nothing and be happy
>>722709206>introduced paid onlinegood riddance
I honestly liked the green - white/black colors comboned, it looked so futuristic.
>>722727101Green and black is one of my favorite color combinations because of the xbox lol
cheevos.
>>722718583>hotThat girl is a 6/10 in America, 4/10 in Asia
>>722711967All OG Xboxs are fucking broken, at some point you're going to have to replace every cap or you lose the console. Yeah sure they were sturdier than the 360 but it is disappointing in knowing almost all of them are the end of their lives right now and emulation for the system is still shit outside of the most talked about games. I have one, paid to have every cap with high end caps so mine will last a long while but that isn't feasible for most people.
>>722728282could you please elaborate? cuz i own a huegbox and i havent turned it on again in years. like i literally just bought the thing to play jsrf and ninja gaiden black lamao. sometimes i get the itch to replay those yknow..
>>722728282You mean the clock capacitor? I removed mine but I think the disc tray laser still will not read my games. It goes on fine but can't read any game. So I at least know the capacitor didn't mess up the motherboard.
>>722728817nta but capacitors degrade over time, they can leak their electrolytes and ruin the motherboard, you have to replace them after a certain time to make sure it doesn't happenbut I don't know if xboxes are already old enough for it to be a risk, people recap older stuff like commodores
>>722713582The best Katamari game is still an Xbox exclusive. Also Fable 2,the first Saints Row,Gears of War 2 and 3.
>>722728282It sucks that extremely few games on the original Xbox were part of Microsoft's backwards compatible program. The 360 got a decent portion of the library but there were only a tiny fraction of the first Xbix were ever added. Microsoft was dumb to discontinue the Backwards Compatibility program since it's one of the best selling points for their later consoles
>>722729653PS2 and PS3 did it way better. Even PS5 does it better. Funny how Microsoft gets all this credit for backwards compatibility when Sony's consoles handled this shit a whole lot better in the first place. Fat PS3 model aside, I could still take out my current Slim PS3, put in a PS1 disc and expect it to work. I can put in just about any PS4 game into my PS5 and expect it to work. My PS2's also still work.But with Xbox? Nope there is more to it then you'd think. I had my 360 hooked up last year. I played quite a few games on it last year. I actually had to update the console even with playing offline. It wouldn't allow me to play my Xbox games otherwise. And that is because their backwards compatibility has always been shit actually. They claim they care so people eat their shit up like if they actually do. Sony says they don't care (and I believe them) but yet they still did it better every time they gave enough of a shit to have it as a feature.Only the biggest cuckolds like Xbox still.
>>722730067The Series X can play every Xbox One game and every game that was added to the backwards compatible program. I can pop a 360 disc or an OG one into the console a play them without having to but a digital version. The PS5 only plays PS4 games and doesn't work with anything from the PS1,PS2 or PS3 so the Xbox has a huge edge here. The Series X is unironically a fantastic console to own and I really enjoy mine.
>>722731147>The Series X can play every Xbox One game and every game that was added to the backwards compatible program. I can pop a 360 disc or an OG one into the console a play them without having to but a digital version.This is a nice feature I won't deny that. But you still are not getting every or even most 360 games and especially not with the OG Xbox. There are still certain good games left out with their program that could be fun to go back to. As for the PS5 not really fully defending Sony here but I can at least somewhat understand it not having backwards compatibility with all their other consoles because they 1) don't have Microsoft's money to truly invest deep into something like this for what would amount to likely little if any benefits for them as a company other than increasing some trust or appreciation in their fanbase. And then 2) that is going back 4 full consoles now. That is just way too much games to cover and not expect hardware to be super expensive or not have issues that can arise from such a feature being implemented. PC still is and always has been superior to consoles. So I cannot really fault PS5 only allowing for PS4 backwards compatibility. Which as we can see how this gen ended up it was a very wise move on their part.
>>722709206It pulled in normalfags, ruined PC APIs with shit like Xinput and generally just dragged down the standards for gaming across the board.>>722714474>It won Gen 7>The Wii doesn't count>PS3 sales outside of America don't countThe sheer copium for this failed chinkshit.
>>722709206The ring of death is the reason I've abandoned consoles for good.>>722709206
I have both the og and the 360 right next to me, and I was just playing DOA5, RE5 and FXIII yesterday.I can confidently say that og Xbox games look and play better than most 360 games. A game like FXIII could have 100% been made on the og no problems. DOAX2 looks and plays so much worse than DOAX on the og, it's like they were made by two different companies.
>>722736968>I can confidently say that og Xbox games look and play better than most 360 gamesI also have an og and a 360 next to me and this is complete horseshit lmaooriginal xbox controls are clunky as shit and the graphics are objectively less crisp than 360
>>722736968You should really see Final Fantasy 13 on the newer Xbox consoles. They bumped the resolution up to 4k and it looks really good now
>>722737147No they really don't, the image quality on the 360 isn't as good as on the og. The problem with the og is that its video output is washed out but that can be fixed with mods.In any case, DOAX >>>> DOAX2.
>>722737265>No they really don't, the image quality on the 360 isn't as good as on the og.you are actually just talking out of your ass, but I also wouldn't expect a DOAsimp to have good taste or opinions so I'm not shocked
OG xbox is just the better consolemore soulbetter and more unique gamesit's kinda like the saturn is being better than the DC
>>722718190ace combat 6 still works like dogshit on xenia the only game i care
Wow the last update made it so games with gold games show up in your owned games. BUT THEY STILL REQUIRE A SUBSCRIPTION, so now you can't even know which games you own or not
>>722709206I wanted to get the black 360 when it came outIt looked so cool
>>722737997tbf playstation does this too. you have to add a PS+ game to your library and then it becomes a part of your owned games. it's why playstation had a problem with people buying games which were on PS+ after they rebranded it a few years ago. if a game was on PS+ it was already a part of someones library, so it was impossible to buy it since it was already registered as them owning it.
>>722737773afterburner climax is better
>>722738308it wasn't a problem until this update tho. They also added a "recent" tab that is depended on internet. Bunch of retards at microsoft
>>722709206It was fun but in hindsight i should have just got a pc back then
>>722739447well that specific moment in time was peak shit pc port eraa lot of those shitty pc ports are fixed these days with mods or remasters but back then a lot of games were borderline unplayable and plagued with GFWL
>>722739602Ok maybe not a PC until the ps4 generation but still I remember how frustrating it was to see PC players getting double the map space on bf3
>>722739853yeah battlefield was one of the good onesbut you also needed a pretty beefy pc when it came outi remember i had a radeon 7970 and a top of the line amd cpu for its release date and i would hold 45 fps at 1080ppeople who screech for games not doing 120 fps at 4k really dont know how much better it is these days
