Remember how it felt to own an Xbox 360?
>>736929236No
>>736929236Its online experience was vastly superior to the...ps4?
>>736929779Xbox started it all and perfected it by Xbox 360
>its november 2005 and you're coming out of the store with brand new Xbox 360just imagine
>>736929779Literally every possible option is better than PSN. Even the Switch 2 not having any lag on the eshop like the Switch 1 version makes it better. I seriously don't know why Sony hasn't made any meaningful improvements in three generations and probably because they have the bulk of the Fortnite audience spending cash on their shop they have no incentive to improve.
>>736930037Reminders>launch model didn't have HDMI support>none of the fat style units had WiFiEveryone I know who had a fat model ended up needing to get a 360 S later on.
>>736929876xbox was like fifth console with online. didn't start it
>>736930662you're kind of right, SNES had the proto-xbox-live way before it was cool
>>736929236Yes, the experience was so polished that it felt like magical technology at the time compared to everything else.>>736930595I still have the original, I don't know wtf you're talking about. TVs still had component input for a long time after and it's not like the 360 put out 1080p anyways.
hopefully project Helix will bring back the xbox from the dead
>>736929236I had a PS3
>>736930987we've got a rich guy ova 'ere
>>736930595They usually bundled the phat models with a WiFi receiver you just attached it to on the back and it worked decent enough
>>736929236still own one. rgh and all, love it
>>736930987thiswhy would you buy an Xbox360 when PS3 was there?>Halouh huh, OK>God of War>Resistance>Uncharted>Ratchet and Clank>The Last of Us>MGS 4>Demon's Souls>Killzone>inFamous>Heavy Rain>Yakuza
>>736930987ok Freddy Francesco
>>736931738none of these games were available on launch day
>>736929236>own>have to pay twice for your internet connectionyou didn't "own" anything on the 360
>>736929236it was a huge leap to be playing online vegas/halo/gears but still on a crt
>>736930987Same, i bought a PS3 for the future FF games i've never bought to become a CoD pubstomper. Things that just happened.
>>736929236>Remember how it felt to own an Xbox 360?
>>736932130Microshit did that with the first xbox too iirc. Even the PS2 had free online.
>>736932130>but it's ok when pc players pay for wow subscriptionsok
>>736932407turtlewow has no sub cost and lawsuits wont change jack shit about it
>>736932407WoW players are subhumans. Real humans played games without subs in the 00's.
>>736929236I still own 2 of them
>>736932580no you don't
I gamed exclusively on Xbox for 20 years. Paid for XBL for about 19 of those. The 360 was definitely the golden era of Xbox, but that shit is over with. MS needs to just let the Xbox die. PC is the way forward.
Sold mine. I had to play for multiplayer and it sucked dick, and I had no games since i had a pc. I simply walked away
>>736933429Wierd people nowadays pay for ps plus and they dont sell their consoles
>>736929236Yeah frustrating. >20mb cardHard to buy expensive hdd add on>want to play onlineBuy $100 wifi adapter and $8 subscription >want to play gamesNo gamesPs3 was way better. It just worked
>>736930898>microjeet>doing something goodlmao
>>736932337Never understood this joke from Xbox haters. You could literally ship your malfunctioning Xbox to Microsoft and they'd send you a replacement, FOR FREE. I did it when my Xbox 360 Elite had the red ring of death and the new one never failed again after 10 years of continuous gaming, until I sold it to buy my Xbox One.
>>736929236piracy was easier until PS3 got the USB flash hack
microjeet should release a 360 classic
I do, do you?
>>736931738>he never got to experience halo custom games and forge modeBasically gmod lite
My first games were Lost Planet and Oblivion. I also bought Geometry Wars on xbla.
>>736935756lost planet was so coolthe sequel sucked
>>736929236>150db fans>rrodthank you mr gates
>>736931738All of those except R&C and MGS4 weren't nearly as good as Halo multiplayer. It's unfair to compare them though, because most of those games are single player-focused experiences. Sony's clear failure in that era was that PS multiplayer shooters sucked, and the ones that didn't were on ecksbawks too. They already had the shooterbro market captured because of halo. Forza Motorsport also heavily mogged Grand Turismo in that era, which was the main reason I got one.
>>736929236I still have mine, still works too. Just need to make sure to clean the drive and dust the insides
>>736935913LP2 was great, come on now. Running da big train dakka with your friends was awesome, they don't make coop campaigns like that anymore.
>>736929236It was a significantly worse experience than the OG Xbox.
>>736934819>You could literally ship your malfunctioning Xbox to Microsoft and they'd send you a replacement, FOR FREE>FOR FREEThey wanted me to pay $180 for shipping. I manager's to fix it myself.
>>736929236I know how it feels right now
>>736936604>mechassault 2 is backwards compatible but mechassault 1 isn't
>>736929236In terms of nostalgia, Xbox live on the 360 was probably the most fun I’ve had playing video games online ever. I mostly play on PC now but I literally never play with friends anymore.
>>736930595>launch model didn't have HDMI supportWho cares your TV didn't have HDMI either>none of the fat style units had WiFiGood, stop playing online with shitty wifi
>>736936209Forza peaked with Forza 4, I hate Horizon and I really miss Jeremy Clarkson narrations.
I remember not being able to save Cyrodil with my Dunmer spellsword because we had to ship that bitch back to microsoft for repairssummer of 07
I wish people made reproduction 360 fat shells. The white ones yellow way too easily and the shitty USB door covers snap off if you look at them funny
