The beginning of the end for the 360. When do you suppose the plug will be totally pulled? I think it's still got a few years of viability left as a platform.
>>
>>334931476
Its been more than 10 years, I think it had a very good run.
>>
8th gen is pointless and unneeded. Both the 360 and the Piss3 had the potential to continue being the main consoles for years into the future.

There's no point in owning one if you can play its games on the newer system.

Xbone's list of backwards compatible games is rather small. It's still growing, but there's a lot it can't play.
>>
>>334932985
Its not like the 360 will be difficult to find. The system was already 11 years old.

Literally the best console ever made, On my opinion.
>>
>>334931476

360 games stopped coming out already. Maybe they'll go down in price a little more.
>>
>>334931476
So why did they call it the Xbox 360?
>>
>>334935380
360 means full circle, back to 1. All their consoles are named Xbox One.

RIP 360. So many memories are flooding back about the awesome times. Despite the RROD, we can all agree the 360 is one of the best consoles ever made.

Aside from party-chat function and Forza series, it was quite literally trash console.
And yes, I owned it - even modded it, it was fucking low quality piece of shit even in 2008.

I'm inclined to agree with him. Granted it did massively casualize gaming, but the range of games that weren't only good but also fell in price quite quickly made it a really accessible console.

Coupled with the emergence of online gaming on consoles the 360 became an absolute beast for Western gamers.

IMHO.

The hardware was pretty good for its time though, in terms of performance.
If I remember correctly the gpu was equivalent to a high end one at release.

It's been fun
Those gears days, ps3hasnogaems, all the shmups, the indie games, custom music during halo 3 multiplayer, xbox live discussions around porn and hentai...

>>334938535

Hardware wise yeah, it was pretty good during 2005-2007.
It's architecture was also more accessible for devs, especially due to shared memory pool.

Fuck, I still haven't download stuff like guardian heroes.

The definitive console of gen 7, hands down.

By no means perfect, and towards the end of its life it got plagued with ads and kinect. Still, it dwarfed the competition in online stability, multiplat performance, and a Mirada of other areas such as controller and backwards compatibility.

While nowhere near my favorite console,11 years is a respectable time to be in production. Hats off to you 360, your successor, nor either of its competitors, will ever fill your shoes.
>>
>>334938018
True, but unlike PS3 the games worked and looked great.

What 360/pc exclusives could justify buying a cheap Xbox ?

> The Witcher
> Mass Effect

> Fable
> Banjo-Kazooie

That's about 15 games right ? Anything else ? Is it worth it ?

Ace Combat.

He means compared to PS3, which was so one sided it wasn't even funny. You think this gen has a difference, last gen was often night and day.

Obviously PC was still the superior choice.

Pic related is just one example of how far ahead the 360 was on multiplats

They are still in the process of moving the 360 games to the one store. Plus some companies like Bethesda dont want their games to be free if you already owned them on 360. They want you to pay again.

Got the ps2 versions of AC4 and 5 for dirt cheap last weekend.

Are those good places to start the series?

Yes, start with Ace Combat 4 and then play 5. If you're hungry for more play Zero.

Anyone got more examples of multiplats where the 360 version was superior? The only one I knew of was Bayonetta.
>>
>>334939648
It was so easy to fix them. Id keep my eye out for them and usually just have to re flow the solder then go pawn/sell them.
>>
>>334939889
Nobody cared about demon souls until dark souls came on the 360
>>
>>334939470
HE meant ps3

360 underperformed ps3 in every multiplat after the first year
>>
>>334939894
I heard 360's version of RDR was a little better.

I didn't have any issues with the PS3 version myself.
>>
>>334931476
Why did it take this long?
It pisses me off that people are still supporting last gen

so realistically the next console they would discontinue is the Xbox One

could this be the end of the xbox?

My Xbox Hueg sits right next to my video game CRT TV. It's modded, and I do have a huge lineup of physical games for it, but without the original Xbox Live, it's just not the same.

I want to play Crimson Skies online. I want to play Wacked! online. I want to play the original Halo2 Online. I want to play Chaos Theory online.

Would it be so god damned hard for Microsoft to keep some meager servers for the people who want to play their old games?

I know there's workarounds and parallel networks for the Hueg, but there's hardly anyone playing the lesser known games.
