When I was 10 I got the OG Black Xbox 360 Elite in 2009 MW2 and Halo 3 being my first games, nothing will ever top gaming like that time period, so glad I got to grow up with it!
I agree. I remember when Halo 3 came out. Pre ordered, waited for months and bought the elite with it. Definately a time in gaming I will always remember.
The duke is the most comfortable. 360 is the gold standard for any age, it's also very, extremely, ridiculously durable. Since the One... they feel like toys. It's such a cheap plastic. I'll never buy a new Microsoft controller ever again. I'm sticking with Gamesir for life or until a better company comes along.
The PS3, 360 and Wii era was gaming at its peak. We had so much creative innovation with franchises and alot of memorable classics from that console generation. It's thanks to the success of the 360 Sony actually had to step it up, because their $599 pricing for PS3 in 2006 made them come off as they tried to become the Apple of home consoles/gaming.
The saddest part is that newer generations will have no idea of what it was like even if they play all the games from that era. The set and setting is extremely important. The society, the culture, the music; the kind of displays we all had, from the last, most advanced CRT's to the newer LCDs. It all came with a vibe that you cannot replicate today because now you know you are faking it for just a moment in your room and that's it. Gaming is gone as we knew it for decades. It's time for the indie scene and mod communities to shine like never before.
Just shows how easily people are tricked really. Sony is also not Microsoft with practically infinite money, who could subsidise all aspects of the development costs and then subsidise the cost of the console much heavier than the competition.

@@OctavioGaitan mainly because they kept dying and you either had to send it in or buy a new one. I went through 12 of those things and ive had a few friends who went through more than that.
What I miss the most is being able to put a disc in and it being ready to play immediately not having to wait for it to download even after buying the disc version
There are over 200 non-backward compatible games for the 360, with many of them not having a physical release. Plus, you won't be able to buy any DLC for 360 games, even if you have it on disc.
@@starzhvh Ahh the old reset glitch hack consoles. I had one back in the day that would sometimes take a minute to boot or 20 minutes. This was back when they first came out with the slim consoles.

Homebrew and hacking enable that kind of content that gets delisted to still be available to people who want it. Archiving and playing older content is a good thing. Not even being able to purchase it anymore is a total shame. I'd have loved to play FH2's DLC, even the Fast and the furious version of the game etc. But without a viable XB1 mod there's simply no way to. I'd buy it if possible, but because of licenses it has to basically disappear forever .
@mad576wastaken havent really played the 360 in a while, mostly switch and steam deck and far as consoles go recently. But still a massive improvement for couch gaming. Loving game pass catalog.. just need more time to get through it haha
1:51 You're gravely mistaken Austin.. You CAN swap out the hard drive, or mod it to have an SSD with the proper peripheral(s) by popping out the left side of the console. (Xbox 360S)
I noticed that Chronicles of Riddick Assault on Dark Athena is still available digitally on the 360 for $15. It sadly didn't make it to the backwards compatibility program.
4:25 that’s why modded Xbox’s with RGH3 is such the move. Get a BUNCH of games you can’t buy without spending over $100 for them on eBay (Spider-Man shattered dimensions is my childhood)
Im pretty sure that if you buy an xbox 360 game on a 360 and use the same account as your xbox one/series and it is backwards compatible it will be in your library on the newer consoles.
That Wi-Fi dongle was absolutely the most unreliable beauty it kicked me out of many halo reach lobbies but damn it came in clutch my neighbors didn’t have a password for there Wi-Fi
i used a wifi repeater for all of my 360s they were like 17 bucks and so reliable. wifi repeater connected to your router via WPS and connected to the console via ethernet.
If you want access to all of these games, there are people online who have them readily available for download. You will need an RGH to play them but at least you will still be able to play on the original hardware
The Xbox 360 was awesome, had some of the coolest special edition consoles ever. I just fixed the RRoD on my 360 Halo 3 edition, now the only special editions I still want are the Halo Reach Slim and the Star Wars Slim.
I remember Skyrim took AGEEEES to load. It took like a full minute so you could play again after opening a door. When the Xbox One came I played the whole game again and it was super fast.
XBox decided what became popular between DVD HD and Blu-ray. That add on drive was absolutely stupid. I don't think the store i worked at sold more than three before they clearanced out.
I still have my Xbox 360 to this day & it brings back so much Nostalgia. I went on a shopping spree in the last few months but I’m going to get a few more things before the 360 Store is gone forever🔥👍
Ah the Xbox 360. One of my first gaming consoles. Played so much Black Ops 2 and so much GTAV when it came out before heading to school. I'd say it stands the test of time alongside the PS3.
I was actually cleaning a closet the other day and my old 360 was just sitting there. We plugged it back in and relived all the old Minecraft worlds my kids built.
I'm so glad Microsoft still allow so many old green games on game pass, and for the ones that aren't on game pass or digital you can still play most off disc
@@psychopathyoutubeemployees280 piracy exists for many reasons though, before digital gaming was a thing people still pirated stuff, its going to be more mainstream now like what people did with music
But Microsoft seriously pulled through with their warranties on the 360. I could ship my console out and have it back the same week at that time which was actually kind of crazy. It shouldn’t have happened in the first place but they honestly did amazing handling that issue for their customers. They were devoted to keeping people happy and not losing their fans
For those complaining that he said that it is much easier to swap the drives on the original 360 I think it is because physically swapping the drive is easier. The 360's hard drive is locked away in a caddy with extremely tough adhesive. So if one wanted to swap out a bigger hard drive or even an SSD, on the original 36p it is just a few screws.
Still have my 2 360's and have games on them that you cant evewn get anymore. Love them and have been playing games here and there with my son now. Greatest system
I remember in 2017 getting the Xbox one s for Christmas, to honour my Xbox 360 I had up until then I played all my favourite games from start to finish before moving my account over to Xbox one and saying goodbye to my 360
Eh? You can just open the store in the console and search for the 360 and even the first xbox, there's even like a tab or filter to select 360 and OG xbox games that are compatible to play one the new xbox...
I have 3 360s a black elite, The Halo 3 version, and a slim silver reach version. Yes I like Halo! My point is I'm going to hook one of them up and see what's up
PSA for those of you whose 360 disconnects from Xbox live when you sign into your profile: Turn recurring billing on/off, whatever is opposite of what you have it as. This will allow you to sign in again
I have the 360 versions on disc cause they aren't backward compatible... and some of them are on sale right now in the 360 store so I bought them and downloaded them to have them ready in my 360
I love how everyone always brings up the RROD for Xbox but never the YLOD for PS3. Even though the failure rates were pretty damn close. It was 53% for Xbox and 47% for PS3
Losing the 360 marketplace will be the biggest blow to gaming history ever. I don’t think there’s ever been a greater loss of access to games and their DLC. It truly is an end of an era.
Perhaps I'm mistaken but are 360 games not on the latest consoles? Your tone near the end almost felt as if all these backward compatible games were just going to disappear.
Any games you own that are backwards compatible will show up on the latest console. You can't buy 360 games you don't already own using the latest console (and you won't be able to buy 360 games from a 360 either once the store closes), and any game that isn't on the backwards compatible list won't show up to play on the latest console even if you own it.
My boys pooled their money and bought an xbox 360 a few years after it first came out, and my older boy still has it and it still works. When we built our house, satellite internet was all we could get, so they had to wait till midnight to start downloading a new game, and it took hours. that may be why he wanted my external hard drive...
What do you mean the slim lost the ability to easily swap the hard drive? You just take the door off on the right side and pull the tab.
Yes, exactly. Austin saying that was kinda weird.
You don't even need a screwdriver to take the cover off.
Because you lost like 30 seconds it's loses the ability to be swapped easily 😂😂🤷♀️
I was thinking about what he said and was confused. It was way better than the original 360. Made the console look more neat and squared away.
I think it’s cus the first one was a little more simple but still very weird. At least it wasn’t like the ps2 going to the slim ps2 where you just lose hard drive support all together
This is why Backwards compatibility is so important. It helps with game preservation.

Any games you own that are backwards compatible will show up on the latest console. You can't buy 360 games you don't already own using the latest console (and you won't be able to buy 360 games from a 360 either once the store closes), and any game that isn't on the backwards compatible list won't show up to play on the latest console even if you own it.
I had one that red ringed. Ended up buying a one
Instead of a PS4 ?! What a stupid move lmaooo 😆🤣
The games that show up on the Series X/S store are only the 360 games that are backwards compatible.
I'm staying with physical media, thank you.
My boys pooled their money and bought an xbox 360 a few years after it first came out, and my older boy still has it and it still works. When we built our house, satellite internet was all we could get, so they had to wait till midnight to start downloading a new game, and it took hours. that may be why he wanted my external hard drive...
