    So glad I started collecting OG Xbox games about 2-3 years ago they were absolutely dirt cheap and now I've got about 300 games. And then I went and collected most of the exclusives on 360 since I've got a majority of that generation on PS3

      You probably should have bought your multiplatform games on the 360, since its well known most games of that generation run and look worse on the PS3 because it was so difficult to make games on.

    I’ve been picking up xbox 360 games lately. I was busy building my business during the majority of the 360 and ps3 era, and never played any of the games released for those consoles, outside a couple of crossover titles for ps4. I’ve been having a really good time for mostly $2-10 a game

  • @justingoodrum6767

    With the way you talked about Ryse. I would like to possibly recommend Shadow of Rome by Capcom on the ps2. It was kind of difficult from what I remember but the colosseum battles were pretty incredible for it's time. They were working on a sequel but it somehow turned into Dead Rising instead. That should give you a little bit of an idea what to expect in the colosseum though.

  • @letastycrumpet
    @letastycrumpet 6 місяців тому +4

    Omg thank you! Singularity is one of my favourite games on the the 360. The seeker Sniper is one of the most fun weapons in any game and the multiple endings kept me playing for 3 play throughs. This game doesn't get enough praise. Funnily enough I also loved Blinx as a kid I own both of them games now... I'm starting to think me and you had a similar taste in games growing up Matty.

    I work in Games publishing at Microsoft and I led the project to enable you to continue to play Xbox 360 games after we shut down the store this summer.
    Games™, you already purchased, you will continue to be able to play.
    The only products affected are games for the Xbox 360, which you try to buy on the console itself.
    If you can buy an Xbox 360 game through your Xbox one right now, then that same product will still be purchasable after we shut down the Xbox 360 store this summer

    I've been focusing on the original Xbox for a while now. I'm at 72% for the original Xbox black label. I have a lot of the expensive ones to get yet but it's still fun to grab a lot of the other stuff for cheap. I've been grabbing 360 games as well. Like you said, most everything is cheap and easy to find. I believe I'm at 54% for the 360. Lots of underrated games on both systems. Grab them now before everything shoots up in price.

OG Xbox is up there with Dreamcast as one of the most underrated consoles of all time imo. So many great unique games that nobody has ever heard of.

Crimson Skies is one of the best Xbox games in my oppinion.

    After watching this, I wish I had more Xbox 360 physical cases. 😅 Most of the newer 360 pick ups, I only got the discs for them and I have them in a CD Case (the kind that holds a lot of cds, wanted to clarify). So far, I'm loving the process of building the collection and I hope that more games will be added to the Xbox backwards compatibility program, especially now after the Activision acquisition.

    i finally got my hands on a 360 for the first time in my life just last summer after ALWAYS wanting one as a kid but never being able to get one (or a PS3) because i was too poor (i eventually finally got on the PS3 train in 2016, and the PS4 train in 2017, but never got a 360 til last year. also this 360 is the very first Xbox console ive ever owned funnily enough).
    im excited to collect for it because it's in that sweet spot of being just old enough that i have nostalgia for the memories i shared with my friends playing on THEIR 360s back in the day, while still being new enough that the ULTR nostalgic demand hasn't really sunk in yet so the games are still cheap.
    id say we've got another good 4 years before 360 games start creeping up in price like we've been seeing happen with PS2 stuff lately. so get as many as you can while they're still cheap, before the nostalgic demand kicks in and the games start rocketing up in price. currently we're in the nostalgic era for the 6th gen, so it's only a matter of time (again, i estimate 4 years) before 7th gen stuff starts getting UBER expensive due to the nostalgia.

    Lost Odyssey is my jam. Such a shame MS removed the download from the servers. Lost Odyssey held me over as one of the first games I played. It is fantastic and the first time through this game is heart-wrenching. A true classic!
    Time shift was a absolutely fantastic. I've held on to there rare experiences over the years as I felt they would age well.

    Mental to think Xbox used to have exclusives.
