Xbox 360 10 year anniversary/appreciation (revealed on may 12th) thread

[Dreamer]

but since 360 came out a year before the other next gen consoles they had a pretty good head start i liked alot of the games, and that ps3 and wii shortage was a damn mess, wii ofc came back an stomped face since it was easy and fun for non traditional gamers, and once ps3 got its 3rd party support up they did good too

does kinda make me wonder tho, will we have to wait even longer in between w.e comes after xb, ps4, they better be careful with the long anticipated wait stuff, pc is already chipping away slowly

I liked the console initially but when I did the math I was a lil with how ms nicked and dimed me.

Console: 400
Live 60
Wifi adapter 100
Play and charge kit (was proprietary while Sony used mini usb like many cell phones did.) can't remember the cost tho.

And that's before you even got a game and another controller

Let's not forget the HD-DVD fiasco

But it was my first foray into online console gaming. I was amazed the first time I played a game with someone who wasn't beside me ( had done it on computer but never on console.)

First time I played music from my hdd while playing Madden 07

Remember downloading hella demos just to say I did, no more worrying about scratched disk!

And finally, no more.memory cards (didn't have an og ex box)

shyt was a game changer.

that music shyt was the best, i forgot about all those damn add ons play n charge etc boooo, hd dvd lol
