1997 to 2007 was my favorite decade for gaming. Xbox 360 was an amazing console, basically made indie games on consoles a thing with Xbox Arcade. Too bad Microsoft screwed it all up with the Xbox One. The Xbox One sucking made me convert to PC gaming.
It is so weird to see the Xbox 360 and the PS3 become retro consoles. I grew up in the 90's, Microsoft and Sony were making their cassette players and word processors. For the longest time Nintendo and Sega were the retro consoles, but here we are, now is you time to feel like old.
@@andrewmah2962 I think it was digital foundry that said it but I still like it. We sorta peaked with graphics at the 360/ps3 era and now we're just trying to make those same games but run better.
I played the 360 a LOT with friends all through high school from 2009 to 2012. Hours and hours of Halo 3 and Black Ops. I bought a 360 with controllers earlier in the year to play old games. My friends come over every weekend to play Zombies.
the first dashboard was so nice man. i still miss how that thing looks and sounds to this day. reminds me of hiding report cards and erasing teachers notes so i could play gears of war on the weekends.
The Wii was my first console, and I even waited in line for it outside of Circuit City as a kid. But even though I got my 360 in 2011 I had so much fun playing split screen with my cousin and relatives, Halo 3, Reach, and Gears 3 in particular. Makes me sad that split screen has been abandoned, it’s what made me get a 360.
I didn't grow up Halo or COD, but I had lots of fun playing a ton of lego games and Minecraft with my brothers. My also got a kenect, which we had a racing games that barely worked, and a starwars game.
I was in high school when Halo 3 launched and to this day I've never seen a game launch like it. There must of been 75 people outside of GameCrazy waiting to get Halo 3 on launch night. Meeting people and talking about not only Halo but other games they were playing like Gears of War. I also remember how hard it was to get a 360 at launch due to insane demand but got one a few weeks later after launch. I recall getting Perfect dark zero, PGR3 and COD 2 for Christmas that year and loving it. Good times.
Started on the 360 on Christmas of 2012, age 5, playing forza motorsport 4, black ops l and ll, halo 4, etc. 16 years old and in highschool, still playing the 360. The nostalgia hits hard 😭
i was 6 (or 7 i think) when i played my xbox 360 the most (im 14 now), introduced me into the sonic adventure games and minecraft. without this system i probably wouldnt have actually played the adventure games or minecraft until way later
I miss the people I used to play with too, thinking about it makes me sad too I wonder where they all are. I hope they’re doing okay. We gotta think about how we were lucky to be able to experience such good memories
I also think the general advertising for video games at the time was massive. Billboards, constant tv commercials, banners, the food promotions, etc. When a big release came out everyone knew about it. Nowadays it's like "Oh, that came out already?". And the commercials weren't just pushing the games but also the console and the brand associated. How many Kevin Butler ads did you see, you know? Not to mention E3 and how much of a blast a lot of people had up until the closing years of it. I think that sense of community is lost and way to divided and opinionated.
perfectly said, I agree 100%. that happened to me when Starfield came out, I was like “huh it’s out?!” 😂 it’s a very different industry than how it used to be
Xbox 360 Midnight launch events was really on a different level. with midnight launch events such as Halo and Cod. It was like a huge community party at Gamestop when a new halo or cod was released. Another thing was that you could find xbox 360 games at varied supermarket(Heck even some bookstore in my town sold xbox 360 games) at a 10-20$ game shelf with barely exist today.
The 4th-7th generations of gaming was beyond amazing. After that... meh. I don't have many memories before the 4th (born in 83, started playing video games around 1990 with the Game Boy)
Aqua, Undertow, and Ms. Splosion Man were some of my favorite games from XBLA. I remember my mom got a ton of free games from McDonalds as my kids meal toy since they were going to toss them but I asked her if she could get them for me and I had a lot of fun playing them. It was my introduction to indie games and I had a lot of fun playing them and hanging out with my dogs who liked the boats and howled at the evil squids. Minecraft and Portal 2 were also fun, but I remember Xbox most for MW3 and Star Wars the Force Unleashed. Fun times.
Bruv, Halo visuals with DK64 in the background. You know how to make a man want to get some consoles out of a box. The GameCube to 360 era was the last golden age we had, back then there’d be like a dozen good games a year back-to-back. These days you hope for maybe one game a year to not be a cashgrab “live service” hellhole. I’ve been on a Halo lore kick recently and was looking at the Master Chief Collection, but they don’t have a physical version for PC. I thought: “Hey, I’ve got multiple 360s in a closet, one of ‘em still has a cd drive that works… I hope…” 🧐
Owner of a late 2007 Elite Falcon revision which had its defective GPU (main reason for RRoD) replaced by Microsoft in late 2010, still works like new and damn is it a good looking thing
360 era was a blast and i am lucky to have been able to experience it from the very beginning when the 360 first came out, even if i got console banned for no reason and had to get a new a year or two after lol
I miss those nights playing Xbox till 4 am grinding on black ops 2 with my friends trying to get the diamond camos on our snipers because we were FaZe clan fanboys back when they actually used to play COD .. ahhhh good times.
I have series s and bought all my favorite games digital and they are from the 360 era. I have started to buy them physical for 360/ps3 for retro setup.
The 2000s as a whole were IMO the golden age of gaming... but the reasons why I think that are a bit different from, and run somewhat counter to, yours. For me, the PS2/GC/Xbox era and the early PS3/360/Wii era were the pinnacle of offline gaming, a time when the design philosophies that arose in the '90s were continually refined and reached their purest form. For me, there was a continuous progression of each new system being better than the last. The PS2 felt like a huge leap over the PS1, and the PS3 felt like just as big a leap over the PS2. Games felt like they were constantly getting better, giving me more for my money with each new generation. OTOH, I've never been nostalgic for online gaming at any point. I was always a PlayStation guy growing up and never had an Xbox, so I'm probably biased here, but I always saw online multiplayer as side content, even when I was in high school and Xbox Live was taking over. Looking back, I always felt like the late '00s, while still a high point for gaming that produced some stone-cold classics, was the beginning of the end when all the money-grubbing garbage we now hate about gaming in general and online gaming in particular was first starting to dig in its claws. (Horse armor, anyone?) And honestly, looking back at how the internet in general has gone to hell since the '00s, I think it was inevitable that online multiplayer would have the negative effects on gaming that it did. Even in the '90s, it was becoming normal for PC games and other software to be shipped unfinished with the knowledge that any bugs could be patched later. Once you had consoles with modems and hard drives, that attitude was normalized throughout the industry. I can't help but cringe nowadays when I see all the utopian promise that people associated with the internet back then, knowing now that, while it did provide us new ways to communicate with each other and distribute independent media, it also became a new frontier for bare-faced greed and lowest-common-denominator garbage. The PS4/Xbox One era was the first console generation where I didn't immediately feel a truly groundbreaking improvement over the prior generation. Yes, the graphics were better, and the worlds were bigger. But this was also the era when day-one patches, microtransactions, always-online games, and "games as a service" became increasingly normal, and when publishers increasingly realized just how far they could go with them. The technology was there, but fewer and fewer people were making use of it. Then again, I was born in 1990, so it might just be my own Y2K-era PS2 nostalgia talking.
one demo game that was great to play was predator vs alien. the demo play had a 3 level room where you could pick to fight as a marine or alien or a predator, and this wasnt on the actual game either, only on the demo,sometimes all the predators would teamup and fight all the alien players or all the marine players. other times it was every man for himself, or every alien for himself haha,xbox took this game demo off the store very early on which i felt made it lose many players to play with online.
I was late to the xbox party regarding xbox live but I always grew up on xbox. But it doesn't matter when it happens, it matters that were able to experience the glory the 360 had to offer
I'd play Forza horizon 1 is sadly now the multiplayer is shut down but playing on Xbox for all of those years I still talk to the same knuckleheads I mat since 2016 🤣also along the way reconnected with old friends from that game too 👍
I had a hand me down Xbox 360 which my older brother originally owned, and since it was technically mine now I pretty much did stuff to the avatar which I barely knew how to function since I only knew how to play games on the wii, I usually got home from school got a snack or a drink while playing skate 3 or skylanders and skylanders giants, but nonetheless the Xbox 360 was awesome but I made the terrible mistake of giving away my Xbox 360 for a new one, I hope I find another Xbox 360 soon
Those memories of coming home after school and hopping on are unmatched. I also made that same mistake of giving my Xbox away, seriously one of my biggest regrets even if I have a replacement 😭
i had some epic matches on the 360 with battlestations midway demo. the demo was actually better than the game and up to 8 people could play on xboxlive, 4-4.sometimes i would play 4 vs 1. and i would beat all 4 by myself,i would get some of the best players i could find and some of our matches lasted 1 hour. best thing about that game is you didnt die and have to respawn so much like in most games. a battleship could last you a long time if you were a good player.i remember one match i lost a teammate because his shipyard was destroyed, so i gave him a squadron of my airplane fighters from my carrier. to help me out. and we won the game.he bombed the shipyards while their battleships were chasing my carriers down the map.
Then to expand on the downloading games and updates thing. It almost makes you not want to buy games if you don’t have good internet. When I buy a game and I can’t play because it has to install for 6 hours
I grew up on Xbox 360,PS2 and WII but me and my brother wanted a xbox one and we got rid of the 360 for money but I still regret that decision to this day
Im just really glad i never grew up with a 360 i really didn't like all this instead i grew up with the original xbox cuz my big sister gave it to me when i was 3 and then played halo ce and 2 my best memories of all time can you make a video about the original xbox for the ones who grew up with it
Digital gaming is convenient, but it's killed the fun factor we had meeting new people at launch events and those types of experiences. Truly the last great generation of gaming
6:54 i might be wrong but idunno, games are too complex for the current standard of discs that microsoft and sony use for their consoles. the way they work *I THINK* is that on the 360 the game would be ran off the disc while it offloads some stuff onto ram. the issue with that is that nowadays games are too big and complex for this to reliably work, there IS a game on the disc, but if it was ran exclusively off the disc loading screens would take forever because the disc cant be read from fast enough. this is why the console has to download stuff from the disc, the only reason it "needs an internet connection" is usually to download updates and patches that arent already in the disc
it is a little saddening looking back on awesome days in gaming but just remember that we had the chance to be a apart of that! when I get that nostalgia sadness I remind myself that at least we were able to be there to experience it
As a kid me and my brother grew up with Nintendo but when was about 11 years old my old cousin gave me his 360 and me and my brother went ti GameStop and bought sonic generations and sega sonic classic collection. And oh man did me and my brother love the 360! It had a street fighter demo and another one called assault hereos. Me and my brother also made each other laugh with the avatars. Xbox 360 is definitely my one of my favorite consoles of all time and it's si nostalgia. I wish i could've played it when it had voice chat 😂
PlayStation kinda had the same nostalgia as Xbox, with PlayStation Home… I had a clan/family that we would meet up on the weekend because hats when most of us were free and we’d chat and play for hours. I remember when I broke my ps3 controller from rage I begged my mom to buy me those cheap plastic glow up co trollers that we’re bad to play with lol
@@Jackopher oh i found it its all good but basically what happened was i forgot the password to the email and this email is like 10 years old with no one using it so i had to contact microsoft for the email recovery
All I did was security play GTA play Minecraft and scream at "big year olds" I called them big year olds because I heard my friend say it and I thought it was cool and my sister being a dumba## and broke our first Xbox360 and we were poor back then so it took us a little bit to get a new one
You just can’t make friends in multiplayer lobby’s anymore usually no one is talking or it’s just some kids screaming I remember this old guy shouting Spartan jumper everytime I killed him on mw 🤣
trash talking and people yelling in the mic at each other in a random lobby was such a fun part of playing games, I wish more people would turn their mics on

Forgot to mention the Xbox Magazines, I'd always pick them up in store and would read them for hours on road trips or something
My brother would always get gaming magazines that you could subscribe to and get mailed. They were awesome
2007-2012 golden era of gaming

left for dead ah the memories

Mw2. 2009. Playing golden age cod on a beautiful console. 2k9, I was soo young I wish I could go back
I had the chatpad for phantasy star online. Good times!
The media player for CDs was amazing and you could burn it onto the console for free. I loved the 360 era so much. I still play my 360 to this day.
2007-2014, i remember when i was 7-8 playing the original skylanders on the xbox360. 😢
Me too, I was so hyped unboxing skylanders spyros adventure on Christmas. Playing with the figures in game was so awesome for the first time
I still use this system and play PvZ and Peggle vs mode on there with my sister
I cry every time i play on my 360. It hits to hard. I miss everyone i use to play with. I wish i could back. I still have ApocZ on my 360

Golden era of Xbox 360 2009-2014
Missed opportunity to include the soulja Boy Video For the chatpad where shows it off
Sadly, i grew up with a wii and shit so big sad 😢
The Wii was awesome. Wii sports and Mario kart was where I spent most my time. And don’t forget that weird ass m&ms game 😭
if playstation makes a avatar system like the 360 and make games for it and be able to see freinds avatars like 360 that seals the console debate
Digital gaming is convenient, but it's killed the fun factor we had meeting new people at launch events and those types of experiences. Truly the last great generation of gaming
Goated console
6:54 i might be wrong but idunno, games are too complex for the current standard of discs that microsoft and sony use for their consoles. the way they work *I THINK* is that on the 360 the game would be ran off the disc while it offloads some stuff onto ram. the issue with that is that nowadays games are too big and complex for this to reliably work, there IS a game on the disc, but if it was ran exclusively off the disc loading screens would take forever because the disc cant be read from fast enough. this is why the console has to download stuff from the disc, the only reason it "needs an internet connection" is usually to download updates and patches that arent already in the disc
as a kid i learned so many curse words
Who else rocked the itachi outfit for the avatar ?
I have memories of not having gold and having to ask friends for those free trial pamphlets or free weekends
I remember scrounging through my old cases finding trials too 😭
@@Jackopher not enough games came with them lmao
Bro, this made me so sad :(
it is a little saddening looking back on awesome days in gaming but just remember that we had the chance to be a apart of that! when I get that nostalgia sadness I remind myself that at least we were able to be there to experience it
I remember when Minecraft launched. Everyone kind of knew it was going to be huge.
Cant forget e3 as well
Saddest day ever when Halo 3 shut down its servers
As a kid me and my brother grew up with Nintendo but when was about 11 years old my old cousin gave me his 360 and me and my brother went ti GameStop and bought sonic generations and sega sonic classic collection. And oh man did me and my brother love the 360! It had a street fighter demo and another one called assault hereos. Me and my brother also made each other laugh with the avatars. Xbox 360 is definitely my one of my favorite consoles of all time and it's si nostalgia. I wish i could've played it when it had voice chat 😂
Rip Xbox 360 😢
It’s the end of an era now
The ring of death tho :((
absolutely tragic
i have fond memories with the 360 than the ps5
PlayStation kinda had the same nostalgia as Xbox, with PlayStation Home… I had a clan/family that we would meet up on the weekend because hats when most of us were free and we’d chat and play for hours.
I remember when I broke my ps3 controller from rage I begged my mom to buy me those cheap plastic glow up co trollers that we’re bad to play with lol
I'm trying so hard to sign into my old xbox account if anyone had any idea on what I should do or if you have connections with Microsoft pls tell me
what happens when you try signing in?
@@Jackopher oh i found it its all good but basically what happened was i forgot the password to the email and this email is like 10 years old with no one using it so i had to contact microsoft for the email recovery
My brother had an Xbox 360 and he decided to give it to me instead of giving it away so you can kinda say i inherited my brother's Xbox 360 im 13 btw
Enjoy it. Back when gaming was good.
Nice
Nice
All I did was security play GTA play Minecraft and scream at "big year olds" I called them big year olds because I heard my friend say it and I thought it was cool and my sister being a dumba## and broke our first Xbox360 and we were poor back then so it took us a little bit to get a new one
You just can’t make friends in multiplayer lobby’s anymore usually no one is talking or it’s just some kids screaming I remember this old guy shouting Spartan jumper everytime I killed him on mw 🤣
trash talking and people yelling in the mic at each other in a random lobby was such a fun part of playing games, I wish more people would turn their mics on
I literally think in the 5th grade my balls dropped cause I played skyrim
where boys became dragonborn 🫡
He's a real question ask ur self why the party chat works on 360 but not ps4
not everybody grew up with 7th gen consoles. if your in your 20s u grew up with 6 gen consoles
Aye Jack I'll beat you into the dirt on doritos crash course. 1v1 me boi 😹
you probably would, I haven't touched that game in years lmfaoo
@@Jackopher Me neither lol
