NowGamer: PLAY Magazine News Editor, Jon Gordon, defines the meaning of one of the most over-used expressions in fandom...
Xbox 360 launched 18 years ago and was a generation-defining console that invited many people to jump into gaming for the first time and connect with friends around the world. We’re thrilled people continue playing their favorite Xbox 360 games on Xbox 360, or on newer consoles via Backward Compatibility for supported titles.
"we believe in game preservation"
Remember the media reaction when PlayStation wanted to shut down the PS3 store (but then kept it open)... where is that reaction here?
RIP Xbox 360 digital store and all its games.
It really grinds my gears that they are waiting till 10 days before closing to give the best discounts and the list as of now is 100 or less titles from the massive 360 library
I should have enough points by the weekend to get £25 credit off MS, (hardly ever spend money on xb1), might look at a few of these.
The Xbox 360 store was one of the only advantages the Xbox Series consoles had over the PS5. When I got my series X, I spent more playing Xbox 360 games vs current-gen Xbox games since that was the golden era for Xbox and several titles had enhancements such as 4k resolution and fps boost.
Closing this store will now only benefit the competition.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
david cage metioned also about heavy rain the 360 would struggle and nomura is making vs 13 exclusive to the ps3 because hes going further with the graphics and the 360 just cant do and 360 is nearly 5 years now and still dont have a game to top uncharted 1 and most of theres games this year have been running sub like alan wake splinter cell final fantasy but most of those games i metioned are multiplatform
Absolutley nothing. Kojima said MGS4 couldn't be done on the 360 yet MGS:R graphics surpass it and Rage and Crysis 2 surpass anything currently out and they are multiplat. In a year or two of anyone saying that they always look foolish.
It's best that PS devs just keep quiet, for their sake.
@FangBlade
You would say that since you love your PS3 to death. But tell me a game only on PS3 that is open world, runs at 60fps and looks like Rage? Cause i bet you can't. And Crysis 2 looks miles better than K3, I mean for one it has colour, that alone makes it more impressive lol.
Cell shaded eh? Thats how you gonna spin it eh? Its called art style. What bout Uncharted then? It could only get those graphics by looking like a cartoon :)
I suppose games like uncharted and god of war cold be done in a 360, if they scaled back alot of things, placed it on multiple discs, and specifcially engineered for-
ahh, wat the hell am i saying. It just cant.
Just my opinion but I believe it means it cannot be done on the 360, possibly?
best console graphics ever
KZ2
god of war 3
uncharted 2
despite x360 1 year more on market and much easier to program for because architecture is 95% similar to pc and better graphics card than ps3's
