These Are The Things That People Remember About Xbox Consoles

Kotaku: "The new Xbox has been revealed: it's Xbox One. Seems like a good time to reminisce on our memories about the Xbox (be it the 360 or the original), right? Appropriately, the #xboxmemories tag was trending on Twitter earlier, right before the reveal. Here's some of what people remember about Xbox consoles."

when we had to buy a special remote to watch dvds on xbox1.

it's sad when memories consist of the "first" time my 360 red ringed. that's implying there were plenty of times it happened to these people.

the first time a game got that awful ring scratch on it when you stand the 360 upright and it rocks.

That first...Bleep Bloop achievement sound I got for Gears.

And lol at that fake Kaz tweet.

Perhaps the greatest memory I'll have of the Xbox 360 is that it isn't the Xbox One.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

Michiel19891h ago

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
