“Happy Birthday, Xbox.”
The first Xbox game I remember getting hooked to was Halo 3 back on 360, and it felt so different from so many other FPS games. After playing it at my bros house is when I decided to jump into the then-current generation and got myself one. I remember turning on my non-updated 360 and seeing the blades UI.
After I got it connected to the internet a month or 2 later I needed to update to the NXE dashboard, with this video playing before I got to the actual dashboard.
I have so much nostalgia for the 360 from games like Halo 3 and CoD4 to things like Soulcalibur 4 and Phantasy Star Universe. Avatar games like 1 vs. 100 and Doritos Crash Course were super solid too.
I don’t have as much nostalgic-like memories for the Xbox One gen but the moves they’re making along with Game Pass reminding me of Sega Channel makes me more excited for the brand than I ever have been!
