I'm kinda in awkward situation right now. There was a time where my PS4 sat there, while I was playing a lot of Xbox 360 and PC / Steam titles. I even bought Transformers: Devastation for the Xbox 360 since it's the cheapest version on the market, but more and more I want to play on the PS4 / PC. My 360 is definately gonna get shelfed after I finish that game.
Having said that, for real. The Xbox 360 in particular was one special console. I jumped in pretty early in 2006, as I think I mentioned before. Wasn't gonna make the same mistake a few years back, when I stuck with the Sega Dreamcast all the way till late 2004. I bought a used original Xbox. One of those times I wish I had picked either the PS2 or the Gamecube at that time. Getting an og Xbox late in the cycle was a bad idea, plus none of the games I played made that much of an impression.
In a weird sad way, I was 'bout to give up gaming in general, if it wasn't for Shadow the Hedgehog. As flawed it was, it kinda helped me get back into games. I also played Sonic Heroes and Sonic Riders. As well as the Sonic Mega Collection. Otogi too. Can't remember much else, sadly.
OG Xbox, done. The 360 was a joy ride. The first three games I owned were Sonic '06, Enchanted Arms and Condemned. Man, so many memories. Opened up to playing sandbox games, played a lot of fun RPGs, played online a few times. Had arguably the best Sonic game in a decade (Sonic Generations) and discovered the Saints Row franchise.
Thanks for the memories, X360.
