The worst is when they have a fully functioning ps2 emulator that you can’t use without re purchasing every game one by one.

They got really greedy there. Instead of allowing users to insert a PS2 disc and play, no.. they demand we buy it again.

Microsoft doesn't have great exclusive games, but they have a solid library of games.

That game had a shit-ton of DLCs though I think you could just unlock by playing it.

I was hoping for any of the old NCAA football games, pref the last one -2014, I hate pulling out my 360 just to play some college football. I have orig 360 Disc but won't play in the xbox one, booo!

I think they do have great exclusive games, maybe not as many compared to Sony and Nintendo but still very good games.

Gears, Forza MotorSport, Forza Horizon, Halo, and that pirates game? I don't care too much about exclusives, I prefer the games.

That's cool, although it's not enough to make me buy an Xbox console.

And the PS2 emulation quality is subpar at best, a lot of games like Jak and Dexter have slowdown and audio crackling issues.

The ps3 or ps4? The ps3 uses a stand alone emulator on the system while the ps4 uses an emulator that comes with the game itself.

And PS2 demo discs don't work either.

There's a way to make them work, using a patch, but I'm not sure if it's cfw only or not.

PS4, emulating PS2 games, not that great IMO

Things would be even better if this anniversary included Driver: San Fransisco back on the Xbox Store.

Ace_Axel · Nov 16, 2021

Aw, nutbunnies. JSRF is not on the list. Gonna have to look into emulating my copy then.

Yes, emulation on both systems is very game specific.

God I miss the old Xbox menu. I have a bunch of modded Xboxes and I wish I remembered if there was a custom main menu that was like the original.

If you mean the blades, fsd1 and a custom theme will bring them back on the 360.

I mean the old green alien goop menu from the OG xboxes

They didnt fix anything from the unoptimized unplayable lag fest of the flighting in october.

Halo infinite runs like dogshit on anything less than a 3080. Lucky to hit 30 Fps on anything lower.

Its so bad that Real life feels like a 200+ fps game after 10 minutes trying to play that piece of shit shovelware.

Yep, but you can also run a custom firmware on X360 system , like FSD, and have it boot up the orig xbox "green alien goop" video on boot also, if that's your sweet stick....

edit: yea like @godreborn mentioned

Ah didn't know about that. I haven't had a modded 360 in ages so I'm out of the loop. I need to get my hands on another one some day.
