Re: Talking Point: In Your Opinion, What Made The Xbox 360 Era So Incredible?

LX_FENIX

Everyone else is saying it because it's the obvious answer, the games.
Halo 3, 4, ODST, Reach, CE Anniversary
Gears trilogy and Judgement
Fable 2 and 3
Mass Effect trilogy
Assassin's Creed 1 through Rogue
Crackdown 1 and 2
Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey
Oblivion and Skyrim
Fallout 3 and New Vegas
Bioshock trilogy
Perfect Dark and Banjo 1 and 2 remasters
Final Fantasy 13 trilogy
The Witcher 2
Plus the endless supply of games via XBLA

Not all masterpieces or exclusives, but the 360 and that era alone was filled with so many amazing games and almost all of them were on the 360

Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?

The only teeny tiny chance of Nintendo i wound think would be Bayonetta, since they have given up on exclusive publishing in the past like with Fatal Frame, but that's 99.9 percent chance not gonna happen.

Never in a million years with Sony. Their philosophy in games has always been to hurt the competition no matter what, and they continue to do business that way to this day.

Re: Xbox 'Encouraged' Console Wars During The 360 Era, Says Former Exec

Xbox began its downward slope after Peter Moore left. He was not afraid to compete even after the PS2 was the best selling console ever. And when his aggressive attitude came back to bite him (red ring) he took responsibility and did what was right for Xbox customers.

When you look at the people in charge at the big companies at the time (Peter Moore, Jack Tretton, Reggie/Iwata) it's clear why it was such a great generation.

Looter shooters usually aren't my thing but something about The First Descendant looks really cool to me so I'll be checking it out.

I'll be taking a look at Blue Protocol as well, never heard of it until now but it looks like it could be really good and it's surprising since games like that almost always skip Xbox.

Re: Talking Point: Has Xbox Done A Good Job With Gears Of War So Far?

@RBRTMNZ Damn man, talk to me before you roast me 😂 I don't think Kait is THAT bad, but seeing her go in that direction was disappointing since there was so much more that could have been done with her with everything going on.

And my name predates Gears. He has his moments but I've never been a big Marcus fan, even in the original trilogy.

The writing has been so inconsistent. JD was super bland in 4 but Kait was really interesting. Then in 5 JD has a very interesting arc that all happens off screen while Kait became a typical "angry female protagonist". Del is pretty bland all around and Fahz is a great lovable douche bag, but again we dont get to see much of him cause his story is told, not shown. Not to mention them killing Anya off screen, that still infuriates me.
