  • The Xbox 360 was finally succeeded by the Xbox One in 2013- but that wasn't the only console to launch that year, with the Xbox 360 E being a small, strange revision to the 360 S.

    Any of you ever have this Xbox? I'm half convinced it never existed, even though I, you know... actually own one now. But seriously, not sure why Microsoft decided to make the change from the 360 S, interesting stuff.

      Yes, I have one on my desk in front of me. The A/V is nice because it doesn't require a weird cable. I never had any memory cards, so I have no idea if that is important, and the USB on it is pretty nice.

    So I have this Xbox. My uncle died about 2 1/2 years ago and this was one of the things I received from him. I remember looking at it and being amazed at how different it was. I still use it to this day, keeping only mine and his Xbox accounts on it. It's sad to see his avatar forever asleep, But all his progress on there will live on. Thanks Uncle E, for all of the memories you've giving me before and after you left us.

    I bought my Xbox 360 E on release. Upgraded the hard drive and started playing Xbox games for the first time. Had a great time with it. Definitely felt like I got my money’s worth. I didn’t care for the Xbox One or PS4 when they released since my gaming PC was so far ahead already. This console allowed me to play exclusive 360 games I missed out during that generation since I was mostly a PC and PlayStation gamer. Love the console and am a proud owner to this day.

  • @TheRestartPoint
    @TheRestartPoint 2 ปีที่แล้ว +110

    The reasons they revise models : Cheaper to make (more profit) less power hungry (the E had unified chips and was less power hungry than the S) and minor improvements in reliability. I think its cool the E exists from a collectors view, you can buy a relatively recently made 360 that will be more reliable than buying the fat or S 360.

    • @shanez1215

    I know the main advantage of this model from Microsoft's perspective was that it was made much cheaper to manufacture. Why that wasn't initially reflected in the MSRP is beyond me (I guess they wanted it to still seem as "premium" as the S-model), but I eventually managed to buy one of these in a bundle that included a 320 GB HDD and 4 games (Halo 4 and Forza Horizon as physical, Need for Speed Rivals and some other game I can't remember as digital) for a mere $160. The retail prices of the games alone essentially covered the price of the whole bundle!

    A couple of points from someone who was there in the day, from the original Xbox 360 up to the 360E. The 360E was a really important machine and a god send. Why? Well, for most of us who had bought the original machine, we had gone through the pain of the "red rings of death" and countless unreliable machines. When the 360E came along it was the final version and all of the bugs had been fixed. It was quiet and ultra reliable - so much so that my kids are now playing on the machine today. It also enabled all of us who had accumulated a significant library to have a machine that could play that library for years to come. As when it's successor was released, backward compatibility was not being talked about. So the 360E was a really important machine, and we are lucky Microsoft made it.

    Ive owned every model of 360 at some point in time and this one was actually my favorite. I went through multiple of the first gens, even a couple of the black elite 120gbs due to the red ring of death. It just felt better, cleaner and overall just more reliable. I actually just picked up one of the Blue 500gb variants of the E Model since their are many titles that still aren't and won't become backwards compatible. So to me, the 360 is still to be desired even today, if you're looking to play a few of those unported older titles.

I'm in the market for one again because I want to modify one and an Xbox One X and Playstation 2, 3 and 4. By the way; the sticker warning against moving the console whilst in operation was because of a problem with the Xbox 360's disc drive. If a disc was inside and you moved the console, it'd scratch it to the point where it could be unplayable after. There is a quite famous video from the early 360 days of this happening and an awful sound made by the console lol

    I remember getting the 4gb model on black friday 2013 for $99 at WalMart, with the kinect (seperate) only being about $70. Little kid me thought this was an amazing deal, as my only exposure to an xbox was at my friend's house. The guy there warned us that the new one was about to launch, but in my mind that was irrelevant because my friends all had 360s, so I'd need a 360 to play with them. My friend got an xbox one for christmas. Felt kinda stupid, but as a kid, $99 was a lot of money (saving up for over a year), and back-compat was pretty grim on launch. Wasn't until 2017 that I got a one s. And last year I got a launch day (kinda) series X. Say what you will about its looks, but the 360 E will always be beautiful to me.
